Support Bearing Replacement
1. Remove the rear propshaft from the vehicle (see
“Rear Propshaft Removal” procedure).
2. Using a rubber mallet, remove the rubber isolated
bearing support from the shaft to expose the bearing.
3. Using a commercially available 2-jaw puller, remove
the bearing from the end of the propshaft.
4. Clean the bearing mounting surface on the shaft and
apply Loctite
®
603
™
retaining compound to the clean
surface.
5. Install the new support bearing assembly onto the end
of the propshaft.
IMPORTANT: Do not attempt to separate the bearing
from the rubber isolated support assembly upon
installation.
6. Using an appropriate bearing/bushing installation
sleeve, drive the support bearing assembly onto the
propshaft until it seats against the shoulder on the
shaft.
IMPORTANT: Take care while installing the support
bearing assembly. Be sure to only drive on the inner
race of the bearing. Driving on the bearing or support
in any other location will damage the bearing or
support assembly.
7. Wipe the bearing and shaft clean of any excess
retaining compound.
NOTE: Use care to not allow any of the Loctite
®
compound to get in the bearing.
8. Install the rear propshaft into the vehicle (see “Rear
Propshaft Installation” procedure).
