8. Check expansion plug in power divider cover (see photo) to
make sure it is in place and firmly seated. If loose, seat by
tapping with a hammer. Replace plug if necessary.
Assemble lockout shift fork and sliding clutch with clutch
teeth facing the helical-side gear, then install this assembly
in power divider cover.
Note: At this point in reassembly, assemble and install lock-
out (see pages 40-42).
9. Slide input shaft and bearing assembly into power divider
cover from the front side. Engage shaft splines in lock-out
clutch.
Install bearing spacer on input shaft (used only on D340,
380, 380-P, 400-P). Temporarily install input bearing cover
assembly, cap screws and lock washers.
Note: Do not install any shims under bearing cover at this
time. Correct shim pack will be determined after the
power divider is installed on differential carrier (Refer
to "Adjust Input Shaft End Play" page 39).
For Axles with Spring and Thrust Button between input
shaft and output shaft: For preliminary adjustment of input
shaft end play, install a 0.045" (0.024 mm) shim pack un-
der bearing cover (see Service Bulletin Supplement, page
54). Tighten bearing cover cap screws finger-tight. Install
input yoke, flat washer and nut. Temporarily tighten nut
snugly.
10. Axles with Lube Pump: Install and tighten lube pump drive
gear locknut, holding input shaft to secure gear. Torque
