Output Flange: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
    CAUTION: Install the transfer case rear output shaft flange to engage the spline as previously marked.
  1. Install the transfer case rear output shaft flange.
    2. CAUTION: Do not over-tighten the pinion nut.
    CAUTION: Refer to the rotational torque previously recorded with an in-lb torque wrench.
    CAUTION: If the rotational torque is less than specification, tighten the drive pinion nut in small increments until it is within specification. Do not tighten the drive pinion nut more than 678 Nm (500 lb-ft) or the collapsible spacer will be damaged. If the rotation torque is higher than specification, the collapsible spacer has been compressed too far and a new collapsible spacer must be installed.
