Overview
The Dana Spicer 37305 is a lower grease retainer dust cap for the king pin area of a front axle. It is made for Dana 60 and Dana 61 front axle locations.
Buyers who need a lower dust cap for a Dana 60 or Dana 61 front axle should compare the part number before ordering, since no vehicle is named.
Keeping the king pin area sealed
The lower dust cap sits at the king pin area of a front axle, where grease lubricates the king pin bushings and keeps water and grit out. A cap that is cracked, missing or unseated lets contamination in, which dries out the bushings and leads to play in the steering. Keeping this area sealed is one of the simplest ways to extend front axle life.
Dana 60 and Dana 61 front axles are often serviced together with new king pin seals, thrust bearings and bushings, so inspect those parts when the cap comes off. Use a grease suited to the axle, pack the area evenly, and check for leaks after the first drives. A cap that bulges or tears should be replaced rather than reused.
- Replace a cracked or torn cap
- Inspect king pin seals and bushings together
