Disassembly

NOTE:

Supporting the gear on the concave side of the puller can cause damage to the gear.

Be sure to support the gear on the flat side of the puller.

1) Remove circlip (1) using special tool and then remove washer.
Special Tool

(A): 09900-06107





2) Remove left bearing (2) and 6th gear (3) using puller (4) and hydraulic press, and then remove 5th gear spacer.

CAUTION:
Using an inappropriate hydraulic press or bearing puller could cause personal injury.

Make sure that both the hydraulic press and bearing puller are capable of safely bearing a load of at least 5 tons (11,000 lbs).









3) Apply puller (3) to 4th gear (2) and remove 5th gear (1) with 4th gear using hydraulic press.





4) Remove circlip (1) using special tool.

(A): 09900-06107





5) Apply puller (3) to 2nd gear (2) and remove 3rd gear (1) with 2nd gear using hydraulic press.





6) Apply puller (4) to reverse gear (3) and remove low speed synchronizer sleeve & hub assembly (1), 1st gear (2) with reverse gear using hydraulic press.






7) Grind portion "a" of right bearing (1) using grinder (2) as shown.

NOTE:
The shaft (3) will be damaged if the bearing is ground too much.

Limit the amount of grinding to the minimum amount necessary.





8) Break the thinnest portion of bearing inner race (2) with a chisel (1) and remove bearing.
