7. Using a soft mallet (and brass drift), drive the expansion plug into the gear-
box housing and continue to push the input shaft out. Because the input
gear is in place, the inner bearing remains within the housing as the shaft is
forced out. However, the outer bearing, being a tight fit on the shaft, should
come out with the shaft.
As the shaft is removed, hold the input gear to prevent it from dropping free.
(See Figure 6b-6: “Input Shaft and Gear Assembly.”) Remove the input gear
and set safely aside.
8. Remove the inner bearing from the gearbox housing. A press or soft mallet
and bearing pusher tool may be needed.
9. After all components are removed, carefully clean and inspect the bearings,
input gear and shaft and other parts for excessive wear, chips, scoring or
other damage. Replace all components that are worn, damaged, or pitted.
