Installation
1) Apply Multipurpose Grease (SAE J310) to oil seal. Install\

oil seal using seal driver. Apply grease to outside circumference of
bearing outer race. Apply grease to lip of oil seal and to roller
surfaces of bearing inner race.

case. Install left axle shaft into rear housing. Tighten nuts
diagonally to 36-43 ft. lbs. (49-58 N.m).
5) Install right axle shaft without shims and "O" ring.
Temporarily tighten to about 53 INCH lbs. (6 N.m). Using a feeler
gauge, measure clearance between bearing case and rear axle housing.
6) Remove right axle shaft. Install shims to equal bearing
case-to-axle housing clearance plus .002-.008" (.05-.20 mm). Install
"O" ring to right rear axle housing. Apply sealant to mating surfaces
of bearing case and shim. See Fig. 10.
7) Install axle into housing, tightening nuts diagonally to
36-43 ft. lbs. (50-58 N.m). Check axle shaft for .002-.008" (.05-.20
mm) end play using dial indicator.

Removal (Pickup & Ram-50)
1) With drum removed, disconnect brake line from wheel

cylinder. Disconnect parking brake cable end, and remove cable
attaching bolts. Remove brake backing plate, bearing case and axle
shaft as an assembly. If axle shaft binds, use slide hammer with
puller to remove.
2) Remove shims, "O" ring and snap ring. Retain shims for
reassembly. Secure axle shaft assembly in a vise, and remove one
retainer bolt from backing plate. Push bearing case completely to side
of dust cover. Place adhesive tape around edge of bearing case at
retainer bolt hole to prevent damage.
3) Secure axle shaft, and grind retainer ring until retainer
ring wall thickness is .04-.06" (1.0-1.5 mm) on axle shaft side and
retainer ring wall thickness is .08" (2.0 mm) on bearing side. See
Fig. 11.
CAUTION: DO NOT damage bearing case or axle shaft when grinding or
chiseling retainer ring.
4) Change angle of grind, and remove remaining .08" (2.0 mm)\
of retainer ring wall on bearing side. See Fig. 11. Using a chisel,
cut retainer ring, and remove. DO NOT damage axle shaft.
