Ford 9 Inch Rear Axle Exploded Parts Diagram - Differential & Pinion Assembly

This document is an exploded parts diagram of a Ford 9-inch rear axle assembly, credited "Copyright FoMoCo" (Ford Motor Company). It shows the complete rear axle broken down into its major components across three groupings. The top section shows the axle housing with the axle shaft assembly: axle retainer plate, retainer plate gasket, axle bearing, axle seal, and the housing vent. The middle section covers the differential carrier internals: the ring gear and differential case, side gear washers, right and left side gears, long pinion shaft, pinion (spider) gears with their washers, carrier bearings, and the third-member (drop-out) housing. The bottom section details the drive pinion assembly: pinion shims, pinion retainer O-ring, pilot bearing, pinion gear, inner and outer pinion bearings, pinion retainer, oil slinger, seal, and companion flange. The diagram identifies each part by name with leader lines but includes no part numbers, torque specifications, or year/model applicability text. It is useful for identifying component names, their relative positions, and the assembly order when rebuilding or servicing a Ford 9-inch rear differential, such as on the uploader's 1978 Ford Bronco.
