2. Clear the axle shaft from the output flange studs
3. Remove and keep safe the camber shim
10. NOTE: The axle shaft nuts may damage the studs upon
removal; check the thread conditio n by engaging a new nut 2 or 3
threads by hand.
Inspect the output flange studs and renew if there is evidence
of damage / distortion
11. Clean all traces of thread lo cking agent from the hub splines

1. Installation is the re verse of the removal procedure, noting the
following.
2. Secure the axle shaft.
1.
Apply thread locking agent, to the SPLINE, as
indicated.
2. Refer to the illustration - do NOT re-use the original
nut.

2. Remove and discard the (4) nuts axle shaft to differential output shaft
3. Remove and keep safe the camber shim
4. T

6. Prepare the retaining collar for removal
Page 292 of 2490

In
stallation
1.
Mark the bearing retaining collar axially
6. CAUTION: Do not drill into the output shaft, it is
not necessary to break the inside diameter of the collar
2. Drill 3 off holes 4,0 mm dia equally spaced, to a MAXIMUM depth of 5,0 mm
7. Re
move the retaining collar
7. CAUTION: There is no need to split the collar
when chiselling
W i
th a suitable chisel strike
the collar across the three
drilled holes (along the axis of the output shaft) to relieve
tension within the steel
8. CAUTIO
N: The original bearing must NOT be reused
Using a suitable press remove an d discard the bearing, collar
and circlip
1. Ins

necessary
2. Id
entify the circlip cross section
1. This circlip is correct
2. This circlip MUST be di scarded and the correct one
used
3. Fit the bearing using special tool 204 - 083
1. Position a new circlip
2. Locate the bearing
3. Locate the collar
• NOTE: It is strongly reco mmended that a press equipped
with a pressure gauge is us ed, the assembly load MUST
exceed 20Kn

undercut by applying outwar d radial pressure. Start
diametrically opposite to the circlip open ends and lever
against the drive flange
6. Verify the circlip location
1. The gap MUST be greater than 10,0 mm

CAUTIO
N: If the gap CANNOT be achieved,
contact Jaguar Service
2. A gap smaller than specified will indicate an improperly fitted circlip. This may be rectified by
refitting or by the application of radial pressure
around the inner circum ference of the circlip
7. Verify t
