1. Remove the ring gear bolts and then the ring gear.
It may need to be tapped o with a brass mallet. Mark it so
that it can be re-installed in the same rotaonal posion as when
removed. Also mark the cap and case so that they can be re-as-
sembled together in the same posion.
2. Remove the case cap. It may be pressed into posi-
on; carefully pry it up if necessary.
3. Remove the pinion sha(s), spider gears, side gears,
all washers, and the pinion sha block.
4. Mark the side gear in the top of the case with a tag
or put it in a separate locaon so that it can be idened later. It
will be placed in the boom of the case during assembly.

b) Moderately used side gear (Figure 4). Note
