  Q: What tools are required to service and repair the Balance Shaft Bearing Set on GMC Savana 1500?

  A: A technician needs Bushing/Bearing Remover (J 26941) and Balance Shaft Service Kit (J 38834) to fix the balance shaft bearing. First remove the balance shaft keeping safety glasses on at all times. Push the J 26941 legs behind the balance shaft bottom bearing then put the short threaded end of J 38834-1 through the balance shaft opening on the engine block front side. Put the J 38834-1 into the balance shaft bore on the J 26941 unit and thread together these two pieces. Handle and turn the nut clockwise with a wrench to take the balance shaft rear bearing out of the engine block using the J 38834, J 38834 bearing, washer, and nut attached to the J 38834-1. Discard the old bearing. Use the J 38834 to place the new balance shaft rear bearing where you start with J 38834-3 on its short threaded end of J 38834-1 then add the nut, washer, and bearing on the long threaded end. Put the J 38834-2 smaller end first into the balance shaft front bearing bore opening of the engine block. Install the balance shaft rear bearing by putting J 38834-1 parts in order and tightening it with a wrench after adding engine oil. Tighten the J 38834 nut into place by rotating it while pressing the bearing deeply into its bore. Afterwards remove the J 38834-1 part and place the balance shaft back in position.
