Abstract
An improved differential carrier and pilot web for a vehicle comprises a carrier and a separate pilot web. The pilot web is attached to the carrier by at least two bolts. At least two bolts are each covered by a bushing. The carrier and the pilot web each preferably comprise counter bored holes to receive and support the bolt and bushing. The carrier and the pilot web each also have a mating stop surface, which are precision machined to be a minimal distance from one another.
