Driveshaft Bearing Housing
Service
The driveshaft bearing is not serviceable. Replace
the bearing housing assembly if the bearing is
worn or damaged. Also, inspect the driveshaft
bearing surface if the bearing is damaged.
Seal Removal
Remove the driveshaft bearing housing seals
using Puller Bridge, P/N 432127, and Large Puller
Jaws, P/N 432129. Discard the seals.
Remove and discard the O-ring from the bearing
housing.
Clean the bearing housing in solvent to remove
sealer from the seal bore and the O-ring groove.
Seal Installation
Lightly apply Gasket Sealing Compound to a new
O-ring. Install the O-ring in top groove of the bear-
ing housing. Do not allow sealant in oil passage.
IMPORTANT: Do not install the O-ring in the
bearing housing’s bottom groove. The bottom
groove is an oil passage. Gearcase damage could
result.
Apply Gasket Sealing Compound to metal casings
of new seals before installing.
Use Seal Installation Tool, P/N 330268 to install
new seals back to back in bearing housing. Install
inner seal with lip facing toward bearing housing,
then the outer seal with lip facing away from bear-
ing housing. Apply Triple-Guard grease to seal
lips.
