Question 1

What tools are required to replace the drive pinion bearings on a 10.5-inch axle on GMC Yukon?

Accepted Answer

The tool requirements for drive pinion bearings replacement on a 10.5-inch axle include j 22761 (Differential Side Bearing Installer), j 8614-01 (Flange and Pulley Holding Tool), j 37624 (Pinion Bearing Installer), j 24433 (Pinion Cone and Side Bearing Installer), j 22912-b (Split Plate Bearing Puller), j 44414 (Rear Axle Pinion Oil Seal Installer), j 8608 (Rear Pinion Bearing Installer), and j 8092 (Universal Driver Handle - 3/4 in - 10). The work starts by stretching the vehicle upward and unfastening the Differential assembly. First remove the pinion gear bearing retainer before you take out the pinion yoke and oil seal then extract the outer Pinion Bearing and pinion and collapsible spacer. The j 22912-b hydraulic press together with the j 22912-b will extract the inner Pinion Bearing from the pinion through its slots by inserting a brass drift for equal bearing cup release. To remove and replace the pinion gear pilot bearing use hammer and brass drifts with a similar process applied to both outer and inner Pinion Bearing cups. Begin Pinion Bearing installation with the j 22761 to place the pinion gear pilot bearing before applying the j 37624 with j 8092 for the inner Pinion Bearing cup and utilizing j 8608 with j 8092 for the outer Pinion Bearing cup. Start by pressing the bearing on until the cone seats on the pinion then employ the j 24433 along with a hydraulic press to install the inner Pinion Bearing which must be followed by adding the new collapsible spacer and lubricating all pinion bearings. The installation of the outer Pinion Bearing into the retainer begins before using the j 44414 to position the new pinion oil seal. First reposition the pinion inside the bearing retainer before you apply sealant to the splines of the pinion yoke and restore marks from the removal process before installing the pinion yoke. Use a soft-faced hammer to strike the yoke until several threads emerge before you install the washer together with the new pinion nut. Tighten the pinion yoke under j 8614-01 while rotating the pinion between rotations until the end play disappears fully. Replace the j 8614-01 tool with either the original bearing shim or a 0.41 mm shim in case the original shim is not accessible. Fasten the pinion gear bearing retainer onto the axle housing and proceed to tighten its retainer bolts to 88 n.m (65 lb ft). The rotating torque measurement of the pinion should fall within acceptable values for new or used bearings; adjust accordingly if needed. After completing the above steps the service professional should reinstall the Differential assembly and determine the necessary selective shim thickness for the drive pinion and also perform backlash adjustment before filling the axle with lubricant and lowering the vehicle back down.

Question 2

What tools are required to replace the drive pinion bearings on a 10.5-inch axle on GMC Sierra 1500?

Accepted Answer

A 10.5-inch axle drive Pinion Bearing replacement requires use of j 22761 (Differential Side Bearing Installer) alongside j 8614-01 (Flange and Pulley Holding Tool) and j 37624 (Pinion Bearing Installer) and j 24433 (Pinion Cone and Side Bearing Installer) and j 22912-b (Split Plate Bearing Puller) and j 44414 (Rear Axle Pinion Oil Seal Installer) and j 8608 (Rear Pinion Bearing Installer) and j 8092 (Universal Driver Handle - 3/4 in - 10). Start with lifting the vehicle and proceeding to remove the Differential assembly. Remove the pinion gear bearing retainer before proceeding to remove the pinion yoke along with its oil seal before completing the process by taking out the outer Pinion Bearing, pinion, and collapsible spacer. The j 22912-b and hydraulic press will extract the inner Pinion Bearing from the pinion by using a brass drift inside the slots to maintain equal bearing cup removal. Rephrase this process using a hammer alongside brass drifts for the removal of both the outer and inner Pinion Bearing cups until the pinion gear pilot bearing frees. After folloing the j 22761 to place the pinion gear pilot bearing, the installer should utilize j 37624 and j 8092 for putting the inner Pinion Bearing cup before finishing with j 8608 and j 8092 to set the outer Pinion Bearing cup. Install the inner Pinion Bearing with the j 24433 tool while placing a new breakable spacer in position. After lubricating the pinion bearings apply the retainer to the outer Pinion Bearing. The j 44414 is used to install the new pinion oil seal after which the pinion must be installed into the bearing retainer with sealant applied to the pinion yoke splines before final installation. Use the j 8614-01 to tighten the pinion nut until the end play reaches its minimum point while holding it. For the Pinion Bearing we should install either the original shim or a 0.41 mm replacement shim instead of j 8614-01. Put the pinion gear bearing retainer to the axle housing then bolt it down to 88 n.m (65 lb ft) torque setting. Check the pinion rotation torque against its indicated specifications. The pinion nut should be tightened to its correct torque measurement before rotating the pinion multiple times for proper bearing seating. You must reinstall the Differential assembly then adjust the Differential side bearing preload before determining the drive pinion selective shim thickness and adjusting the backlash and filling the axle with lubricant and finally lowering the vehicle.

Question 3

What tools are required to replace the drive pinion bearings on an 8.6 inch axle on GMC Canyon?

Accepted Answer

To replace the drive pinion bearings on an 8.6 inch axle, the following tools are required: j 8092 driver handle (J 8092), j 8608 rear Pinion Bearing race installer (J 8608), j 8611-01 rear Pinion Bearing race installer (J 8611-01), j 8614-01 flange and pulley holding tool (J 8614-01), j 22388 rear axle pinion oil seal installer (J 22388), j 22912-b split plate bearing puller (J 22912-B), j 24433 pinion cone and side bearing installer (J 24433), and j 45871 Pinion Bearing remover (J 45871), j 45900 Pinion Bearing cup installer (J 45900). The first step involves lifting the vehicle then taking out both the Differential assembly followed by splitting the drive pinion from the axle. The j 45871 must be inserted first around the Pinion Bearing before placing the inverted j 22912-b around the j 45871. Both tools can be used to press off the bearing. Insert a hammer and brass drift to remove the shim along with both outer and inner Pinion Bearing cups from the axle housing. Lay out the Pinion Bearing cups where the j 8611-01 joins the j 8092 to secure the outer cup and j 45900 linked to the j 8092 to install the inner cup. Assess the required shim size for the pinion then position it in between the inner Pinion Bearing and the gear shoulder. The j 24433 tool helps install the inner Pinion Bearing while pressing it until the cone seats properly on the pinion shim. Use a newly installed collapsible spacer while you apply lubrication to the pinion bearings before placing the outer bearing inside the axle housing. Installation of the new pinion oil seal happens using j 22388 while simultaneously inserting the pinion into its housing by applying sealant to the yoke splines with pre-made location marks guiding the yoke installation. To install the pinion yoke onto the pinion shaft you should use a soft-faced hammer to tap it into place before adding the washer and new pinion nut. Tighten the pinion nut by using the j 8614-01 tool on the pinion yoke until the pinion end play reaches its limit while rotatable tightening enables the bearings to properly seat. Aviation test the pinion torque during rotation and adjust it to 1.0-2.3 n.m (10-20 lb in) for used bearings or 1.7-3.4 n.m (15-30 lb in) for new bearings before continuing. Use the j 8614-01 on the pinion yoke while tightening the pinion nut until the pinion end play is just taken up. After rotating the pinion multiple times to allow the bearings to seat properly, install the Differential assembly followed by lubricant addition before lowering the vehicle.
