Washer Kit

The DANA-SPICER Washer Kit (MPN 701166X) is a thrust washer assembly specifically designed for Dana 60 rear axle systems. It is engineered to control end-play and lateral movement of drivetrain components, making it ideal for mechanics, restoration specialists, and off-road enthusiasts. This kit is essential for maintaining drivetrain integrity and longevity in heavy-duty truck and 4x4 applications.

Constructed from high-strength steel with a natural (uncoated) finish, this thrust washer is manufactured to OEM specifications for precise fitment and load distribution. Its steel composition ensures resistance to shear forces and rotational stresses inherent in Dana 60 differentials. The washer's precise thickness maintains critical clearances between rotating and stationary components, preventing axial shaft movement that could lead to binding, noise, and accelerated wear.

Dana 60 owners undertaking differential rebuilds, overhauls, or maintenance will find this washer kit beneficial for controlling end-play. Installation requires removal of the carrier assembly and is commonly paired with bearing cups, shims, and seals as part of a comprehensive rear axle service. This compact washer, weighing 0.09 lbs, is a cost-effective solution for eliminating play without requiring full component replacement.
