Spindle Inspection
13. Inspect the sealing surfaces of the front wheel spindle for severely corroded, pitted, worn or galled sealing surfaces. Replace front wheel spindle if
damaged.
14. Inspect the outer shaft of the axle shaft assembly for corroded, pitted, worn or galled surfaces in the inner oil seal or needle bearing areas. If
damaged, replace the outer shaft. Repair axle shaft U-joint.
INSTALLATION
1. Clean all dirt and grease from the bearing bore of the front wheel spindle. Bearing bores must be free from nicks and burrs.
NOTE: Replacement spindle bearings are shipped with a corrosion-preventive gel. This is not a lubricant. The bearing must be cleaned and
replaced with the specified lubricant.
Spindle Bearing Installation
2. Install a new needle bearing with writing facing outward in the bore of the front wheel spindle with Spindle Bearing Replacer T80T-4000-R on the
Dana 50, or T80T-4000-S for the Dana 44 and Driver Handle T80T-4000-W. Lubricate the bearing with high temperature 4x4 Front Axle and
Wheel Bearing Grease E8TZ-19590-A (ESA-M1C198-A) or equivalent.
3. Install a new integral spacer needle bearing seal. Pack bearing and spindle hub seal with grease. Install seal with Seal Replacer T80T-4000-T and
Driver Handle T80T-4000-W.
Axle Diaphragm Seal
4. Install the Rolling Diaphragm Seal on the axle shaft. The lip of the seal should face toward the front wheel spindle. Seat the rolling diaphragm seal
by lightly tapping on the inner sheet metal lip of the seal with a straight punch to make sure it is sealed squarely.
