Dana Limited-Slip Axles

Service procedures for the Dana Model 60 and 70 axles with limited-slip differentials are covered separately.

The Dana limited-slip differential assembly is removed and installed in exactly the same manner as the conventional differential assembly. Additive Friction Modifier, C8AZ- 1 9B546-A, EST-M2C1 18-A or equivalent (friction modifier) is the only authorized additive which may be used with these axles.

When axle lubricant has been drained for front or rear axle repair (limited-slip only), refill the axle with the specified quantity of Hypoid Gear Lubricant, C6AZ-19580-E (ESW-M2C105-A) or equivalent and add 0.236L (8 oz) of Additive Friction Modifier C8AZ-19B546-A (EST-M2C118-A) or equivalent friction modifier for rear axles and 0.059L (2 oz) of Additive Friction Modifier C8AZ-1 9B546-A (ESTM2C1 18-A) or equivalent friction modifier for front-drive axles.
