Front Differential Carrier Bearing Cup Replacement - Case Side



Callout Component Name
1 Front Differential Bearing Cup
Warning

Support the back side of the case before installing the bearing cup. Apply a light coating of transmission fluid to the bore before pressing the cup into position. Install the bearing cup until it stops moving. Applying excessive pressure to the bearing cup once it is seated could cause damage to the case casting.


Warning

An unseated or improperly installed bearing cup will result in premature bearing failure. Visually inspect the bearing cup to insure there is no "clearance" between the case, thrust washer, and the bearing cup. Use of a feeler gauge may assist in identifying a bearing cup that is not fully seated.


Warning

Failure to apply the lubricant will cause damage to the bolt and nut threads.


Note
Tighten DT-47927-2 which is part of DT-47927 cup remover until it fits snugly on the bearing cup.

Adjust DT 45124 removal bridge so it sits on the torque converter housing surface just beyond the bearing cup opening.

Apply the extreme pressure lubricant DT 23444-A extreme press lubricant to the puller bolt threads to prevent damage to the bolt threads during bearing cup removal.

Hold the puller bridge bolt and turn the nut to remove the bearing cup.
