Use special tool 6597 and handle C-4171 and C-4171-2 to press rear output shaft bearing cup rearward (Fig. 130).
NOTE: Using a pin punch, drive out guide bracket pivot shaft.
At this point the Centerline of the transaxle has been removed. If the condition for disassembly did not pertain to the differential, it's disassembly may not be required. Inspect the rear transfer shaft area and the transfer shaft seal area for contamination. If evidence of contamination is present, replace the rear transfer shaft bearing and/or the transfer shaft seal.
To disassemble the input clutch assembly, refer to Input Clutches-Recondition.
