When used in the 4WD application, the 42RLE’s output shaft is retained to the rear planet with a squared circlip. Similar to most front wheel drive axles, but much more permanent. To enable complete unit disassembly, you must remove the output shaft to gain access to the nut holding the rear planet. With our new T-8200 installed, a slide-hammer (with 3/4-16 thread pitch) will make quick work of this seemingly impossible task!
We mill the T-8200 from steel and include a strong, easily replaceable grade 8 cap screw. Be ready for the next one that hits your bench!
