Removal and Disassembly

11

CAUTION

Do not use pry bar to remove bearing cage from
carrier. A pry bar can damage bearing cage,
shims and main housing.

5. Remove pinion bearing cage and shims from

main housing. If bearing cage is tight within the
main housing, hit bearing cage at several points
around flange area with leather, plastic or rubber
mallet. Figure 2.36.

6. If shims are in good condition, keep them

together for use later when main housing is
reassembled.

7. Before damaged shims are discarded, measure

and record total thickness of the pack. The
dimension will be needed to calculate depth of
drive pinion in main housing when gear set is
installed.

8. Place drive pinion and bearing cage in press with

pinion shaft toward top assembly. Support
bearing cage under flange area with metal or
wood blocks. Press drive pinion through bearing
cage. Figure 2.37.

!

NOTE

The inner bearing cone and bearing spacer will
remain on the pinion shaft.

9. If pinion bearing needs to be replaced, remove

inner and outer bearing cups from inside of
cage. Use a press and sleeve, bearing puller or
small drift and hammer. Figures 2.38 and 2.39.
