3. Using a suitable press, install upper and lower
bearing cups into hub case.
4. Apply a layer of lithium grease to outer bearing
cup and surface.
5. Set case assembly over shaft until shaft's outer
tapered bearing cone is seated in cases's outer
bearing cup.
6. Carefully place shim over shaft making sure the
three holes in shim are properly aligned with
those on the shaft. Use same number of shims
that came out of unit to allow for correct shaft
bearing preload.
IMPORTANT: Holes in shaft, retainer plate and
shims must be aligned to ensure bolts can be
installed correctly.
7. Rotate bearing retainer plate inside secondary
carrier assembly so counterbored holes are
centered between planet gears.
8. Apply a layer of lithium grease to inner bearing
cup and surface.
9. Install inner bearing cone over splined end of
output shaft (small end down). Press bearing
down slowly until it is just seated against inner
bearing cup. With a slight press load still ap-
plied, rotate case by hand to ensure that roller
bearings are rotating evenly and smoothly.
10. Install secondary carier assembly into case.
Rotate seconedary carrier assembly back and
forth until planet gear teeth mesh with gear teeth
in case. Let carrier assembly down until carrier
spline touches output shaft spline. View down
through top os secondary carrier assembly
thorogh counterbored holes in retainer plate. If
needed, align holes in retainer plate directly over
holes in shaft and shims.
4. If necessary, gently tap planet pin into position
with a soft mallet, ensuring that roll in holes are
aligned and planet gear rotates freely.
5. Position a new roll pin in the carrier hole and
drive the pin into the hole until the end of the pin
is flush with carrier surface. Again, ensure that
planet gear rotates freely.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for the remaining
planet gears.
Secondary Carrier Assembly
1. Install the bearing retainer plate into the second-
ary carrier with the large diameter up.
2. Using the press, install bearing into planet gear,
making sure that the bearing cage is installed
squarely.
3. Apply a coating of multi-purpose grease to the
planet-mounted bearing rollers and carefully
insert planet gear and washers into the carrier
gear aperture.
4. Align carrier and gear bearing holes and insert
planet pin into the carrier with the chamfered
end of the roll pin hole on the same side as the
carrier roll pin hole.
5. If necessary, gently tap planet pin into position
with a soft mallet, ensuring that the rol pin is
flush with the carrier surface. Again, ensure that
the planet gear rotates freely.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for remaining planet
gears.
Hub Assembly
1. Replace shaft seal. Lubricate inner lip of new
seal and turn so open side is facing upward.
Slide seal down output shaft to gear teeth. It
must fit snug over seal diameter on shaft.
2. With large end down, press outer bearing cone
onto output shaft. Be sure it is seated properly.
