Note: After pulling out, check shim for damage and replace if necessary.





Fig. 2 Installing tapered roller bearing outer race on clutch housing
- Insert shim before.





Fig. 3 Removing tapered roller bearing inner race
- Place 40-105 pressure actuator onto differential housing before installing puller.

Note: Removing of both tapered roller bearing inner races from differential housing is identical.





Fig. 4 Installing tapered roller bearing inner race

Note: Tapered roller bearing inner races for transmission housing and clutch housing are pressed on using the same pressing tools.





Fig. 5 Removing tapered roller bearing outer race from transmission housing
A - Support, i.e. Kukko 22/2
B - Inner puller 46...58 mm, i.e. Kukko 21/7





Fig. 6 Installing tapered roller bearing outer race into transmission housing
- Support transmission housing with 3345 press tool directly below bearing support.
