wear or stress with subsequent replacement of worn parts eliminates costly drive component repair after z Lubricate the bearings with axle lubricant. Inspect the bearings for smooth rotation. z Inspect the bearing rollers for wear. z Inspect the bearing cups for wear, cracks, brinelling, and scoring. PINION AND RING GEAR INSPECTION Ring and pinion gears are matched sets. When replacement of one or the other is necessary, both the ring and z Check the pinion and ring gear teeth for cracking, chipping, scoring, or excessive wear. z Check the pinion gear splines for wear. z Check the pinion flange/yoke splines for wear. z Check the fit of the pinion gear splines on the pinion flange/yoke. z Check the sealing surface of the pinion flange/yoke for nicks, burrs or rough tool marks that could z Check for worn or broken parts and replace as necessary. REAR AXLE HOUSING INSPECTION Carefully and thoroughly inspect all drive unit parts before assembly. Thorough inspection of the drive parts for z Inspect for nicks or burrs that could prevent the outer diameter of the pinion seal from sealing. Remove z Inspect the bearing cup bores for nicks or burrs. Remove any burrs that are found. z Inspect the housing for cracks. Replace the housing if any cracks are found. z Inspect the housing for foreign material such as metal chips, dirt, or rust. SHIMS INSPECTION Inspect the shims for cracks and chips. Replace the damaged shims. IMPORTANT: The differential bearings and the bearing cups are matched sets. Replace both the bearing and the cup when either part requires replacement. IMPORTANT: z Do not reinstall the original cast iron production shims, if removed. Once z If service shims were previously installed, the shims can be reused.
