Differential & Main Gear

The Differential & Main Gear components within the Drivetrain > Gearbox category are critical for transmitting engine power to the wheels while allowing for varying wheel speeds during turns. Located within the vehicle's axle housing, these gears enable smooth and controlled vehicle operation. The differential distributes torque to each wheel, compensating for the different distances traveled during cornering. Main gears, also known as pinion gears, are integral to the final drive ratio, impacting acceleration and top speed. Examples of parts within this category include Febi differentials (MPN 46267, FEBI34917) and BMW original equipment gears, along with Febi pinion seals like MPN FEBI18797 and FEBI105963. These components are essential for both passenger cars and commercial vehicles.
