If the housing (15) has been com-
ring
pletely disassembled, place the
housing, mounting flange end
down, on a clean work surface.
Install retaining ring (18) into the
housing retaining ring groove. Be
sure the rounded edge of retaining
ring is facing in toward the larger
housing cavity. Use appropriate
retaining ring pliers. SEE FIGURE

Thoroughly grease the rolls of a
NEW bearing (19) with clean
wheel bearing. grease. Press the
bearing into housing (15) from the
mounting flange end of the
housing bore, using bearing
mandrel (special tool FIGURE 1,
Page 7A) against the lettered end
of the bearing shell. SEE FIGURES
32 and 33. Take care during this
procedure that the housing is
square with the press base and
that the bearing is not cocked. The
bearing mandrel will control the
bearing (19) press depth to the
required .135/.125 inches
(3.43/3.18 mm) from the flange
end of the housing.
NOTE:
NOTE: If the bearing mandrel
shown is not available, alternate
methods may be used to press in
the bearing but the bearing depth
location must be maintained.
CAUTION
CAUTION: The controlled press
depth of bearing (12) and (19)
into the housing is required to
ensure adequate bearing support,
and correct bearing relationship to
adjacent components when
assembled.
CAUTION
CAUTION: Because bearings (12)
and (19) have a press fit into the
housing, they must be discarded if
removed from the housing. They
must not be reused.
