TRANSMISSION OUTPUT SHAFT REAR
BEARING OIL SEAL
a. Removal
Disconnect the front universal joint and secure
propeller shaft out of the way. Apply the hand
brake or use wrench Tool C-3281 (Fig. 42) and
remove the propeller shaft flange nut and wash-
er. Release hand brake and install puller, Tool
C-452 (if necessary). Remove the propeller
shaft flange and brake drum assembly. Remove
the transmission brake support grease shield
spring (small spring). Remove brake support
grease shield from extension.
CAUTION
If screw driver or sharp instrument is used in
performing this operation, care must be exer-
cised not to damage the neoprene sealing sur-
face at bottom of shield.
Install puller, Tool C-748 and remove the
transmission output shaft rear bearing oil seal.
b.
Installation
Using driver, Tool C-3205, install output shaft
rear bearing oil seal (metal portion of seal
facing in) until driver bottoms on extensions,
(Fig. 72). Install brake support grease shield
on extension housing.
CAUTION
Indent on grease shield must match groove in
extension for correct positioning. Also, shield
must be located on extension far enough to per-
mit installation of spring.
Install brake support grease shield spring
(opening in spring toward adjusting sleeve).
Make sure spring is properly seated in groove.
Install propeller shaft flange and drum assem-
bly. Install propeller shaft flange washer (con-
vex side towards nut) and nut. Apply hand
brake or use wrench Tool C-3281, and tighten
propeller shaft flange nut to specifications.
Connect front universal joint and tighten nuts

EXTENSION
a. Removal
Raise vehicle off floor. Drain approximately
two quarts of fluid from transmission. Discon-

speedometer drive pinion and sleeve assembly.
Remove nuts and lockwashers that hold engine
rear support insulator to crossmember, leaving
insulator attached to extension housing.
Using suitable jack (or engine support fix-
ture Tool C-3487) raise transmission sufficiently
to allow output shaft support to clear cross-
member. Remove four of the remaining exten-
sion to case screws and lockwashers and install
guide studs, Tool C-3283. Due to interference
of the insulator, it will be necessary to remove
the bottom extension to case screw with the
extension. That is, back screw out as far as
possible and slide extension back and continue
loosening of screw.
CAUTION
Do not remove the one output shaft support to
transmission case screw.
Remove extension and hand brake as one as-
sembly. If care is used, it is not necessary to
