It will take about one full turn to get them loose enough to be able to remove them. just lightly tap and it will turn. Place the adjuster rings and the outer races to the side
Again keep the sides separated
Now with the carrier out, not all carriers will have this but it is a good way to remember how to put this thing back together.
there will be two rows of bolts behind the ring gear. The ones that we need to loosen are the ones on the inner circle. There are 8 -
14mm bolts to remove. To remove these I used an impact, I only use impacts to remove bolts,
Not to put them back in
this is what your shop towel should look like now:
Flip over the carrier over, remove the now what is top piece (ring gear half should be on bottom. (You dont have to remove the side gear, I just did for this tutorial)
here is a close up of the spider gears. To remove them, just lift up on the "X" - center pin, and slide the spiders off. here how the carrier should look now:
here is a picture of the side gears, thrust washers, and center pin.
Now, lets get this locker installed
This is everything that comes in the Lock-Right box:
First you place one side in face down, make sure the valleys line up and the teeth mesh. Then place the gray spring in the blue spring, drop them in the slots that dont have holes going all the way through if you do the silver spring will fall all the way through and place the posts into the slots with the holes.
Then place the spacer in like so:
Place the center pin in like this:
Put the pins and springs in the other side. I used a little bit of grease to hold the springs and pin in were as you have to turn it upside down to put it on. Place the spacer in the same position. I will look something like this:
Now put the other half of the carrier on. make sure that the marks (if there) align and holding the whole thing together, flip it over so that you can see the bolt holes again. Place and hand tighten the bolts down, then torque in a star pattern. FSM does not have any torque requirements. I torqued them down as much as I felt comfortable with.
Place the Outer Bearing Race's on each side and slide it back into the carrier, place the adjustment rings in place and put the bearing caps on. Hand tighten the bolds down so they are snug. Line up your marks on each side. (I then turned the adjuster cap on the ring gear side one full turn and lined up the markings.
MAKE SURE THAT THE THREAD LINE UP!!!
Torque the bearing cap mounts down to
63 ft/lbs. install the adjuster ring retainers and torque to
9 ft/lbs. And then you are ready to reinstall the third
