Rear Axle Shaft Bearing & Oil Seal: Installation

  1. To install, reverse removal procedure. Install new oil seal in bearing cage and lubricate cavity between seal lips. Place faced side of lock nut on washer side. Tighten lock nut to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Ensure washer lip fits in nut groove.
  2. After installation, bend up locking tab on new bearing lock washer. Apply wheel bearing grease to wheel bearing and recess of axle case end. Apply gear oil to axle spline, and apply grease to seal surface before installing axle shaft. Use Shaft Guide (ST37840000) when installing axle shaft.
NOTE: When installing axle shaft, adjust axial end play by applying case end shims. When servicing one axle only, axial end play should be 0.0008-0.0059" (0.020-0.150 mm). When servicing both axles, end play should be 0.012-0.035" (0.30-0.90 mm) on first axle (right or left) and 0.0008-0.0059" (0.020-0.150 mm) on second axle.
