Part of the Spicer 1310 series, it uses inside snap rings, 1.062-inch bearing caps, and a 2.188-inch lock-up span. It transmits torque from the differential to the wheel while allowing steering articulation; typical replacement signs include clicking, binding, or vibration during turns due to worn needle bearings or dried-out grease in this sealed design.
