(Figure 16a-5, Page 16a-3). See also Figure 16a-1, Page 16a-2.
4. Remove the axle, retaining ring, and bearing assembly by pulling the axle straight out of the housing.
5. If necessary, remove the axle oil seal and adapter ring.
5.1. Use a bearing puller (CCI P/N 1016417) to remove the axle seal and adapter ring from the axle tube
(Figure 16a-2, Page 16a-2). See following CAUTION and NOTE.
CAUTION
• Do not scar or damage the inside surfaces of the tube when removing the oil seal and adapter
ring. A damaged tube might have to be replaced.
NOTE: Do not discard the adapter ring. If the adapter ring is lost or damaged, the axle tube will have to be
replaced.
5.2. Use a press to separate the axle oil seal (15) from the adapter ring (39) (Figure 16a-3,
