How to Assemble the Output Shaft Assembly

For "A" Series, go to “A” Series Section.

Make sure the magnetic plugs are installed in the auxiliary housing.

Output shaft stack up should be done on a clean, flat surface.

When heating the bearings, do not heat bearings above 275°F (136°C).

When installing the rear bearing race, the proper depth is when the race shoulder is seated on bearing bore top.

Because the collar becomes distorted when compressed, do not use an old nylon collar in the rear bearing cover.

• Typical Service Tools • Toolmaker’s dye • Heat lamp or hot plate and oil • Oil seal installation tool

1. Use toolmaker’s dye and mark the LO range gear for timing purposes.

Mark any two (2) adjacent teeth on the LO range gear. Repeat the procedure for the two (2) adjacent teeth directly opposite the first set marked.

2. With splined washer facing up, place the washer on the output shaft shoulder.

3. With LO range gear clutching teeth down, position LO range gear on the output shaft, engage the washer splines.

4. With chamfer side up, position the LO range gear rear washer on the output shaft against the LO range gear.

5. With tapered side up, use heat or appropriate driver and install the output shaft front rear bearing.

6. On the output shaft, position the bearing inner spacer. Set aside.

7. Lay the auxiliary housing front face up on a clean, flat surface. Install the front bearing cup.

8. Turn the auxiliary housing over, install the rear bearing spacer and rear bearing race in the bearing bore.
