Dana 44 With Power Lock Unidentified Parts Fell Out!

When I disassembled my Dana 44 these small parts fell out. The power lock has a two piece cross shaft with a hole through center - I'm thinking they go there and space the axles? Anyone have this?

 

Yep I knew what it was even before I saw the pic.
That’s a “center blok” spacer and is only used with tapered type axle shafts so you can adjust the wheel bearings.
Replace the spring pin between the 2 halves.
The spring pins breaks fairly often but the two halves always stay in place in till you remove the axle shafts…

 

Thank you old time!!! Appreciated! Now I just need to figure out how to set the wheel bearing depth. I do have a couple of spacers on each side but i don't know if they are correct. Do you know where I can find some manual or something for this process? I was able to get a clutch rebuild pack from West Coast differentials in Rancho Cordova. Thanks again!!

 

Thanks Howard!! I do have 19 spline tapered axles. I dont quite understand the 1.5" reference. Is that space between axle ends? Thanks

 

What Oldtime and Howard said. These are also sometimes referred to as thrust buttons and the spring clip is also referred to as a roll pin. Available at any parts house. Get a fsm/tsm (Factory Service Manual/Technical Service Manual). Worth it’s weight in gold.

 

Wow! this factory service manual is hard to find! No youtube videos on it either. I'll have to make one once I figure it out. Cheers!!

 

You must not have searched very hard. All the Jeep specialty retailers have the FSMs. Not expensive.

Went to RockAuto and they have them - https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog...cid+v6,1381238,literature,repair+manual,10335

Thanks Timgr! I have a 43 Willys with a 4.3l chevy V6 and turbo 350 auto. Dana 44 in rear and disc brakes. I dont know why it didnt show up in the thread. I'll have to check what happened.
Thanks for the link!

 

Search metalshaper on YouTube he has a video on the set up for “end play” in the tapered axle
