It is designed to weld into a 4.000‑inch diameter driveshaft tube and provides a 10‑spline connection to the midship bearing or companion flange, transmitting torque from the transmission to the rear axles. This part is typically replaced during driveline overhauls when splines become worn, twisted, or damaged, or when converting to a 1710 series driveline. It is a genuine Spicer component engineered for the 1710 series and is commonly used in Mack and other vocational truck applications.
