Install needle bearings with the lettering on the 
bearing (the side with thicker metal) facing the 
drift. 
     Insert bearing with transmission oil or ATF, 
depending on installation location. 
     Tapered roller bearings for output shaft and 
differential in rear final drive are low-friction 
bearings. Do not grease new tapered roller 
bearings additionally for friction torque 
measurement. The bearings are already 
greased with a special oil from the factory for 
this reason. 
     Do not interchange inner and outer bearing 
races with those from other bearings of the 
same size. 
     Tapered roller bearings are allocated to the 
date of transmission manufacture and code 
letters in the parts catalog. 
     Always replace tapered roller bearings on one 
shaft together and use new bearings from the 
same manufacturer.
