2. When the correct drive gear tooth pattern and bearing preload
are confirmed remove the pinion nut and flange.
3. Locate a seal in position. Using a mallet and the seal driver
tool, carefully tap the seal into the carrier bore until the tool is
flat against the top of the carrier.
4. Install the input flange onto the drive pinion shaft.
NOTE: The flange must be fully seated against the outer pinion
bearing before the nut is tightened to the torque specification.
The flange must be held with a suitable service tool to tighten the
nut and a torque multiplier will be required to achieve the correct
torque value of 2000-2500 Nm.
See Section 4 for Assembly Flange and Pinion Seal.
