The GPM 40Cr carbon steel 55T center differential spur gear UDR055TS is engineered as a direct replacement to maintain correct tooth profile and power flow through the differential case. The component uses hardened surface treatment to improve wear resistance under load while laser-etched tooth count markings provide clear confirmation of the 55T specification. This part is manufactured to match the original gear geometry and replaces part numbers #8573, #8574, and #8575 for straightforward installation and reliable operation.
