If it becomes necessary to replace a front axle
bearing on a straight splined driveshaft, the
following procedures MUST be followed during
reinstallation to ensure the proper performances
and longevity of the replacement bearings.
1. Apply shaft sealer (Loctite@ 680 High
Strength@) (Winnebago part number
076062-01-700). Do not use any other form of
Loctite@for this operation, as it will not meet
the required specifications. Be careful not to
apply shaft sealer onto the surrounding parts.
2. When reinstalling the assembly, always
replace the driveshaft washer (Winnebago
part number R79030-53-143) and the
driveshaft nut (included in Front Bearing Kit -
Left or Right - Winnebago part number
R77014-62-021).
3. Torque tighten the driveshaft nut to 25 daNm
(184 Ib.lft.)
