A retaining cap for the shaft of a differential gear assembly retains the pinion gear without support from a case structure. The retaining cap is self-supported, and may be retained on a single shaft by a weld, a force fit arrangement, or by a rivet. The retaining cap is capable of retaining the pinion gear under high loads, and simplifies the differential assembly by allowing construction without the case structure.
