Section 6 Prepare Parts for Assembly AxleTech International Inspect Face Seals Inspect the rubber elements and metal rings for wear, damage or distortion. If there isa problem with either ring, then always replace both sings with a matched pais of rings. A matched pair is two new rings or two Used rings that have been run together: Do mot use one new and one used ring or two used rings that were not run together or leaks may occur Figure 68.

Repair or Replace Parts Replace worn or damaged parts of the wet dise brake assembly. The following are some examples to check 1. Replace any fasteners if the corners of the head are 2. Replace the washers iF damaged. 3. Replace the oil seals, face seals and gaskets when the ‘components are separated from each other Clean the parts before applying silicone gasket material Remove small damage from the parts that have ‘machined ot ground surfaces. Use a fine-ooth fle, india stone, emery cloth or erocus cloth for this, purpose. 6, Clean and repair the threads ofthe fasteners and the holes. Use tap or a die of the correct size or a fine- tooth file for this purpose A CAUTION The threads must be clean and not damaged so that ‘accurate adjustments and correct torque values can be ‘applied to fasteners and parts. 7 Tighten all fasteners to the correct torque value. See Seetion 10, Torque Chart for the torque value ofthe cn
