YOKE OR FLANGE INSTALLATION
ON INTERFERENCE FIT SPLINES
CAUTION: Do not install tight fit yokes or
flanges on shafts using a hammer or mallet.
A hammer or mallet will damage the yoke or
flange.
1. Apply axle lubricant on the yoke or flange seal.
2. Check all surfaces of the yoke or flange hub for damage. If
necessary, polish the hub with an india stone, emery cloth or
crocus cloth.

4. Slide the yoke or flange over the pilot shaft. Align.the yoke
or flange splines with the shaft splines.
5. Put the collar on the pilot shaft and slide it against the
yoke or flange.
6. Install the nut on the pilot shaft and against the collar.
Tighten the nut against collar until the yoke or flange is com-
pletely in position on the shaft. Sometimes a torque value of 200
lb. ft. on the nut is required to install the yoke or flange correctly.
CAUTION: Do not use the assembly yoke
or flange nut for installation purposes. Use
the nut that is supplied with the three-piece
pilot tool. ·
7. Remove all parts of the pilottool from the shaft (pilot shaft.
collar and nut).
8. Install the washer (if required) and yoke or flange nut on
the shaft Tighten the nut to minimum 800 ft. lbs. (1,085 Nm),
maximum 1,100 ft. lbs. (1.492 Nm).
ASSEMBLING THE DRIVE PINION, BEARINGS
AND BEARING CAGE
1. Put the bearing cage in a press-(Figure 2-40).
2. Support the bearing cage with metal or wood blocks.
3. Press the bearing cup into the bore of bearing cage until
cup is flat against bottom of bore. Use a sleeve of the correct
size to install bearing CL!P (Figure 2-40).
Figure 2-40. Pressing In Bearing Cup.
NOTE: Use the same procedure for both
bearing cups.
4. Put the drive pinion in a press, gear head (teeth) toward
the bottom (Figure 2-41).
5. Press the inner bearing cone on the shaft of the drive
pinion until the cone is flat against the gear head. Use a sleeve
of the correct size against the bearing inner race.
