The Model A Crankshaft Gear Key (A-6307) is a direct replacement woodruff key for 1928-1934 Ford Model A engines. It fits into the crankshaft keyway and accurately locates the crankshaft timing gear, preventing movement and maintaining correct valve timing.
Although small, the crankshaft gear key is a critical component of the engine's timing assembly. It ensures the timing gear is correctly positioned on the crankshaft during installation, allowing the gear retaining hardware to securely clamp the assembly in place. A worn, damaged or missing key can result in incorrect gear alignment and may lead to timing issues or damage to the crankshaft and gear.
Whenever the crankshaft timing gear is removed during an engine rebuild or timing gear replacement, it's good practice to inspect the key for wear or deformation and replace it if necessary. Installing a new key provides confidence that the timing gear is correctly aligned from the outset.
Manufactured in the USA to original specifications, this replacement crankshaft gear key offers reliable fitment for restorations, engine rebuilds and routine maintenance.
