34. Front Differential Transfer Gear Bearing and Cup Replacement

Front Differential Transfer Gear Bearing and Cup Replacement

- Tools Required
- J 8092 Universal Driver Handle
- J 22912-01 Split Plate Bearing Puller
- J 43075 Drive Pinion Bearing and Cup Installer
- J 45115 Bearing Cup Remover
- J 45124 Removal Bridge






Notice: Bearings and cups must be replaced as a set. Do not replace a bearing without also replacing the corresponding cup, or replace a cup without replacing the corresponding bearing. Failure to replace both components may damage the front differential carrier assembly.

1. Using the J22912-01 and an arbor press, remove the bearing assembly from the front differential drive pinion gear - transmission case side.





2. Using the J 22912-01 and an arbor press, remove the bearing assembly from the front differential drive pinion gear - torque converter and differential housing side.





3. Using the J 43075 and an arbor press, install the bearing assembly on the front differential drive pinion gear - transmission case side.





4. Using the J 43075 and an arbor press, install the bearing assembly on the front differential drive pinion gear- torque converter and differential housing side.





5. Install the J 45115 into the drive pinion gear bearing cup on the transmission case assembly.
6. Using 2 wrenches, tighten the J 45115.





7. Using a wrench, the J 45124 and the J 45115, remove the drive pinion gear bearing cup from the transmission case assembly.

Important: The bearing shim is reusable.

8. Remove the drive pinion gear bearing shim from the transmission case assembly.





9. Install the J 45115 into the drive pinion gear bearing cup on the torque converter and differential housing assembly.
10. Using 2 wrenches, tighten the J 45115.
