Starter ring gear attached to a flywheel. In cars with a manual transmission, the starter ring gear is fitted to the outer diameter of the flywheel.The ring gear is usually fixed to the flywheel through use of an interference fit, [2] which is achieved by heating the ring gear and so that thermal expansion allows it to be placed around the flywheel.
The Dana/Spicer Model 80 is an automotive axle manufactured by Dana Holding Corporation and has been used in OEM heavy duty applications by Chevrolet, Dodge, and Ford.It can be identified by its straight axle tubes, 10 bolt asymmetrical cover, and a "80" cast into the housing.
This ring and pinion is significantly stronger with a better pinion to ring gear tooth contact patch and angle. It was typically used in the back of jeep JKs, Isuzus and Nissan pickups. This ring and pinion does share some components and can be adapted into an earlier Dana 44 but requires some work, different bearings and spacers.
Distinguishing it from the GM 14-bolt 9.5-inch ring gear rear differential is the latter's utilization of C-clips to retain axles, differing from the free-floating axle mechanism of its heavy-duty counterpart.
The 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor utilizes an AdvanTEK M235 (not Dana 50) solid rear axle with a 235mm (9.25 in) ring gear and electronic locking differential. The ratio is 4.70:1. [2] The 2023+ Ford Super Duty F-250 and F-350 come equipped with the Dana Advantek M235 (not Dana 50) front axle in high pinion configuration.
Eaton manufactures the differential and Dana manufactures the rest of the axle. The S110 model follows a newer nomenclature for Dana axles. The "S" meaning: single rear axle. The first "1" representing gear reduction type, the second representing the head assembly series and the last "0" representing the design level.
A variation of the Dana 60 known as a Dana 61 was made to accommodate gear ratios that allowed for better fuel mileage. This was done as a direct result of the 1973 oil crisis. A 3.07:1 gear ratio was common for these axles and unachievable in a regular Dana 60. To allow for the different gearing, the Dana 61 had a greater pinion offset.
AMC 20s have an 8 7/8" ring gear and use a 29 spline axle shaft. The AMC 20 was most often used with V8 engines in cars and Jeeps.
