Overview

Spicer Drivetrain Products Spring Retainer Plates

Spicer Drivetrain Products spring retainer plates are durable, heat-treated steel components manufactured by ⁠Spicer Parts. They're primarily used in Dana front axle assemblies (such as Dana 44 and Dana 60) to hold drive hub gears and springs in place, or to secure compression springs on steering knuckles. These retainers are engineered to OEM standards to withstand harsh off-road and heavy-duty conditions, ensuring the front hub and steering systems operate smoothly without excess vibration.

Common uses for specific Spicer retainer plates include:

* Drive hub gear retainers: Plates (like the ⁠32589 Spicer Retainer Plate) that secure the front axle drive hub gear and associated springs on classic GM and Jeep vehicles
* Steering knuckle retainers: Plates (such as ⁠Dana Spicer 620180) used with heavy-duty front steering knuckles to keep kingpins and compression springs properly tensioned
* Axle bearing and seal plates: Heavy-duty, pressed-steel plates that hold wheel bearings and oil seals securely within the axle housing
