Specifications

D. Spindle Yoke Assembly
1. Pack the roller bearing with the proper lubricant
and press into place in the spindle yoke.
(See fig. 35.)
2. Coat the outside circumference of the outer drive
yoke seal with liquid sealant. Press the seal into
place in the spindle yoke. (See fig. 36).
3. Rest the spindle yoke with its inboard side down.
Install the lower kingpin mounting studs.
E. Lower Kingpin Bracket
Installation
1. Screw the lower kingpin ball stud into the lower
kingpin until it just bottoms. Start the lower
kingpin ball stud jam nut onto the stud.
2. The lower kingpin brackets with integral tie rod
arms are handed. The left arm goes on the left
steerable drive end and will position the tie rod to
the rear when installed on the axle.
Fig. 35
3. Position the proper bracket on the studs or bolts,
whichever is used, projecting through the spindle
yoke. Install the hardened washers and locknuts.
Tighten to the specified torque. (See fig. 25, Page
12.)
F. Spindle Yoke to Suspension
Yoke Assembly
1. With the spindle yoke upright, position the outer
drive yoke horizontally. If the spindle yoke
assembly includes the brakes and wheel hub it
should be attached to and supported by a suitable
jack or hoist. Position the lower kingpin ball (well
lubricated) under the lower kingpin ball socket in
the suspension yoke. (See fig. 21, Page 11.) The
spindle yoke assembly must be tilted slightly out-
ward at the top to allow the ball stud to enter its
socket.
2. Raise the spindle yoke assembly until the ball
stud enters the socket. Align the upper kingpin
mounting holes with the corresponding holes in
the spindle yoke.
3. Install only three bolts. (See fig. 13, Page 7.) The
lower rear bolt is the steering stop bolt. Washers
under the fourth bolts head will limit the maximum
turn angle on the steerable drive end. The bolts
should pass through the camber adjusting shim
or shims. (See fig. 13, Page 7.) The same number
of washers and the same shims should be reus-
ed in a reassembly of parts that have previously
been together. Also refer to Section Ill-D and E.
(Pages 6, 7.) Tighten locknuts to specifications.
G. Brake Assembly Installation
1. Apply a bead of liquid sealant to the spindle flange
or the spindle yoke. (See Service Bulletin 736 407,
Page 22.) Position the spindle on the spindle yoke,
piloting on the roller bearing outer race, aligning
the bolt holes, and orienting the wheel bearing ad-
justing lock-washer keyway to face upwards.
Position the brake assembly on the spindle flange
pilot, aligning the bolt holes, orienting the ac-
tuator or wedge chamber on the horizontal
centerline at the front.
2. Install the bolts from the brake spider side, using
hardened washers and locknuts on the inside of
the spindle yoke. Torque to specification.
