Product Description

This spider gear is a crucial component found within the drive train gearbox assemblies of select Toyota Hiace 3Y (1983-2005) and Nissan E20 L18 (1973-1986) models. It is responsible for allowing the wheels to rotate at different speeds, especially when cornering, by transmitting torque between the differential side gears. If your vehicle is experiencing issues with its differential, a worn or damaged spider gear could be the cause.

Fitment for this spider gear is specific to certain Toyota Hiace 3Y and Nissan E20 L18 models. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before purchasing to ensure compatibility with your differential assembly. If you are unsure, our team at MiMi Auto Parts can assist you in verifying fitment.

Common symptoms of a failing spider gear include unusual noises from the differential such as clicking, grinding, or clunking, as well as uneven tyre wear and difficulty turning. You may also notice vibrations or a feeling of binding when making tight turns. In severe cases, loss of drive to one or both wheels can occur.

Replacing a spider gear should be considered when you notice any of these symptoms or during a differential rebuild. Timely replacement prevents further damage to the differential and ensures safe, predictable handling of your vehicle. Professional installation is recommended for this gearbox component.
