Default Felt pinion spacer Ford and GM CMP trucks

Good day,

I just checked the ID of a spare 4675 Retainer- bearing and pinion oil seal, and the OD of the 4848 flange- drive pinion and deflectors assy, for my Ford F15-A.

The ID of the pocket where the felt spacer and bearing goes is 3-7/16". (OD of felt)
The OD of the Flange- drive pinion is 2-3/8". (ID of felt)

In my part list it is listed as: 1804415 Retainer pinion and oil seal (C01Q-4809) GM and Ford design front axle (felt).

Surprisingly it is not listed in the rear axle parts list but 4809 is shown in the rear axle diagram.

Similar dimensions to the one discussed here but not exactly the same as my measurements make Andrew's 1/16" larger OD and 1/8" larger ID.

I remember years ago replacing the felts in both diffs but from memory they were only about 1/4" thick. Perhaps were just crushed down to that size.

Cheers,
