Differential Drive Pinion Nut – 9069900253 | Mercedes Sprinter Rear Axle Pinion Flange Nut

SKU: 9069900253 - qty 1

Secure critical rear differential components on your Mercedes Sprinter with this Differential Drive Pinion Nut – part #9069900253. This bihexagonal nut with flange fastens the pinion flange (pinion yoke) to the differential’s drive pinion shaft — a safety-critical connection that ensures the driveline stays properly assembled and functions reliably. 

✔ OEM-Equivalent Pinion Nut

• Designed as a direct replacement for Mercedes-Benz part 9069900253 (also listed as 906-990-02-53), this pinion nut meets factory specifications for fit and finish. 

• Commonly used on Sprinter 906 (2006–2018) rear axles to secure the pinion flange on the differential. 

✔ Critical Differential Fastener

• Ensures the pinion and flange remain tightly connected under load, torque and vibration.

• Replacing worn or damaged pinion nuts is essential after differential service or flange removal.

✔ Durable & Precise

• Precision-threaded (typically M28 x 1.5 fine-pitch) and machined from hardened steel for strength and safety. 

• Includes integrated flange to help distribute load and maintain secure retention.

📌 Service Tip: Whenever you remove the differential’s pinion flange for service (e.g., seal replacement, bearing work, or driveshaft removal), always install a new pinion nut to ensure proper torque, prevent loosening, and maintain differential integrity.
