Axle Bearing and Shaft TRANSAXLE: ELECTRIC VEHICLE
Axle Shaft and Oil Seal Installation
1. If previously removed, install a new oil seal.
1.1. Clean seal seat in the adapter ring (39) (Figure 18-3, Page 18-2) .
1.2. Place a new seal (15) in the adapter ring with the seal lip facing toward the adapter ring lip (Figure 18-3,
Page 18-2) . Use an axle seal tool (P/N 1014162) and mallet to tap it in until it seats firmly in position
(Figure 18-3, Page 18-2) . A hydraulic press may also be used with the axle seal tool.
1.3. Clean adapter ring seat(s) in the axle tube (14 or 35) (Figure 18-5, Page 18-3) .
1.4. Apply Loctite ® 603 to the outer diameter of the adapter ring.
1.5. Place the oil seal and adapter ring assembly into the axle tube with the seal lip facing away from the bearing
(Figure 18-4, Page 18-2) . Use an axle seal tool (P/N 1014162) and mallet to tap it in until it seats firmly
in position. See following CAUTION.
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 to prevent oil from coming in contact with brakes.
2. Install the rear axle into the transaxle. See following NOTE.
2.1. Insert the shaft, splined end first, through the seal and into the axle tube. Be careful not to damage the seal
on the inside of the axle tube hub. Advance the shaft through to the bearing on the shaft, then rotate it to
align the shaft splines with the splined bore of the differential side gear (27)
(Figure 18-5, Page 18-3) .
Continue advancing the shaft until the bearing on the axle is firmly seated within the axle tube hub seat.
2.2. Use a pair of snap ring pliers to install the retaining ring (6) inside axle tube hub so that it seats against
the axle bearing assembly and into the machined slot in the inside wall of the axle tube hub (Figure
18-5, Page 18-3) .
NOTE: If the retaining ring (6), axle bearing (5), or sleeve (4) must be replaced, the entire axle shaft assembly (1
or 2) must be replaced (Figure 18-5, Page 18-3) .
2.3. Place a 1/4 to 3/8-inch (6 to 10 mm) diameter rod against the retaining ring and tap lightly at four to five
locations around the retaining ring to ensure it is properly seated. See following WARNING.
WARNING
• Be sure the retaining ring is properly seated in its groove. If the ring is not properly installed, the axle
assembly will separate from the transaxle and damage the axle assembly and other components. Loss
of vehicle control could result, causing severe personal injury or death.
3. If a new oil seal was installed, allow 24 hours before operating the vehicle to allow the Loctite ® 603 to fully cure.
AXLE BEARING
Do not remove the axle bearing (5) from a Type G transaxle. If bearing is worn or damaged, the entire axle assembly
(1 or 2) must be replaced
(Figure 18-5, Page 18-3) .
