Differential

A differential transmits drive power to a truck's driven wheels. It allows the left and right wheels to rotate at different speeds when turning. This is necessary because the outer wheel travels a longer distance.

At Philevi Truckparts, you'll find differentials for DAF and Scania. The differential is part of the drivetrain. Compare the part number, axle type, and gear ratio before choosing a model.

What does a differential do?

A differential distributes the drive torque between the left and right wheels on a driven axle. The gears allow these wheels to rotate at different speeds. This enables the truck to make a turn while both wheels are driven.

The gear ratio is also an important factor to consider when making your selection. This number indicates how the drive speed is converted to the shaft speed. You’ll often find this ratio on the nameplate or in the product specifications.

Why is a differential important?

The differential must be compatible with the axle and the truck model. An incorrect gear ratio can cause problems with the drivetrain. Therefore, be sure to check more than just the vehicle's make.

A humming or whining noise, play, or an oil leak may indicate wear and tear. These issues may also have other causes. Have the problem diagnosed first before replacing the differential.

What should you look for when making your choice?

Compare the original part number, also known as the OEM number. Also check the AS code and the gear ratio. Numbers such as 2.53 or 4.56 indicate different versions and are not simply interchangeable.

Also pay attention to the mounting, the connections, and the design of the differential. Does the truck have a differential lock? If so, check to make sure the replacement part is compatible with that system. A differential lock can cause the wheels on the same axle to rotate at the same speed.

Applications in Maintenance and Repair

During maintenance, check the oil level and look for any leaks according to the manufacturer's instructions. Use the specified oil and adhere to the recommended maintenance intervals.

When replacing the part, also have the bearings, seals, and associated components inspected. The installation and adjustment must be appropriate for the type of axle. For trucks with multiple driven axles, the gear ratios must also be matched to one another.

"New" comes directly from the manufacturer and includes a manufacturer's warranty. "Refurbished" has been rebuilt and is more affordable than "new." "Used" has been removed from a truck and is the most affordable option.
