91 Wagoneer Wheel bearing replacement problems
 

I am having problems removing part of my front driver's side hub assembly on
my '91 Waggy. It's a Dana 44 6 lug without manual locking hubs.



Here is a pic of the dealer schematic:



http://www.brintsoft.com/dave/dealerSchematic.jpg



I removed the circlip / snap-ring.

Then I removed a 1" thick splined spacer ( looks like a cog as it splines
onto the axle shaft and also the axle)

Then I removed a 1" thick sleeve (doesn't seem to be shown on schematic).



http://www.brintsoft.com/dave/DSCN1920.JPG

Behind that is a piece of metal through which the axle shaft passes. It has
4 notches on the circumference which are chewed up.

http://www.brintsoft.com/dave/retainer2.jpg

http://www.brintsoft.com/dave/retainer3.jpg



I'm guessing that it is the outer locknut (item 12 on the schematic) which
is removed with the Dana 44 hub socket ? Am I right ? The notches are
either too chewed up or to small for the hub socket to fit. I guess I'll
have to drive it out with a hammer and punch/chisel.



However it also appears that I am missing a spring (item 14 on the
schematic). I'm not sure where this spring could possibly fit if it existed
as the splined spacer (item 17) was tight against its snap ring. Is the
schematic wrong or am I really missing a spring ?



Thanks for any assistance guys.

Re: 91 Wagoneer Wheel bearing replacement problems
 

That schematic looks to be showing you two different versions of the
hub. One uses a spacer in place of the spring by the looks of it.

Re: 91 Wagoneer Wheel bearing replacement problems
 

There wasn't a spacer there either - that was the strange thing.
I'm pretty confident that is the lock nut - it's on extremely tight, so I'll
have to smack it with an impact driver.

Also there are 2-3 different sizes of nuts that have been used over the
years between jeep, chevy, ford, etc. make sure you have the right sized
socket.
