Metric pinion markings


Recommended Posts

Hello all, just thought I'd share this little tip with you guys so you don't have to go through the same ordeal as I did, if you ever install new gears. I bought mine from Rockauto, they are Dana SVL series. I had a " + .10" on my new gears, so I figured I needed to remove 10 thou from the nominal pinion depth... Wrong!!!! After a lot of research, turns out there is also metric markings, and apparrently, the SVL series gears are made in India instead of America, which may explain the metric markings instead of the classic ones. Here's a PDF from Dana-Spicer for gear installation, which includes both classic and metric marking charts. Hope it helps, cheers!!!!
