Delivery and Shipping
UK delivery — parts we hold in stock
Ordered before 2pm on a working day, these are dispatched the same day by express courier and normally arrive within 1–2 working days.
Parts supplied from our European supplier
A large part of our range is held by our supplier in Germany rather than on our own shelves. We order these in for you as soon as you place the order. They normally dispatch within 7–10 working days, and are then sent on by express courier like anything else. Nothing ships to you direct from Germany — it comes to our Arlesey workshop first, so you deal only with us for returns and warranty.
Collection from Arlesey
Click and collect is available on parts we physically hold. If an item has to come in from our supplier it cannot be collected, and checkout will tell you so before you pay.
International
3–5 working days once dispatched. Any customs charges or excise duties are the responsibility of the buyer.
*Delivery times are estimates and can be affected by factors outside our control.

What does this brass differential ring do?
This thrust ring sits within the differential housing and manages axial load between the differential side gears and the casing. Brass is used for its good bearing properties and resistance to galling under load.
When should I replace this ring?
Replace during any differential rebuild or when excessive differential end-play is measured. Worn rings lead to increased noise, backlash, and in severe cases differential failure.
Is this a genuine OE or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part manufactured to the OE 084409374A specification.
Does this fit both the 084 and 085 gearbox?
The 084409374A reference is shared across the 084/085 family. Please confirm compatibility by matching part numbers before ordering.
What other differential parts should I replace during a rebuild?
Typical differential rebuild parts include side gears, planet gears, thrust washers, the differential case bearings, and the ring gear. Contact us for a full parts list for your application.
