Compatible Models

We do our best to list all compatible models. Although this may be the part you need, your exact model may not appear below.

Compatible equipment / model
  • Ford F-250 Super Duty Dana 50 / 60 front axle (1998-2004; verify build)
  • Ford F-350 Super Duty Dana 50 / 60 front axle (1998-2004)
  • Ford F-450 / F-550 Super Duty front axle (1999-2004; verify axle)
  • Ford Excursion Dana 50 / 60 front axle (2000-2005)
  • Leaf-spring front axle applications only

Product Overview

During hub, bearing, U-joint, or axle-shaft service, a missing or worn thrust washer and snap ring can leave the outer shaft with incorrect endplay. This kit restores the retention hardware at the wheel end after the spindle and hub components are inspected.

The rings and washers do not repair damaged axle grooves, worn hubs, incorrect shafts, or a vacuum-hub fault. Dana 50 and Dana 60 applications must still match the original hardware and axle build.

Verify axle type, leaf-spring front suspension, hub design, quantity needed, and washer/ring dimensions. Some model-year catalogs begin at 1999 even when late-1998 production is listed.

Compatibility Notice

Northline Parts does its best to list all known compatible models, but the correct part may fit an application that is not shown above.

Match the original part, reference number, dimensions, connectors, mounting points, and product photos before purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can this stop front-end play? A: Only if the play comes from missing or worn retention hardware; bearings, hubs, ball joints, and shafts must also be checked.

Q: Is it for independent front suspension trucks? A: No. The researched application is the leaf-spring Dana 50 / 60 front axle.

Q: Does one kit service both sides? A: Confirm the quantity shown in the listing against the hardware required per wheel end.

Q: Is this an original-equipment part? A: No. This is a new aftermarket product. Brand names and part numbers are used only to identify compatible applications.
