Transmission disassembly

[s'ko]

EA82 5 speed.

Need some help in getting the tranny apart.

I removed all of the bolts and I cannot remove the rear hosing.

The case is partially split but it’s getting hung up on the DR lever

HELP.

There are small roll pins that you need to punch out to remove the DR shaft.

 

Also, down under all the 4wd stuff, is a 10mm bolt that holds the reverse lockout tab onto the shifter rod. Gotta get at that little bolt(swivel) that way you can rotate the shifter rod counterclockwise to disengage the forks.

 

Also, to split the case, you have to remove the bolts at the end of the pinion shaft. There are 4 of them going through the big bearing, just need to remove the 2 on the right half of the case to split them.

Thanks for the help.

 

Ok here are some tips.

EA82 D/R 5 Speed

1) remove all bolts that hold the two sides of the case together.

2) remove the 14 mm bolts in the back of the tranny case and the transfer case.

3) punch out the D/R lever

4) punch out the pin holding the shifting assembly

5) remove the reverse switch

6) remove the shifting fork and the 3 12mm bolts holding the plate on behind the fork.

6) take a rubber mallet and smack the back case and separate it from the front case. You will see 4 10mm bolts, two on each side. Remove two of the bolts on the passenger side. Tap the sides of the front and the case will start to split. Lay the tranny onto the driver side and take the passenger side off.

Here comes the fun part.

7) Remove the other 10mm bolts

8) take the smaller gear set and lift it up. The rear will be held on by the reverse shifting fork. I had to pull it pretty hard to get it to come out.

The main gear set w/the pinion gear lifts off a little easier.

 

EA82 FT4WD S/R

1) remove all bolts that hold the two sides of the case together.

2) remove the 14 mm bolts in the back of the tranny case and the transfer case.

3) remove the reverse switch, unbolt the diaphram for the locking center diff.

4) punch out the pin holding the shifting assembly

5) remove the 14mm bolts at the very back of the transmission

6) take a rubber mallet and smack the back part of the transmission. It will start to seperate from the transfer housing. This portion holds the center diff.

7) smack the transfer case housing and it from separate the front case. You will see 4 10mm bolts two on each side. Remove two of the bolts on the passenger side. Tap the sides of the front and the case will start to split. Lay the tranny onto the driver side and take the passenger side off.

8) Remove the other 10mm bolts

9) lift the smaller gear set from the front

10) with the center diff removed it will be easier to remove the main gear set.
