Disassemble Output Shaft
Snap ring is spring steel and may pop off. Wear safety glass-
es when removing.
1. Mount shaft assembly in vise, using brass vise jaw
protectors. Remove snap ring, side gear and bearing
cone assembly.
2. Remove output shaft o-rings. If replacement is nec-
essary, remove bushing mounted in end of output
shaft.
Note: Output Shaft Bushings: In September 1994, a bushing-
less output shaft design change was implemented on
production 461, 521 and 581 model axles. Replace bush-
ings only if originally equipped.
3. Remove bearing cone from side gear using press and
split-type puller.
Assemble Output Shaft
Note: Lubricate parts with gear lube during assembly.
1. Press bearing cone on output shaft side gear.
Provide protection against possible gear teeth damage dur-
ing press operation.
2. Mount output shaft in a vise. Lubricate and install o-
rings. If removed, install bushing in end of output
shaft.
Note: Tandem Axles built after September 1994 are equipped
with bushingless output shafts. Verify output shaft de-
sign before attempting to install a bushing.
Snap ring is spring steel and may pop off. Wear safety glass-
es when installing.
3. Install side gear and bearing cone assembly. Install
snap ring, be careful not to over stretch the snap ring
when installing it into the shaft.
