440IC Left Final Bull Gear

Post by jboard4x4 » Sun Jul 12, 2026 4:04 pm

I have a 440IC and while replacing bearings in left final drive noticed that the bull gear has some fine cracks in the spline area. Is this normal for one of these due to its age? Anything I should be concerned with?

Thanks

Not uncommon, seen many. It's junk.
