Manual Description
In case of separation (except range of initial clearance) and disassembling of inner race, the wheel bearing must be replaced with a new part. Do not apply oil or grease to mating surfaces of wheel bearing outer race and knuckle. Press wheel hub into knuckle until it stops when the end of the wheel bearing is hit.
Push drive shaft, then press-fit circular clip on the drive shaft into circular clip groove of side gear. Put matching marks on slide joint housing and drive shaft before separating joint assembly. Before separating joint assembly, put matching marks on drive shaft and joint assembly.
When replacing only spider assembly, select a new spider assembly from among those listed in table below. Ensure that the number stamped on slide joint is the same as that stamped on new part. Cover drive shaft serration with tape to prevent damage to boot during installation.
