Product Overview
35-217R Differential Carrier Bearing Kit is a new independent aftermarket service kit for carrier-bearing and sealing service across selected 140-series tandem and single drive axles. A differential carrier depends on correctly matched bearing surfaces, stable preload, accurate alignment, and effective sealing to keep the ring-and-pinion assembly rotating smoothly. It is suited to overhaul work where bearing noise, excess end play, heat, rough rotation, or lubricant leakage points to worn carrier support components.
This package groups related wear items for professional axle repair and driveline rebuilding. It does not change the axle ratio, carrier design, or installation procedure.

Service and Fitment Guidance
Confirm whether the vehicle uses a tandem or single version of the listed axle family and compare every removed bearing, cup, and seal before installation. Part-number matching alone is not enough because axle revisions, carrier positions, production changes, and previous repairs can affect the required components. Check the vehicle axle tag, service information, component markings, outside and inside diameters, widths, seal profiles, and the physical layout of the removed set.
- Inspect bearing journals, cups, bores, thrust surfaces, gears, fasteners, and lubricant before assembly.
- Use the axle maker’s current procedures for cleaning, preload, backlash, bearing adjustment, seal installation, torque values, and approved lubricant.
- Do not reuse damaged mating parts or mix unmatched bearing components. Installation should be completed by a qualified technician with appropriate measuring tools.
