DRIVE SHAFT ASSEMBLY
FRONT AXLE 26-16
CAUTION
•
Do not pull on the drive shaft; doing so will
damage the TJ; be sure to use the pry bar.
•
When pulling the drive shaft out from the
transmission, be careful that the spline part of
the drive shaft does not damage the oil seal.
3. Insert a pry bar between the transmission case
and the drive shaft, and then pry and remove the
drive shaft from the transmission.
4. Use special tool plug (MB991460) to prevent the
entry of foreign material into the transmission
case.
CAUTION
Do not apply pressure to the wheel bearing by
the vehicle weight to avoid possible damage
when the drive shaft is removed. If, however,
vehicle weight must be applied to the bearing in
moving the vehicle, temporarily secure the wheel
bearing by using the following special tools.
