Borg Warner 7-Tooth Speedometer Drive Gear T18-169 - Fits BW1356, BW4406, BW4407 Transfer Cases

About This Product

Hey there Ford truck owners and mechanics! If you're dealing with speedometer issues on your Borg Warner transfer case, this 7-tooth speedometer drive gear might be exactly what you need. This yellow gear (part number T18-169) is designed specifically for Borg Warner BW1356, BW4406, and BW4407 transfer cases that were used in tons of Ford trucks and SUVs from the 80s through early 2000s. The gear measures 35mm ID and is 19mm wide - those dimensions are crucial for making sure it fits properly in your transfer case. When these gears wear out or get damaged, your speedometer starts acting up - either reading wrong, jumping around, or not working at all. Installation isn't too bad if you're comfortable working on transfer cases - you'll need to drain the fluid, remove the tail housing, and swap out the old gear for this new one. The quality seems solid - it's made to OEM specifications so it should last as long as the original. Before ordering, definitely double-check that your transfer case is one of the compatible models, and count the teeth on your old gear to make sure this 7-tooth version is what you need. Having the correct speedometer gear isn't just about knowing your speed - it also affects transmission shifting and overall vehicle operation. For anyone restoring an older Ford truck or just keeping their daily driver running properly, this is one of those small but important parts that can solve some frustrating issues. Definitely a must-have for Borg Warner transfer case maintenance and repair.
