REPLACEMENT 

Special Tools Required  



Driver 07749-0010000  



Oil seal driver attachment 07947-SD90101  



Bearing installer attachment 07KAF-PS30120  



Bearing installer attachment 07LAF-PZ70110  



Installer shaft, 14 x 165 mm 07JAF-SJ80110  



1. Remove the 57 mm bearing outer race (A), 62 mm bearing outer race (B), and 50.3 mm bearing outer 

race (C) from the transfer housing by heating the transfer housing to about 212°F (100°C) with a heat 
gun. Do not heat the housing more than 212°F (100°C). Some 57 mm outer races are press-fitted in the 
transfer housing.

1. Select the 35 mm thrust shim if the transfer output shaft is replaced. Calculate the thickness of the 35 mm 

thrust shim using the formula, and select the shim from the table.

A: Number on the existing transfer output shaft  

B: Number on the replacement transfer output shaft  

C: Thickness of the existing 35 mm thrust shim  

X: Thickness needed for the replacement 35 mm thrust shim  

Example  



Check and adjust the transfer gear tooth contact.  



Measure and adjust the transfer gear backlash.  



Check and adjust the tapered roller bearing starting torque.  



Coat all parts with ATF during reassembly.  



Replace the tapered roller bearing and the bearing outer race as a set if 
either part is replaced.  



Replace the transfer drive gear and the transfer output shaft as a set if 
either part is replaced.  

NOTE:

The number on the transfer output shaft is shown in 1/100 mm.

THRUST SHIM, 35 mm  

THRUST SHIM THICKNESS SPECIFICATION 

2. Select the 35 mm thrust shim if the tapered roller bearing on the transfer output shaft is replaced. Measure 

the thickness of the replacement bearing and the existing bearing, and calculate the difference of the 
bearing thickness. Adjust the thickness of the existing 35 mm thrust shim by the amount of the difference 
in bearing thickness, and select the replacement 35 mm thrust shim from the table.  

3. Install the 35 mm thrust shim (A) on the transfer output shaft (B), then install the tapered roller bearing 

(C) with the 40 mm driver, 35 mm attachment, and a press.
