(24) Remove front carrier/rear annulus assembly
and #6 needle bearing (Fig. 38).
(25) Remove rear sun gear and #7 needle bearing
(Fig. 39).
NOTE: The number 7 needle bearing has three anti-
reversal tabs and is common with the number five
and number two position. The orientation should
allow the bearing to seat flat against the rear sun
gear (Fig. 40). A small amount of petrolatum can be
used to hold the bearing to the rear sun gear. (26) Setup tool 5058 as shown in (Fig. 41). Com-
press 2/4 clutch return spring (just enough to remove
snap ring) and remove snap ring.
NOTE: Verify that Tool 5058 is centered properly
over the 2/4 clutch retainer before compressing. If
necessary, fasten the 5058 bar to the bellhousing
flange with any combination of locking pliers and
bolts to center the tool properly.
NOTE: The 2/4 Clutch Piston has bonded seals
which are not individually serviceable. Seal replace-
ment requires replacement of the piston assembly.

NOTE: The 2/4 Clutch Piston has bonded seals
which are not individually serviceable. Seal replace-
ment requires replacement of the piston assembly.(45) Orient 2/4 clutch return spring to retainer as
shown in (Fig. 131), and install to transaxle (Fig.
132).
(46) Using tool 5058, compress 2/4 clutch return
spring just enough to install snap ring (Fig. 133). (47) Install snap ring. (48) Set up dial indicator as shown in (Fig. 134)
and measure 2/4 clutch clearance. Press down on
clutch pack with finger and zero dial indicator. 2/4
clutch pack clearance is 0.76-2.64 mm
(0.030-0.104 in.). Set up indicator and record mea-
surement in four (4) places. Take average of read-
ings. If clearance is outside this range, the clutch is
assembled improperly. There is no adjustment for
2/4 clutch clearance.

OPERATION
The differential assembly is driven by the transfer
shaft by way of the differential ring gear. The ring
gear drives the differential case, and the case drives
the driveshafts through the differential gears. The
differential pinion and side gears are supported in
the case by thrust washers and a pinion shaft. Dif-
ferential pinion and side gears make it possible for
front tires to rotate at different speeds while corner-
ing.
DISASSEMBLY
NOTE: The differential is serviced as an assembly.
The only parts that are serviceable within the differ-
ential are the differential bearing cups and cones. If
any other part fails within the differential, you must
replace the differential assembly along with the
transfer shaft.
The transfer shaft should be removed for differen-
tial repair and bearing turning torque checking. (1) Remove the differential cover and bolts (Fig.
169) (Fig. 170).
(2) Remove the differential bearing retainer and
bolts (Fig. 171) (Fig. 172). (3) Using a plastic hammer, remove extension
housing/adapter plate on the right side of the trans-
axle.
WARNING: HOLD ONTO DIFFERENTIAL ASSEMBLY
TO PREVENT IT FROM ROLLING OUT OF HOUSING.
(4) Remove differential assembly.
