BEARING INSTALLATION TOOLS - MANUAL TRANSMISSION INTERMEDIATE AND OUTPUT SHAFT
There are several different suppliers for the tapered roller bearings used in Hyundai manual transmissions. All critical specifications from manufacturer to manufacturer remain consistent, however, there are several differences in bearing cage designs. These differences can result in difficulty in properly installing the bearings on the intermediate and output shafts.
If the Bearing Installer Tool, SST 09432-21600, contacts the bearing cage during installation, it can damage the bearing and cause noisy operation and premature bearing failure. To prevent problems, use the Valve Stem Oil Seal Installer, SST 09222-21100 as a bearing installer. This tool will contact the inner race only on these tapered roller bearings and avoid possible damage to the rollers and cage.
All other reassembly procedures remain the same as outlined in your Excel Shop Manual.
