7) Remove the tone wheel (Fig.6). FIG: 6 8) Remove the lower retaining ring (Fig.7). FIG: 7 9) Remove the 10mm bolts holding the two case halves together.
10) Gently pry the two halves apart using a screwdriver. There are two locations in the case designed for use as pry points. Only use these two locations. They are located on the sides of the case half (Fig.9). FIG: 9 11) Lift the rear case half and pump off of the front case half (Fig.10).
12) Remove the spring from the mode fork shaft (Fig.11). FIG: 11 13) Remove the retaining ring holding the front output sprocket in place (Fig.12).
14) Lift the mainshaft assembly and front output sprocket out of the case as an assembly (Fig.13). FIG: 13 15) The synchro hub ring may stay in the case with the mode fork as the mainshaft is removed. If this happens, be sure to notice the top and bottom orientation of the ring. Remove the mode fork and ring. It is possible to reinstall this ring incorrectly causing malfunction (Fig.14, 14A).
16) Remove the retaining ring holding the main drive sprocket assembly in place. Remove the sprocket assembly from the shaft (Fig.15). FIG: 15 17) Inspect the inside of the main drive sprocket for the presence of needle bearings. If the bearings are present, remove them with a press. The deletion of these bearings is per OEM design. After 1995, the mfg. (New Venture Gear) adopted this design and it performs fine (Fig.16,17).
18) Install the main sprocket assembly onto the new output shaft. Retain this assembly with the new retaining ring supplied in the kit (Fig.19).

It may be necessary to slightly lift the lower range fork with you finger as you lower the mainshaft/fork assembly into place. Do not force the mainshaft assembly into place (Fig.20).
20) Place the chain around the front output sprocket and loop it around the main drive sprocket. You will have to slightly lift the mainshaft sprocket assembly to provide enough slack to get the front sprocket into place (Fig.21). FIG: 21 21) Install the retaining ring onto the front output shaft (Fig.22).
22) Install the mode fork spring. Verify the magnet is in place (Fig.23,24). FIG: 23 FIG: 24 23) Verify the O-ring is in place within the pump (Fig.25).
