1. Replace all O-rings, seals, and worn components.
2. Press pinion shaft seal into pinion cover until flush
with sealing surface.
3. Inspect pinion and output shaft bushings.
4. Inspect bearings on output and pinion shafts. To
replace, press new bearing on to shaft.
NOTE: Due to extremely close tolerances and mini-
mal wear, the bearings must be inspected visually, and
by feel. While rotating bearings by hand, inspect for
rough spots, discoloration, or corrosion. The bearings
should turn smoothly and quietly, with no detectable
up and down movement and minimal movement side
to side.
5. Clean pinion shaft and lock nut with PrimerNt
and apply red LocTitet to threads. Tighten lock
nut to specification.
