The SAAB differential carrier bearing supports the differential carrier inside the axle housing, allowing it to rotate smoothly under power. This bearing handles both radial and axial loads generated by the ring gear and must maintain precise alignment for efficient power transfer. Over time, wear or pitting on the bearing surfaces can lead to humming noises, gear whine, or uneven wear patterns. Replacing worn carrier bearings with OEM-grade units restores smooth differential rotation and extends the life of your entire axle assembly.
A reliable carrier bearing is crucial for supporting the rotating mass inside the differential. OEM bearings are engineered to deliver quiet operation, proper preload, and long service life under varying load conditions.
Each carrier bearing is designed to handle extreme torque and rotational speed while keeping the carrier aligned under varying loads and temperatures.
