Rear Axle Seal And Bearing Replacement 04 Ford Ranger With 7.5" Ring Gear

Описание: In this video I'll take you along as I replace the rear axle bearings and seals on my 04 Ford Ranger with a 7.5" ring gear. The process is pretty simple but requires a little labor. First the vehicle needs to be lifted in the rear end with the vehicle in neutral. (How to properly lift and support your vehicle not shown or explained in video. IT IS ABSOLUTELY IMPERATIVE THAT YOU LIFT AND SUPPORT YOUR VEHICLE CORRECTLY TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. THIS VIDEO IS NOT A GOOD EXAMPLE OF HOW TO DO THAT. You will need to obtain that information elsewhere.) Once the vehicle is lifted remove the wheels and the brake drums. Then remove the pumpkin cover on the differential. Once the cover is removed from the differential you can then remove the C clips from either axle. Once the C clip is removed the axle can be slid out. Once axle is out remove the old seal and bearing. Install new seal and bearing and reverse procedure. Torque down all fasteners to specification. (You will need a repair manual for specifications and to verify procedures. )

Note: Removal and installation of wheels not shown in video. When installing wheels after repair has been made be sure the lug nuts are torqued to specification.

As noted in the video, fill the rear end with gear oil after the wheels have been installed and vehicle is off jack stands. Be sure the vehicle is on a level surface for an accurate level check.

As for the Scotch Brite scouring pads.. Scotch Brite is in no way affiliated with Barbour's Auto Help and Barbour's Auto Help has not received any money from Scotch Brite to promote their product. I just think it woks well. Also, Walmart is also not affiliated with Barbour's Auto Help. NOTE: I would advise softening them up a bit before using them. Maybe use one that has been used on dishes for a while. Here is a link to what I'm referring to.

Warning: Use only light pressure when using the scouring pads to clean the axle. DO NOT GOUGE THE MATING SURFACE OF THE AXLE. I have had success using scouring pads on sealing surfaces with no problems. However, I make no guarantees that you will. Use this technique at your own risk.
