1. Check the shaft assembly for wear or damage. Refer to Figure 7-31 for dimensions.
NOTE: Some shafts were manufactured as two-piece assemblies. Do not attempt to separate the shaft assembly.
2. Inspect and clean the pitot tube holes in the shaft. Use a standard reamer (straight flute, 0.3770 in. diameter).
Remove pipe plugs in the shaft for cleaning and reinstall using Loctite® Primer N and #242.

• Rear (notched) wear sleeve (4) is NOT
interchangeable with front wear sleeve (39).
The inside diameter of the rear wear sleeve is
color coded blue.
• Note the direction of the lead pattern on the
sleeve. The wear sleeve must be installed
with the pattern leading in the correct
direction in order to prevent leakage from
occurring.
• Use extreme care when handling the wear
sleeve. The slightest nicks or scratches may
cause leakage.
19. Some fan clutches were assembled with an external snap ring that is used as a spacer between the bearing
and the oil seal. Newer models were assembled using a notched spacer. If an external snap ring was used,
place snap ring (12) on top of the bearing (oil seal side). If a notched spacer was used, the spacer will be
installed in a later step. Proceed to the next step.

Do not lubricate the seal. The seal is made of
teflon and must be installed dry.

an oil-soluble grease and install it in the pulley

pulley until the retainer rests on the pulley.
Use caution when lowering. Damage to the
sleeve bearings may result if the shaft is cocked
during installation.
38. Turn the assembly over on the bench. Install remaining bolts (38) and lockwashers (37). Tighten each bolt to
49 - 58 N•m (36 - 43 ft lbs).
1. The fan clutch should be fully locked up with 275 kPa (40 psi) oil pressure supplied at the control pressure
port.
2. Operate the fan clutch with 82° C (180° F) oil supplied to the “oil in” port for 2 hours. Manually engage and
disengage the clutch during the test to operate seals in both modes. Restrict the fan mounting hub rotation
while the clutch is disengaged, but ensure that the fan mounting hub is allowed to rotate freely while the clutch
is engaged.
The fan clutch rotation causes the pitot tubes to pump lubricating oil from inside the fan clutch,
maintaining low internal oil pressure. If lubricating oil is supplied to the fan clutch before it is rotating in
the proper direction, internal pressures will become excessive, causing the oil seals to leak.
