Installing the Carrier Bearings

With the Air Locker well supported in an arbor press, apply a thin

film of high pressure grease to the ring gear side bearing journal.

Press the tapered roller bearing cone onto the bearing journal of

the differential carrier until the bearing seats firmly against the
shoulder of the Air Locker.

NOTE :

Never re-use any bearings which are damaged or
worn.

Invert the Air Locker and apply a thin film of high pressure grease

to the seal housing side bearing journal.

Press the bearing cone which was supplied with the Air Locker kit

onto the bearing journal, taking care not to damage the o-ring
grooves. (Figure 4.)
