Disassembly and assembly of the rear axle

Before dismantling, remove the pipeline with the brake system tee from the axle beam, install the axle on the repair stand and drain the oil from the crankcase. After removing the brake drums, disconnect the rear cable from the shoe drive levers and remove the cable. Loosen the nuts securing the brake shield, using an impact puller 67.7801.9516 remove the axle shafts complete with oil deflector, axle bearing mounting plate, bearing and locking ring. Then remove the brake shield and O-ring. If replacement is necessary, remove the oil seal from the axle beam flange. Then perform the same operations on the other end of the beam, then remove the reducer.

Assembly is carried out in the reverse order of disassembly. At the same time, cover the axle shaft bearing oil seal with Litol-24 grease before installation, and the threads of the gear mounting bolts with sealant, having previously degreased them and the threaded holes in the rear axle beam. When installing the axle shaft seal in the beam flange, use mandrel A.70157, the punch of which has an outer diameter of 44 mm, and the seat belt for the seal is 29.4 mm. Lubricate with graphite grease or Litol-24 grease the landing belt of the axle shaft flange under the brake drum and the surface of the axle shaft flange in contact with the drum in order to facilitate the removal of the drum during subsequent disassembly. Install the brake drum after installing the rear axle on the vehicle and attaching the cable ends to the parking brake levers.
