Pinion Bearing Cups

Tools Required:

NOTE: Do not remove the pinion bearing cups from the carrier unless the cups are damaged.

If the pinion bearing cups are to be replaced, tap alternately (with a brass drift of suitable length) on each side of the cups during removal to prevent cups from cocking in the carrier bore.

NOTE: To ensure proper seating, clean bores before installing cups.

Install the new cups with Pinion Bearing Cup Replacer T71P-4616-A. Make sure the cups are properly seated in their bores. If a 0.038mm (0.0015 inch) feeler gauge can be inserted between a cup and the bottom of its bore at any point around the cup, the cup is not properly seated. Whenever the cups are replaced, the cone and roller assembly should also be replaced.
