Front Differential Drive Pinion Gear 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.
