When servicing a final drive unit on a 4T65-E transaxle, use extreme caution to ensure that the internal gear thrust bearing (695) is properly seated/located.
It has been found that after servicing a final drive unit on 4T65-E transaxles, the internal gear thrust bearing (695) was not properly seated/located causing internal damage and a repeat repair.
Use a generous amount of Transgel J 36850 when installing the internal gear thrust bearing (695) to the park gear (696) to ensure the internal thrust bearing (695) will retain its proper position during assembly.
