MAINTENANCE MANUAL
14. Lock or engaged the main differential Cage
using the manual engaging methoid.
A. Install the manual engaging capscrew into
the threaded hole in the center of the cylin-
der. FIGURE 11.6.
CAUTION
WHEN YOU TURN THE CAPSCREW IN
STEP D AND YOU FEEL A HIGH RESIS-
TANCE, STOP TURNING THE CAPSCREW.
A HIGH RESISTANCE AGAINST THE CAP-
SCREW INDICATES THAT THE SPLINES
OF THE SHIFT COLLAR AND DIFFEREN-
TIAL CASE ARE NOT ALIGNED. DAMAGE
TO THE THREADS OF THE CYLINDER AND
CAPSCREW WILL RESULT.
B. Turn the capscrew to the right until the head
is approximately 0.25- to 0.50-inch (6.4 to
12.7 mm) from the cylinder. The capscrew is
now in the service position and the shift col-
lar is locked or engaged. Figure 11.8. When
turning the capscrew you will feel a small
amount of resistance. This is normal.
• Ifyoufeelahighresistancebeforeachieving
the 0.25- to 0.50-inch distance between the
capscrew head and cylinder, stop turning the
capscrew and continue with Step C, step D
and step E.
C. Rotate de driveline or IAD only a small portion
of rotation.
D. Tighten the manual engaging capscrew to
right. if you feel a high resistance,stop turn-
ing the capscrew.
E. Repeat the step C and step D until you feel
a small resistance in the capscrew. Continue
with step B. Continue from step 15.
15. Remove the remaining axle shaft(s) as nec-
essary from the axle(s) that will remain on
the road when the vehicle is transported.
16. Install a cover over the open end of each hub
where an axle shaft was removed. This will
prevent dirt from entering the bearing cavity
and minimize loss of lubricant.
NOTE:
If an air supply will be used for the brake
system of the transported vehicle, continue
with Steps 17 and 18. Otherwise continue
with Step 19.
17. Connect an auxiliary air supply to the brake
system of the vehicle that is being transport-
ed. Before moving the vehicle, charge the
brake system with the correct amount of air
pressure to operate the brakes. Refer to the
instructions supplied by the manufacturer
ofthevehicleforproceduresandspecica-
tions. If an auxiliary air supply is not used,
continue with Ste19.
18. When the correct amount of air pressure is in
the brake system, release the parking brakes
of the vehicle that is being transported. The
step 19 is not required.
19. If there are spring or parking brakes on the
axle that will remain on the road when the
vehicle is transported, and they cannot be
released by air pressure, manually compress
and lock each spring so that the brakes are
released. See the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.
After Towing or Drive-Away
1. If an auxiliary air supply was used, apply the
vehicle parking brakes using the switch in-
side the cab of the vehicle. If an auxiliary air
supply was not used, begin with Step 2.
2. Apply the vehicle spring or parking brakes
by manually releasing each spring that was
compressed before transporting started. See
the manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Disconnect the auxiliary air supply, if used,
from the brake system of the vehicle that
was transported. Connect the vehicle’s air
supply to the brake system.
4. Remove the covers from the hubs.
