Pull out rear axle shaft flange 

  1. Insert SPECIAL TOOL threaded bolt (010j), part 03, through rear axle shaft flange (10) from the inside and bolt onSPECIAL TOOL bracket (010g).
  2. Lay SPECIAL TOOL support plate (010d) (depending on model) on face of wheel carrier (7).
  3. Pass SPECIAL TOOL pressure plate (010f) with SPECIAL TOOL thrust pin (010b) through SPECIAL TOOL bracket and lay on SPECIAL TOOL support plate (010d).

  4. Position SPECIAL TOOL hydraulic auxiliary press (010h) between SPECIAL TOOL thrust washer (010f) and SPECIAL TOOL bracket (010g). Unscrew SPECIAL TOOL pressure screw (010k) on SPECIAL TOOL hydraulic auxiliary press and then screw in bolt (1st version) or hand wheel (2nd version, 010i) of SPECIAL TOOL bracket until it rests on the pressure cylinder of SPECIAL TOOL hydraulic auxiliary press.
  5. Screw in SPECIAL TOOL pressure screw (010k) on SPECIAL TOOL hydraulic auxiliary press (010h) (max. torque 40 Nm) until the rear axle shaft flange is pressed out.

    IMPORTANT Apply a hard blow to the bracket (arrow) using a hammer at 20 Nm.

    IMPORTANT If the travel distance is insufficient in the first pressing-out operation, the SPECIAL TOOL pressure screw (010k) must be turned back and the bolt (1st version) or hand wheel (2nd version, 010i) must be adjusted on the SPECIAL TOOL bracket.

    IMPORTANTPressure screw of SPECIAL TOOLhydraulic auxiliary press without shear pin, 1st version: 

    SPECIAL TOOL Screw in pressure screw (010k) to a max. torque of 40 Nm (corresponds to an extraction force of 12 to 13 t). If this extraction force is insufficient, the complete wheel carrier with rear axle shaft flange must be removed and pressed out on a fixed-position hydraulic press.

    IMPORTANT If the max. torque is exceeded, both the SPECIAL TOOL extraction tool and the SPECIAL TOOL hydraulic auxiliary press may be irreparably damaged!

    IMPORTANTPressure screw of SPECIAL TOOLhydraulic auxiliary press with shear pin, 2nd version: 

    In order to make the use of the SPECIAL TOOL extractor tool 202 589 04 43 00 even safer, as of now the pressure screw of the SPECIAL TOOL hydraulic auxiliary press is fitted with a shear pin. This pin shears off at approx. 40 Nm. This prevents the hydraulic auxiliary press from building up more pressure.

    The modified SPECIAL TOOL pressure screw with shear pin is available as a replacement part with the special tool number 202 589 04 43 11.

  6. Pull in rear axle shaft flange 

  7. Pull rear axle shaft flange (10) into double-row angular ball bearing (8) using SPECIAL TOOL insertion tool.

    IMPORTANT Ensure that the SPECIAL TOOL pressure plate (small), part 03, abuts the bearing inner race snugly when pulling in (arrow).
