Long Stub Shaft Seal Replacement
NOTE: If it has been diagnosed that the long stub shaft seal is leaking, the following procedure can be used to replace failed seal. This procedure will
allow the replacement of the seals without having to set backlash and measure differential bearing turning torque.
CAUTION: The differential bearings and the differential adjusters must be reused in order to use this procedure. If any of the items listed above require
replacement, this procedure cannot be used. Refer to Differential Recondition.
1. Remove transaxle from vehicle.
2. Remove long stub shaft from transaxle.
To replace the long stub shaft bearing, install stub shaft in soft-jawed vise. Remove the stub shaft bearing C-clip. Install bearing splitter onto the
shaft. Install Special Tool # P-334, or equivalent under the bearing. Using a shop press, remove the bearing from the stub shaft.
