-Your Legacy Pro Series carrier bearing is preset up with a baseline preload and tightened with a “SET UP” nut
-Get your carrier bearing set up with your mid-ship drive shaft and main drive shaft.

****MAKE SURE YOUR BRACKETS ARE AT LEAST .500” BACK FROM HOUSING FACE SO SEAL SURFACE ISN’T DISTORTED****
-Disassemble yokes, shaft, bearings and seals from housing.
-TIG weld is recommended on the housing, Mig will work, just take your time...TIG or MIG
-Reinstall bearing same way it was taken apart……don’t put seals in yet!!
