Assembly Procedure
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 13 other vehicles, including the 2006 Saturn Relay, 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6, 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix, 2006 Pontiac G6, and 2006 Chevrolet Uplander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Install the seal onto the tool before installing into the case to prevent damage to the seal.
IMPORTANT:
When you remove a drive axle from the transmission for any reason, inspect the axle sealing surface (tripot shank) for corrosion. If corrosion is evident, clean the surface with a 320 grit cloth or equivalent. Clean off any remaining debris with automatic transmission fluid. Wipe the surface dry and reinstall the drive axle free of any build up.
Use J 34115 in order to install the left side axle oil seal assembly (409). See Special Tools .
