into the support bracket (17) and lower housing (2) to 25–35 ft-lb (33.9–47.5 N-m).
To insure that the u-joint splined shaft assembly does not eject from
the splined sleeve, it must be held in position until at least an upper and
lower screw are in place.
10. Lightly grease and assemble lock bar (36) onto main housing (18) with the locating pin up and
engaging the teeth with the support bracket (17) teeth. Assemble spring (38) on end of lock bar.
11. Lightly grease and assemble wedge lock (35) next to lock bar with tapered end toward the sup-
port bracket teeth and the locating pin up. Assemble spring (37) onto end of wedge lock.
12. Lightly grease and assemble disengaging plate (34) with the tabs up, over the lock bar (36) and
wedge lock (35) locating pins.
13. If disassembled, assemble lock pin (29) into actuator cam (32) with spring hole in cam and lock
pin facing each other, and press pivot pin (31) into its hole in the lock pin and actuator cam until
it is flush to .015 inches (.381 mm) below actuator cam. Insert end of spring (30) into hole in
lock pin, then the other end in actuator cam spring hole. Grease and insert lock pin assembly into
its bushing in main housing assembly (18) with actuator cam ears over disengaging plate (34)
raised tabs.
