Detailed Product Description
Timken 3720 is a differential pinion race engineered as part of a tapered roller bearing assembly. Timken tapered roller bearing components are known for handling both radial and axial forces, which is important in axle and differential locations where alignment, load control, and durability matter. For service work on a Hummer H1 or Pontiac Catalina, this bearing cup provides the dimensional fit needed for the specified pinion bearing positions.
For reliable driveline repair, the cone and cup should be replaced together. That approach helps restore bearing geometry and supports longer service life in the differential assembly. This part number, 3720, is a direct reference point for technicians and parts buyers looking for a Timken pinion race with the listed dimensions.
