At Dana, we understand the importance of weight savings to
your fleet. That’s why the Spicer Life Series ® of driveshafts
was designed to improve performance by reducing weight –
and save you money.
A Freightliner study from March 1999 showed that using Spicer Life ® 170 and
250 series driveshafts produced an average weight reduction of 5 lbs. per truck,
resulting in $60 savings.
Reduce Weight and Pump Up
Your Bottom Line
Fewer Shafts and Cross Members
Save You More
Advanced Spicer ® Design Means Added Value for You
Longer driveshafts for your trucks mean bigger savings for you.
Driveline lengths on the Spicer Life 170 and 250 series are
available up to 80" long, which is up to 10" longer than the 10 Series ™
or competitive driveshafts.
By reducing the number of shafts and cross members for some
wheel bases, you can save as much as $622 per truck.
Data is based on full retail, November 2003 Century Class S/T data book.
Fewer Relubes Add Up To Big Savings
If you perform preventative maintenance in-house, the Spicer
Life XL u-joint initial lube interval of 3 years/350,000 miles and
6 months/100,000 miles thereafter (on-highway) equates to 40-plus
fewer relubes versus the 10 Series. For a typical 3-piece system,
the savings per truck are $729.
This is based upon a flat charge of $25 to properly lube and purge a 1760/1810
driveline. It does not use the average labor rate of $74 and 0.5 hours to complete.
