Detailed Description
This Dorman differential ring and pinion, part number 697-455, is built for front axle service in Ford trucks and SUVs that use a Dana 50 axle with a 5.13 ratio. It is a direct OE replacement for the original gear set and is listed for 2000-2005 Ford Excursion, 1999-2002 Ford F-250 Super Duty, 1999-2002 Ford F-350 Super Duty, 1980-1999 Ford F-250, 1997 Ford F-250 HD, and 1980-1986 Ford F-350 front applications. This part cross-references ZG D50R-513R for the same application.
Use Dorman 697-455 when servicing a front differential that requires the correct 5.13 axle ratio and reverse-rotation gear setup. The part number 697-455 is a practical match for Ford F-250 and Ford F-350 front axle repairs where the original ring and pinion has worn, chipped, or lost proper gear mesh.
What This Part Helps Address
- Gear noise from worn ring and pinion teeth
- Improper differential ratio after axle service
- Damage from chipped or pitted gear surfaces
- Loss of correct front axle engagement performance
- Restoration of factory-style gear setup on Dana 50 front axles
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify axle identification, gear ratio, and reverse-rotation requirements before installation. This front differential ring and pinion is listed without an installation kit, so setup components must be sourced separately as needed. Proper gear setup, backlash, and bearing preload are critical for long-term operation, especially on Ford Excursion, Ford F-250 Super Duty, and Ford F-350 front axle applications.
Quality Assurance
Dorman lists this part as a standard replacement component engineered to directly replace the original equipment on specific vehicle years, makes, and models. Part number 697-455 is intended for accurate fitment in confirmed Dana 50 front axle applications.
