Crank GearThis crankshaft gear (part number AC15043-VB500) is an aftermarket replacement used in forklift engines to drive the oil pump, timing components, and accessory systems off the crankshaft itself. The gear takes constant load on every revolution, so tooth wear, chipping, or excess backlash eventually develops over high-hour service life. Engine rebuilders replace this gear during major overhauls or when noise and timing irregularities show up during inspection and diagnostic work. A fresh crank gear restores accurate timing and pump drive, which keeps oil pressure, valve events, and combustion all on specification in the rebuilt engine.Aftermarket replacement part, cross-references original part number AC15043-VB500.Need help confirming fit?
