5. Bend slightly the shaft and slip the jaw
coupling and the keyless bushing out of the
shaft. Slip the pinion and guide wheel
assembly out of the shaft and replace them.
6. Replace the keyless bushing. Change it if
damaged. Replace the jaw coupling on the
shaft.
7. Screw back the pillow block supporting plate
on the vehicle structure.
8. Re-engage the jaw coupling.
9. Synchronize the new pinion as described in
section 5.6.
Caution: Make sure the keyless bushing is
tightened to 125 lb-ft before unlocking the pins
or moving the slide-out. Refer to section 5.6 for
torque wrench settings.
5.5 REAR SLIDE-OUT LOWER
SHAFT PINION REPLACEMENT
1. The slide-out must be retracted and all the
pins locked.
2. Loosen the keyless bushing of the lower
shaft pinion to be changed.
3. Disengage the lower shaft jaw coupling.
4.
For the motor side pinion only:
Remove
the gearbox support (see section 7.2).
5. Remove the pinion and the keyless bushing
from the shaft.
6. Check the keyless bushing and the guide
wheel condition and replace them if needed
(see section 5.7).
7. Reinstall the new pinion and the keyless
bushing on the shaft without tightening the
bushing.
8. Re-engage the jaw coupling and adjust the
gearbox support if necessary.
9. Tighten the pinion keyless bushing as
described in section 5.6.
Caution: Make sure all keyless bushings are
tightened to 125 lb-ft before unlocking the pins
or moving the slide-out. Refer to section 5.6 for
torque wrench settings.
5.6 PINION SYNCHRONIZATION
Caution: The front slide-out upper shaft pinions
may have to be readjusted and re-synchronized
after a load variation in the slide-out.
The four pinions need to be synchronized for the
slide-out to move straight when extending and
retracting. This synchronization is possible with
the use of Trantorque keyless bushings. These
keyless bushings need a specific tightening
torque value to ensure proper pinion transmitting
torque. They also need specific tools to be
tightened, as described in section 18.2.
