Start By:
- Remove the fixed axle. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Fixed Axle (Front) - Remove and Install".
- Remove the oscillating axle. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Oscillating Axle (Rear) - Remove".
- Install the axle housing in a vertical position on Tooling (B).
Note: Carefully remove the axle housing assembly. Part of the wear gauge pin will remain in the axle housing assembly. The pin will remain in the axle housing assembly. The spring and the piston will remain in the differential housing.
- Fasten Tooling (A) and a hoist to the rim of the axle shaft, as shown. Remove bolts (1) that secure axle housing assembly (2) to the differential housing. Carefully remove the axle housing assembly. The weight of axle housing assembly (2) is
295 kg (650 lb) .Show/hide tableIllustration 2 g00303123 - Remove the bottom half of the axle housing from Tooling (B). Install axle housing assembly (2) on Tooling (B), as shown.

Illustration 4 g00303169 - Install Tooling (D) and suitable lifting slings to planetary carrier assembly (5), as shown.
- Use a hoist to remove the planetary carrier assembly from the axle housing assembly. The weight of the planetary carrier assembly is
80 kg (175 lb) .Show/hide tableIllustration 5 g00303170 Show/hide tableIllustration 6 g00303171 - Use the following steps to disassemble planetary carrier assembly (5):
- Use a hammer and a punch to push spring pin (7) all the way into shaft (6).
- Remove shaft (6), thrust washers , and (8) planetary gear (9) from the carrier.
- Remove bearing (10) from planetary gear (9).
- Use a hammer and a punch to remove spring pin (7) from shaft (6).
- Repeat Steps 7.a through 7.d for the remaining two planetary gears.
- Remove retaining ring (3) from the carrier.

Illustration 11 g00303177 Note: The bearing cone which is located under bearing nut (12) will be removed at the same time as the axle housing.
- Fasten Tooling (F) to the axle housing, as shown. Use the center stud to push the axle shaft and the bearing cone from the axle housing. Make sure that upward pressure is constantly applied.
- Use the hoist to remove the axle housing and the inner bearing cone from the axle shaft. The weight of the axle housing is
105 kg (231 lb) . - Remove the inner bearing cone from the axle housing.

Illustration 12 g00303179 - Remove inner bearing cup (13) from the axle housing.
Note: Planetary ring gear (15) will be destroyed during removal.
- Remove ring gear (15) from the axle housing. Use a torch to cut the ring gear in two places that are directly across from each other. Cut the ring gear at the position of the locating dowels. For an alternate method, make three welds that are equally spaced around the circumference of the ring gear. This will cause the ring gear to shrink.
- Remove dowels (14).
