The truck models are now available with the Dana Spicer S140 Series of single-reduction, single-drive axles, with gross axle weight ratings from 16,000 to 21,000 lb. The two S140 Series axles feature a ratio coverage from 3.31 to 6.50, and standard R Series spindles.
Eaton EverTough now tougher
Eaton has enhanced its aftermarket line of EverTough Self-Adjust and Manual-Adjust clutches. The release bearing has been upgraded with wider thrust pads to improve the interface with the release fork. That, the company says, increases the contact area for the fork and results in less wear. A third grease zerk fitting has also been added to support routine lubrication.
