WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Ford RV Cutaway, 2003 Ford Econoline, 2003 Ford E550 Super Duty, 2003 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2003 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 install both bushings when either bushing is installed. However, remove and install only one bushing at a time. Use the other bushing in the case to help align the tool and the new bushing during installation.
