1.
YZ7435UN: Install Final Drive Planetary Carrier Assembly
LEGEND:
D Planetary Carrier Assembly
K JDG890A Planetary Carrier Lifting Tool
Install BearingtoCarrier Thrust Washer (G).
2. Install Planetary Carrier Assembly (D) using JDG890A Planetary Carrier Lifting Tool (K).
3. Fingertighten Special Cap Screw (C), then carefully place axle assembly on its side.
4.
YZ7441UN: Lift Axle Assembly with Planetary Carrier Assembly
YZ7436UN: Tighten Special Cap Screw
LEGEND:
A Ring Gear
C Special Cap Screw
E Planet Gear
L Metal Pin
Temporarily install the Ring Gear (A) and insert a Metal Pin (L) in the Planet Gear (E) to Ring Gear (A) tooth to keep
the axle shaft from rotating during tighten procedure.
5. Tighten Special Cap Screw (C). Refer to Adjust Axle Bearings cross sectional drawing for call out (C).
6. Lift entire assembly to vertical position using a hoist. Turn axle three revolutions to make sure bearing cups and cones
are seated.
7. Loosen Special Cap Screw (C) several turns. Lift axle housing and tap axle flange with lead hammer to make sure
there is no preload on bearings.
8. IMPORTANT:
Rolling drag torque must be measured with axle in vertical position and cap screw loosened.
YZ7373UN: Measure Rolling Drag
Measure the Base Line Rolling Drag Torque using JDG10627 Axle Housing Removal/Rolling Drag Torque Tool .
Measurement must not exceed specification.
9. Remove Special Cap Screw (C) and Planetary Carrier Assembly (D). Refer to Adjust Axle Bearings cross sectional
drawing for call out (C and D).
10. NOTE:
Verify the bearing to carrier thrust washer is installed.
YZ7437UN: Place Lead Ball on end of Axle Shaft
LEGEND:
M R72232 Lead Balls
Put two 7.6—10.2 mm (0.3—0.4 in.) diameter Lead Balls (M) on end of axle shaft 180° apart. Use grease to hold balls
in position.
11.
YZ7373UN: Installing Carrier
Install the Planetary Carrier Assembly (D) and tighten the Special Cap Screw (C) to 196.6 N˙m (145 lbft). Refer to
Adjust Axle Bearings cross sectional drawing for call out (C and D).
12. New Bearings : Rotate the Planetary Carrier Assembly (D) at least 12 times in both directions and check rolling drag
torque. Torque must increase 16—32 N˙m (11.8—23.6 lbft) over baseline reading. For specifications listed below use
8—16 N˙m (5.9—11.8 lbft) over baseline unless axle spec is listed below. For those specs, use 816 N˙m over
baseline.
For New Bearings on the following specification numbers. Torque must increase 8—16 N˙m (5.9—11.8 lbft) over
baseline reading.

13. Increase Special Cap Screw (C) torque by 67.8 N˙m (50 lbft) if reading is low. Check rolling drag torque. Continue
procedure until correct increase in reading is obtained.
14. IMPORTANT:
Shims vary in thickness and need to be measured individually. Never measure an entire shim pack.
YZ7438UN: Shim Pack, Thick Washer, & CarriertoBearing Thrust Washer
LEGEND:
G CarriertoBearing Thrust Washer
H Shim Pack
J Thick Washer
Remove Planetary Carrier Assembly (D) and measure thickness of flattened Lead Balls (M). Average thickness of the
two Lead Balls (M) equals thickness of Shim Pack (H) required.
15. Raise axle housing 12.7 mm (0.5 in.) using a hoist. Tap the axle flange with a lead hammer to remove any preload on
the bearings.
16. Install Shim Pack (H) as measured with the Thick Washer (J) on top and with the thickest shim next to end of axle
shaft. Be sure BearingtoCarrier Thrust Washer (G) is in position.
17.
RW37324UN: Install Planetary Carrier Assembly
RW37368UN: Tighten Special Cap Screw
Install Planetary Carrier Assembly (D) and tighten Special Cap Screw (C).
18. New Bearing: Rotate axle housing 12 times and measure rolling drag torque. Torque must increase 16.0—32.0 N˙m
(11.8—23.6 lbft) over baseline reading. For specifications listed below use 8—16 N˙m (5.9—11.8 lbft) over baseline.
For New Bearings on the following specification numbers. Torque must increase 8—16 N˙m (5.9—11.8 lbft) over
baseline reading.

NOTE:
Adding or removing an 0.13 mm (0.005 in.) shim will change rolling drag torque by approximately
8.0 N˙m (71 lbin.).
19. Raise axle housing 13 mm (0.500 in.) before adding shims. Tap axle flange with a lead hammer to remove any
preload on bearings.
20. Adjust shim pack thickness and repeat the two proceeding steps until the required rolling drag torque is obtained.
IMPORTANT:
For USED bearings: Use the same shim pack thickness removed from between the axle shaft and carrier washer
during disassembly.
