Stub Shaft & Slip Yoke, Carrier & Bearing: Installation

  1. Make sure bearing bore is clean and has no nicks. Place needle bearing on Needle Bearing Installer (T83T-1244-A for Model 28; T90T-1175-A for Model 35; T80T-4000-H for all other models).
  2. Bearing manufacturer's name and part number should face toward tool when installed in carrier bore. Coat lip of seal with multipurpose grease. Drive seal into carrier. Install slip yoke and stub shaft so that groove on shaft is visible inside differential case.
  3. Install snap ring. DO NOT  tap on center of snap ring as ring will be damaged. Clean all sealant, oil and dirt from carrier and support arm. Apply continuous bead of RTV sealant 1/4-3/8" wide on carrier. Bead should not pass over or outside holes.
    NOTE: Carrier must be installed on support arm within 5 minutes after applying RTV sealant.
  4. Using jack, install carrier on support arm with guide pins to align carrier. Install and tighten bolts in either clockwise or counterclockwise pattern to 40-50 ft. lbs. (54-68 N.m). On Model 28 and 35, install and tighten shear bolt holding carrier to left axle arm to 75-95 ft. lbs. (102-129 N.m).
  5. Install both spindles, left and right axle shaft assemblies and drive shaft. Let RTV sealant cure for one hour before filling assembly with hypoid gear lubricant.
