Final Assembly

Clean
- Sealing surfaces of the tube and carrier assembly. Remove all oil and grease.

INSTALL OR CONNECT

NOTICE: Always use the correct fastener in the proper location. When you replace a fastener, use ONLY the exact part number for that application. The manufacturer will call out those fasteners that require a replacement after removal. The manufacturer will also call out the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not use supplemental coatings (paints, greases, or other corrosion inhibitors on threaded fasteners or fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings adversely affect the fastener torque and joint clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When you Install fasteners, use the correct tightening sequence and specifications. Following these instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and systems.

1. Shim, as selected previously, to the output shaft. Use grease to hold it in place.
2. Sleeve.
3. Spring.
4. Shift shaft, spring, shift fork, and clip assembly to the carrier case.
- Damper spring fits into shift fork indentation.
- Make sure clip is seated in groove of shift shaft.
- Apply a bead of sealer to the tube sealing surface.
5. Assembled tube to the carrier assembly.
6. Bolts.
- Tighten axle tube bolts to 40 Nm (30 ft. lbs.).

Inspect





- Shift mechanism operation. Insert a drift into the actuator hole in the axle tube. Rotate the axle flange while moving the shift fork with the drift. The shift mechanism should work smoothly, without binding.

7. Actuator. Apply sealer to the threads.
8. Switch. Apply sealer to the threads.
9. Axle lubricant, as specified.
10. Drain and fill plugs with sealing washers
- Tighten:
- Actuator bolts to 22 Nm (16 ft. lbs.)
- Switch bolts to 5 Nm (45 inch lbs.)
- Drain and fill plug, to 33 Nm (24 ft. lbs.)
