Technical Specification and Compatibility

Original 1384560 front drive shaft from the renowned SPICER (DANA) brand. This is a complete shaft (including U-joints) designed for CAT C and D series backhoe loaders equipped with a Powershift transmission. The shaft has an overall compressed length of 775 mm and is responsible for transferring drive from the transmission to the front axle.

Features of the 1384560 Drive Shaft

OEM SPICER Quality: Guarantees identical materials and technology as the factory-fitted part in CAT machines.
Dynamic Balancing: Eliminates vibrations at higher speeds, protecting the seals and bearings of the axle and transmission.
Complete Assembly: Supplied with factory-fitted and greased U-joints, ready for immediate installation.

Application in machinery

Brand Transmission Models
Caterpillar (CAT) Powershift 416C, 416D, 420D, 424D, 426C, 428C, 428D, 430D, 432D, 436C, 438C, 438D, 442D

The list above is for reference. It is crucial to verify the transmission type (Powershift) and old shaft length (approx. 775 mm).

Related Parts and Hardware

When replacing the drive shaft, we recommend inspecting the condition of the flanges (yokes) on the transmission and drive axle. You should also use new mounting bolts and straps for the U-joints, tightening them to the correct torque.

⚠️ Safety Warning

Driving with a damaged drive shaft (U-joint play, bent tube) is dangerous. A shaft failure at speed can cause it to strike the undercarriage, damaging fuel or hydraulic lines or the engine sump, creating a serious risk of breakdown and accident.

Part Role in the Machine and Failure Diagnostics

The 1384560 drive shaft connects the front drive (4WD) output to the backhoe loader. It transfers torque from the transmission to the front axle, which is essential when working in difficult terrain, dozing, or loading with the front bucket.

  • › Vibrations felt when 4WD is engaged.
  • › Metallic clicking/clunking when starting or changing direction (U-joint play).
  • › No front drive despite it being engaged (sheared shaft or splines).
  • › Visible play in the slip joint splines.

🔧 Expert Guide: Key Installation Tips

  1. Verify Length: Ensure the old shaft (compressed) is approximately 775 mm long. Shafts for manual transmissions are longer (approx. 790 mm).
  2. Check Mounts: Always check the condition of the engine and transmission mounts. If they are broken, the new shaft will quickly fail due to misalignment.
  3. Lubrication: Grease the U-joints (if fitted with grease nipples) and the slip spline before installation.
  4. U-Joint Installation: Ensure the U-joints are perfectly seated in the flanges before tightening the straps. Use new bolts and threadlocker.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

I have a manual transmission. Will this shaft fit?

No. This shaft (775 mm) is too short for a manual transmission. You need a shaft that is approximately 790 mm long (usually a different part number).

Is the shaft balanced?

Yes, the shaft is factory dynamically balanced by the manufacturer (SPICER), ensuring smooth, vibration-free operation.
