2. Install a new axle bearing (71) on axle (67 or 68). Push bearing onto axle until bearing is flush against axle
shoulder
(Figure 20-7, Page 20-5) .
3. Apply two drops of Loctite 271 ® to inside of the collar. See following CAUTION.
CAUTION
• Apply Loctite 271 to the inside of the collar only, not to the shaft, so that the Loctite will be pushed
away from the bearing as the collar and bearing are pressed on. If Loctite gets on or in the bearing,
the bearing must be replaced.
• The collar should be removed no more than two times. If a collar is removed a third time, the shaft
and collar will not fit properly.
4. Place a new sealed bearing (71) on shaft (67 or 68) (Figure 20-7, Page 20-5) .
5. Install collar (73) onto axle shaft. Place axle assembly on bearing puller wedge attachment and press collar
onto axle.
6. Place the bearing puller wedge attachment against collar and press both bearing and collar onto shaft. See
following CAUTION.
CAUTION
• If the bearing was removed from the shaft, replace it with a new one.
• Do not tighten the bearing puller wedge attachment against the axle shaft. This could damage the axle
shaft when the bearing and collar are pressed on.
7. Use external snap ring pliers (0.047-in. tip) to install collar retaining ring (74) (Figure 20-7, Page 20-5) .
AXLE SHAFT INSTALLATION
1. Clean bearing and seal seats in axle tube (75 or 76) (Figure 20-7, Page 20-5) .
2. Place a new oil seal (72) in axle tube with seal lip facing inside of the axle tube (Figure 20-7, Page 20-5) . Use
an axle seal tool (CCI P/N 1012811) to press it in until it seats firmly in position (Figure 20-9, Page 20-7) .
See following NOTE.
NOTE: The new seal can be installed by tapping the axle seal tool with a mallet.
CAUTION
• Clean any residual oil from the exposed end of the axle shaft and from the oil seal area prior to
installing the axle shaft.
3. Clean the axle shaft and splines and then insert the shaft, splined end first, through the seal and into the axle
tube. Be careful not to damage the seal. Then advance the shaft through the inner bearing and rotate it to
align the shaft splines with the splined bore of the differential side gear. Continue advancing the shaft until the
bearing seats against the axle tube shoulder.
4. Install the bearing retaining ring (70) in the axle tube (Figure 20-7, Page 20-5). See also Figure 20-4, Page 20-4.
5. Place a 1/4 to 3/8-inch (6-10 mm) diameter rod against the retaining ring and tap lightly at four to five locations to
ensure it is properly seated.
See following WARNING.
