Suzuki Crush Collar Spacer for Diff Pinion Shaft - No 3

Aftermarket Differential Pinion Crush Collar / Spacer – Equivalent to 27315-60A01 (No. 3)

Description:
This is a high-quality aftermarket differential pinion crush collar (spacer) used to set the correct pinion bearing preload inside the differential. The crush collar compresses to a precise distance when torqued, ensuring optimal bearing tension and correct ring & pinion mesh. Reusing an old crush collar or fitting an incorrect spacer can lead to differential noise, overheating, or rapid bearing wear.

Key Features:

• Premium aftermarket crush collar equivalent to OEM specification.

• Designed to deform under specified torque for accurate pinion preload.

• Essential component during differential rebuilds or gear replacements.

• Suitable replacement for Suzuki reference 27315-60A01.

• Manufactured for correct strength, thickness, and compression rate.

Fitment:

• Suzuki Jimny – 1995 onwards

  • Rear differential only.

• Suzuki SJ / Samurai – 1985 onwards

  • Fits all except SJ410 axle.

• Suzuki Vitara / Sidekick – 1988 to 1998

  • Front differential only.

• Position number: 3 in the Suzuki parts diagram.

• Location: Differential pinion shaft assembly.

When to Replace:

• During pinion bearing replacement or full differential rebuilds.

• When changing ring and pinion gear ratios.

• If correct pinion preload cannot be achieved with the existing collar.

• When differential whine, excess play, or bearing heat is present.

What’s Included:

• One aftermarket differential pinion crush collar / spacer.

Notes:
Crush collars are single-use only and must be replaced whenever disturbed. Always use calibrated torque equipment and verify pinion preload to factory specifications. Incorrect preload can result in severe differential and gear damage.
