Inspection and Repair (Transfer Case Assembly): Bearing
Check the profile of the needle, roller, ball, and thrust bearings. Wash the bearings with clean detergent completely, and dry with air.
NOTE:
If the bearing is rotated excessively, the rollers may be damaged. So, rotate the bearing slowly with your hand. Apply grease to the bearing, and check the smoothness of the bearing while slowly rotating the race with your hand.
