1994-1996 Knuckles have two bolt style calipers and 6 bolts holding the spindle to knuckle.1987-1992 Knuckles have tension pin style calipers and 6 bolts holding the spindle to knuckle.
1993 Knuckles have tension pin style calipers and 5 bolts holding the spindle to knuckle. 1980-1985 Knuckles have bolt on calipers and 6 bolts holding the spindle to knuckle. If for some reason you need to replace a spindle, you need to be sure that your ordering one that matches the one your replacing. 1993-1996 – These spindles use a different size inner bearing, and the ABS versions of these spindles have holes cut in to the flange for the sensors. 1987-1988 – These spindles ares completely different and shorter to work with the flange style locking hubs. 1980-1992 – These spindles are basically the same, but the keyway slot is cut past the threads on one of them. Not all Dana 44 TTB spindles are the same. Type 3: 1993-1996 gear carriers used a c-clip to retain the axle, used different bearings and seals than 1980-1992 (Types 1 & 2). Type 2: 1982-1992 gear carriers used a c-clip to retain the axle, used different bearings and seals than 1980-1982 or 1993-1996 (Types 1 & 3). Type 1: 1980-1982 gear carriers used a bolt on axle retainer, used different bearings and seals than 1982-1996 (Types 2 & 3). Seal for the other side of the diff is 40710ĭana 44s are reverse rotation hi-pinion. Most are a 3.50 gear from the factory. A new carrier is needed for gears lower (numerically higher) than 3.92. Here’s the Spicer part numbers for the bolt in parts if anyone is interested: This is what you would likely see if you were to crawl under one of these trucks and look: This is permanent fix to that problem if you can find the housing with the bolt in shaft still in place. Some people put a spring in the passenger side slip yoke to keep pressure on the shaft so it stays in place. Why would you want this setup? Because you don’t have to worry about a broken c-clip, and the shaft sliding out of the housing when the suspension flexes off-road. The photo below shows the difference between the passenger side axle shaft that is held in with a c-clip, and the one that is bolted in. You’ll notice that the housing on the right has a much larger opening to allow for a bearing, and the whole assembly is retained by (3) bolts. In the photo below, you can see the typical housing on the left that the passenger side axle shaft slides in to, and then the shaft is retained internally with a c-clip. It seems that the 1980-1983 Dana 44 TTB and Dana 50 TTB trucks that were equipped with a front limited slip differential also came with a unique housing that held the passenger side axle shaft in externally with (3) bolts. 1983-1996 Passenger side axle shafts (intermediate) are all the same (24.77 inches). 1980-1982 Passenger side axle shafts (intermediate) are different to accommodate bolt on inner shaft. #96 ford explorer limited edition ride height switch diagram driver
1980-1996 Driver side inner shafts are all the same (15.77 inches).1977-1988 Outers (stub shaft at spindle) is not the same as the above listed 1980-1996 shafts.1980-1996 Outers (stub shaft at spindle) are all the same unless it’s a 1987-1988 with flange style hubs (9.81 inches).

The Dana 44 TTB uses the same locking hubs, except for some 1987-1988 models.įor some reason in 1987-1988, Ford used a one piece flange style manual locking hub similar to the ones found on the Ford Ranger & Explorer. Most people are familiar with the locking hubs on Dana 44 axles. The inboard ends of the beams are attached to a frame-mounted crossmember by a bushing, while the outboard ends support the steering knuckles and are attached to the frame through the springs and radius arms. Mechanically, the TTB axle is similar to a straight axle, but instead of a solid axle tube, the differential and steering knuckles are attached to beams. The TTB system is Fords version of an independent front suspension, and was used on the Ford Bronco from 1980-1996. In 1980 the Bronco went from a straight Dana 44 front axle to what Ford calls the Twin Traction Beam (TTB) front suspension.
