8 1/4 Trac-loky differential

The Trac-loky differential components are illustrated in (Fig. 43). Refer to this illustration during repair service.

DISASSEMBLY

(1) Clamp Side Gear Holding Tool 8138 in a vise.

(2) Position the differential case on Side Gear Holding Tool 8138 (Fig. 44).

(3) Remove ring gear, if necessary. Ring gear removal is necessary only if the ring gear is to be replaced. The Trac-loky differential can be serviced with the ring gear installed.

(4) Remove the pinion gear mate shaft lock screw (Fig. 45).

ASSEMBLY

NOTE: The clutch discs are replaceable as complete sets only. If one clutch disc pack is damaged, both packs must be replaced.

Lubricate each component with gear lubricant before assembly.

(1) Assemble the clutch discs into packs and secure disc packs with retaining clips (Fig. 53).

(2) Position assembled clutch disc packs on the side gear hubs.

(3) Install clutch pack and side gear in the ring gear side of the differential case (Fig. 54). Be sure clutch pack retaining clips remain in position and are seated in the case pockets.

(4) Position the differential case on Side Gear Holding Tool 8138.

(5) Install lubricated Step Plate 8140-2 in lower side gear (Fig. 55).

(6) Install the upper side gear and clutch disc pack (Fig. 55).

(7) Hold assembly in position. Insert Threaded Adapter 8140-1 into top side gear.

(8) Insert Forcing Screw 6960-4.

(9) Tighten forcing screw tool to slightly compress clutch discs.

(10) Place pinion gears in position in side gears and verify that the pinion mate shaft holes are aligned.
