Detent Center .970in

The Jerico Detent Center .970in (part number JER-0050) is a precision detent pin engineered for Jerico transmission systems. This 0.97-inch steel component manages gear synchronization and detent positioning, ensuring smooth shift engagement and reliable gear retention under load. Built from steel in natural finish, the detent center is a critical internal component for anyone rebuilding, servicing, or maintaining a Jerico transmission.

Detent pins function as mechanical locks that hold the transmission in the selected gear, preventing unwanted shifting during acceleration, braking, or off-road driving. The .970-inch specification and steel construction of this Jerico detent center provide the exact tolerances and hardness required for consistent performance in high-torque environments. At just 0.02 lbs, it integrates seamlessly into the transmission assembly without adding measurable weight. Proper detent function is essential for transmission longevity; worn or damaged pins result in gear slip, missed shifts, and accelerated wear on synchronizers.

This detent center is designed for transmission rebuilders, performance enthusiasts, and shop technicians working with Jerico transmission components. Whether performing routine maintenance, upgrading to a higher-performance transmission setup, or addressing shift quality issues, having the correct OEM-equivalent detent pin on hand eliminates delays and ensures factory-specification reassembly. Compatibility is specific to Jerico transmission models; verify fitment with your transmission documentation before ordering.

Detent systems are often overlooked until problems appear. A single worn pin can compromise the entire shift feel and reliability of the transmission. TacticalSurplusUSA stocks OEM and equivalent transmission components to support serious rebuild and maintenance work, ensuring you have access to the exact parts needed for correct reassembly.
