Input Shaft Bearing (Removal and Installation)
REMOVAL1. If damaged, remove input cluster shaft bearing using pinion bearing cone remover tool No. D79L-4621-A, or equivalent, and an arbor press. Label bearings for proper installation.
NOTE: Three cups (two on four speed transaxles) which support the bearings are located in the transmission case and three cups (two on four speed transaxles) are located in the clutch housing case. The bearing cups are not pressed into the case, but are slip-fit and may be removed and installed by hand. Shims to preload the bearings are located behind the bearing cups in the transmission case. It is necessary to keep the preload shim with its matching cup during disassembly.
Clutch Housing Funnel:
2. After removal of the mainshaft bearing cup from the clutch housing, the funnel may be removed from the bearing cup bore. The funnel directs lubricant to a drilled hole in the center of the main shaft where it lubricates the gears.
INSTALLATION
1. Reverse procedure to install. Ensure bearings are pressed on proper end as labeled during disassembly.
Service Shim Replacement Chart:
2. The bearing cups should be lubricated lightly prior to installation. Whenever the preload bearing shims are replaced, a service shim should be installed in place of the original shim as shown in the Service Shim Replacement Chart.
