Dorman 797-104 Differential Bearing Kit - Front or Rear

Dorman 797-104 Differential Bearing Kit

Restore differential smoothness and bearing support with the Dorman 797-104 differential bearing kit. This premium kit is built for front or rear differential service and includes high-precision tapered bearings engineered to tighter tolerances for long service life in torque-heavy axle applications.

Key Features

  • Premium differential bearing kit for front or rear differential rebuilds
  • High-precision tapered bearings manufactured to tighter tolerances
  • Helps reduce backlash associated with lower-grade replacement bearings
  • Includes bearing races for a complete service setup
  • Package contents include bearings, shims, crush collar, gasket material, gear marking compound, thread lock compound, application brush, and hardware
  • Fits Dana 35 axle applications in Jeep Wrangler, Cherokee, Grand Cherokee, Comanche, Wagoneer, Ford Explorer, and Ford Bronco II

Detailed Description

Dorman 797-104 is a differential bearing kit for servicing Dana 35 axle assemblies. It is a direct-fit service solution for rear differential work on 1987-2006 Jeep Wrangler, 1984-2001 Jeep Cherokee, 1993-1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 1986-1992 Jeep Comanche, and 1984-1990 Jeep Wagoneer, plus front Dana 35 axle applications on 1991-1997 Ford Explorer and 1990 Ford Bronco II. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 713F004) for the same application. The kit is built around steel, tapered bearings with multiple cone and race dimensions to match the specified axle setup, helping maintain proper differential gear support during rebuild or bearing replacement. Dorman 797-104 is a practical choice when replacing worn differential bearings in Jeep Wrangler and Cherokee Dana 35 axle service, or when addressing front Dana 35 axle wear in Ford Explorer and Bronco II applications.

What It Helps Fix

  • Gear noise from worn differential bearings
  • Excessive play or backlash in the differential assembly
  • Rough bearing operation during axle rebuilds
  • Loss of proper gear mesh after bearing wear
  • Service delays caused by sourcing individual differential components

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify axle type, bearing dimensions, and fitment details before installation. This kit is for Dana 35 axle applications only, and the correct bearing set depends on the vehicle, axle position, and differential configuration. Use the included gear marking compound to confirm gear contact pattern during setup, and follow factory service procedures for shim selection, preload, and torque specifications.

Quality Assurance

Dorman manufactures this differential bearing kit with high-precision components and tighter tolerances than common lower-grade bearings. The design focus is durability and consistent differential operation in torque-loaded axle service.
