Tools Required

Notice: Bearings and cups must be replaced as a set. Do not replace a bearing without also replacing the corresponding cup, or replace a cup without replacing the corresponding bearing. Failure to replace both components may damage the front differential carrier assembly.

1. Using the J 22912-B and an arbor press, remove the bearing assembly from the front differential carrier assembly - torque converter and differential housing side.




Important: The front differential carrier assembly must be disassembled in order to use the J 45189 and remove the bearing assembly on the transmission case side.

2. Disassemble the front differential carrier assembly. Refer to Front Differential Carrier Disassemble .
3. Attach the J 45189 to the bearing assembly on the front differential carrier assembly - transmission case side.



4. Using the J 45189 , a brass drift and a hammer, remove the bearing assembly from the front differential carrier assembly - transmission case side.



5. Using the J 43076 and an arbor press, install the bearing assembly on the front differential carrier assembly - transmission case side.




Important: Perform Step  6 for 2WD applications. Perform Step 7 for F4WD applications.

6. Using the J 43076 and an arbor press, install the bearing assembly on the front differential carrier assembly - torque converter and differential housing side.



7. Using the J 35512 and an arbor press, install the bearing assembly on the front differential carrier assembly - torque converter and differential housing side.



8. Install the J 45191 into the front differential carrier bearing cup on the transmission case assembly.
9. Using 2 wrenches, tighten the J 45191 .



10. Using a wrench, the J 45191  (2) and the J 45124  (1), remove the front differential carrier bearing cup from the transmission case assembly.

Important: The bearing shim is reusable.

11. Remove the front differential carrier bearing shim from the transmission case assembly.



12. Remove the 3 bolts and the transmission fluid baffle from the torque converter and differential housing assembly.




Important: Use the J 45191 for 2WD applications. Use the J 45114 for F4WD applications.

13. Install the J 45191 or the J 45114 into the front differential carrier bearing cup on the torque converter and differential housing assembly.
14. Using the 2 wrenches, tighten the J 45191 or the J 45114 .



15. Using a wrench, the J 45124 , the J 45191 or the J 45114 , remove the front differential carrier bearing cup from the torque converter and differential housing assembly.

Important: The bearing shim is reusable.

16. Remove the front differential carrier bearing shim from the torque converter and differential housing assembly.



17. Install the front differential carrier bearing shim into the transmission case assembly.



18. Using the J 8092  (1), the J 43076  (2) and a hammer, install the front differential carrier bearing cup into the transmission case assembly.



19. Install the front differential carrier bearing shim into the torque converter and differential housing assembly.




Important: Use the J 43076 for 2WD applications. Use the J 44719 for F4WD applications.

20. Using the J 8092  (1), the J 43076  (2) or the J 44719  (2) and a hammer, install the front differential carrier bearing cup into the torque converter and differential housing assembly.




Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

21. Install the transmission fluid baffle and the 3 bolts on the torque converter and differential housing assembly.

Tighten
Tighten the fluid baffle bolts to 11 N·m (8 lb ft).
