big66440 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Is it difficult to replace the tail shaft bushing on a 2wd AW4? is there clutch packs and a governor that has to be dealt with in order to replace it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I pulled the tail shaft housing and brought it and a new bushing & seal to a local machine shop. They removed the old one then pressed in a new one for $10 while I waited. There are two possible sizes for 91, the change year; 35mm and 38mm. Be sure you get the right one (mic the yoke shaft), or just buy both as they're only about $2.50/ea. http://www.transmissionpartsusa.com/SearchResults.asp?Search=aw4++seal&Search.x=16&Search.y=8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave92cherokee Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 It's not difficult at all, just have some tranny fluid available as some will leak out when pulling the extension housing off. You can take it to a shop and have them press it in for you or do it yourself in the driveway with a piece of wood and hammer. They make a special tool for pulling them out easier than using a screwdriver. Only thing inside it is a couple of oiling lines to help move the tranny fluid around where it needs to be. Then when putting it back together have some RTV or a can of great stuff gasket maker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
