3. Install the transfer case assembly (1) onto the J 44755  (3). Position the carrier onto the post of the fixture.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

31. Position the case-left into a press.



32. Remove the gear (8), bearing (7), shim (5), and shaft (1) from the case-left. Mark or tag the shim for assembly.



33. Use the J 44380  (2) and the J 2619-01  (1) in order to remove the bearing races from the case-left (3).



34. Remove the oil seals (4) from the case-left.



35. Install the J 22912-B  (1) or equivalent onto the shaft.
36. Position the shaft into a press.
37. Remove the bearing from the shaft.



38. Install J 44380  (2) into the case-left idler gear bearing race.
39. Install J 2619-01  (1) to J 44380  (2).



40. Remove the idler gear bearing race (1) from the case-left.



41. Install the case-right (1) onto the J 44755  (2). Position the carrier onto the post of the fixture.



42. Remove the oil seal (1) from the case-right.



43. Remove the nut (1) from the carrier.



44. Position the case-right into a press.
45. Install the J 5590  (1) to the differential carrier.



46. Remove the bearing (2), shim (6) and differential carrier (8) from the case-right (4). Mark or tag the shim for assembly.
