11. Making sure the O-ring is properly positioned on
the gear case housing, install the housing with
existing hardware. Account for the ID tag. Tighten
the cap screws to specifications.
NOTE: Grease can be applied to the O-ring for
ease of assembling.
NOTE: If a new gear case housing is being
installed, tighten the cap screws to 3.5-4.3 kg-m
(25-31 ft-lb).
Removing Needle Bearing
NOTE: Removing the needle bearing is rarely
necessary. Avoid removing the needle bearing
unless the bearing is clearly damaged.
NOTE: This procedure can be performed on a
rear gear case.
1. Place a 6.35 mm (1/4 in.) drill bit on the inside sur-
face of the needle bearing (against the bottom
side); then drill through the pinion shaft needle
bearing housing.
