WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Ford RV Cutaway, 2002 Ford Econoline, 2002 Ford E550 Super Duty, 2002 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2002 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Inspect the case bushing bores for nicks or burrs.
- Using the special tools, remove the rear case bushing.
NOTE:
Remove any minor nicks or burrs using a fine oil stone. Remove the case bushings only if they show signs of excessive wear or scoring.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the case bore while removing the bushing.
NOTE:
Always replace both bushings when either bushing is replaced. However, remove and replace only one bushing at a time. Use the other bushing in the case to help align the tool and replacement bushing during installation.
