HUB AND BEARING ASSEMBLY
The Unit III Front Hub and Bearing (Fig. 1) is used
on all Front Wheel Drive Applications. All hub and bearing assemblies mount to the steer-
ing knuckle the same way, but very by the wheel size
on the vehicle. Vehicles equipped with 14 inch wheels
have a 4 inch wheel mounting stud pattern. Vehicles
equipped with 15 inch wheels hav e a 4 1/2 inch wheel
mounting stud pattern. If a hub and bearing assembly
needs to be replaced, be sure that the replacement
assembly has the same size wheel mounting stud
pattern as the original part.
This unit is serviced only as a complete assembly
(Fig. 1). It is mounted to the steering knuckle by four
mounting bolts that are removed from the rear of the
steering knuckle (Fig. 2).
REMOVAL
Replacement of the front (drive) hub and bearing
assembly can be done without having to remove the
steering knuckle from the vehicle. (1) Remove cotter pin, hub nut lock, and spring
washer (Fig. 3). (2) Loosen hub nut while the vehicle is on the floor
with the brakes applied (Fig. 4). The hub and drive-
shaft are splined together through the knuckle
(bearing assembly) and retained by the hub nut. (3) Raise vehicle, see Hoisting Recommendations in
Group 0 of this service manual. (4) Remove the hub nut and the washer from the
stub axle (Fig. 3). (5) Remove the wheel lug nuts, and tire and wheel
assembly from the vehicle.

CLUTCH DISC REPLACEMENT
REMOVAL
(1) Remove transaxle. See Group 21, Manual Tran-
saxle, for procedure. (2) Mark clutch cover and flywheel, to maintain
their same relative positions when installing clutch
assembly (Fig. 4). (3) Insert Clutch Disc Aligning Tool C-4676
through the clutch disc hub to prevent the clutch disc
from falling and damaging the facings (Fig. 5). (4) Loosen clutch cover attaching bolts, one or two
turns at a time, in a crisscross pattern, to release
spring pressure evenly and avoid cover damage.
CAUTION: Do not touch the clutch disc facing with
oily or dirty hands. Oil or dirt transferred from your
hands onto the clutch disc facing may cause clutch
chatter.
(5) Remove the clutch pressure plate and cover as-
sembly and disc from flywheel. Handle carefully to
avoid contaminating the friction surfaces.
INSPECTION
(1) Inspect for oil leakage through engine rear
main bearing oil seal and transaxle input shaft seal.
If leakage is noted, it should be corrected at this
time. (2) The friction faces of the flywheel and pressure
plate should not have excessive discoloration, burned
areas, small cracks, deep grooves, or ridges. Replace
parts as required.
CAUTION: Do not polish flywheel to a ``mirror like''
surface.

Fig. 5 Clutch Disc Aligning Tool
Ä MANUAL TRANSAXLE CLUTCH 6 - 5

(3) Clean the flywheel face with medium sandpa-
per (80-160 grade), then wipe the surface with min-
eral spirits. If the surface is severely scored, heat
checked, or warped, replace the flywheel.
CAUTION: Do not flat-machine the flywheel face.
The surface profile is tapered.
(4) The heavy side of the flywheel is indicated by a
daub of white paint near the outside diameter. To
minimize the effects of flywheel unbalance, perform
the following installation procedure: (a) Loose assemble the flywheel to the crank-
shaft. Use new flywheel attaching bolts which have
sealant on the threads. If new bolts are not avail-
able, apply Loctite sealant to the threads of the
original bolts. This sealant is required to prevent
engine oil leakage. (b) Rotate the flywheel and crankshaft until the
daub of white paint (heavy side) is at the 12 o'clock
position. (c) Torque flywheel attaching bolts to 95 N Im(70
ft. lbs.). Use a crisscross pattern when tightening
bolts.
(5) The disc assembly should be handled without
touching the facings. Replace disc if the facings show
evidence of grease or oil soakage, or wear to within
less than .38 mm (.015 inch) of the rivet heads. The
splines on the disc hub and transaxle input shaft
should be a snug fit without signs of excessive wear.
Metallic portions of disc assembly should be dry and
clean, and not been discolored from excessive heat.
Each of the arched springs between the facings
should not be broken and all rivets should be tight. (6) Wipe the friction surface of the pressure plate
with mineral spirits. (7) Using a straight edge, check clutch cover (pres-
sure plate) for flatness. The clutch cover (pressure
plate) friction area should be slightly concave, with
the inner diameter 0.02 mm to 0.1 mm (.0008 in. to
.0039 in.) below the outer diameter. It should also be
free from discoloration, burned areas, cracks,
grooves, or ridges. (8) Using a surface plate, test cover for flatness.
All sections around attaching bolt holes should be in
contact with surface plate within .015 inch. (9) The cover should be a snug fit on flywheel dow-
els. If the clutch assembly does not meet these re-
quirements, it should be replaced.
INSTALLATION
(1) Mount clutch assembly on flywheel,being care-
ful to properly align dowels and the alignment marks
made before removal. The flywheel side of the clutch
disc is marked for proper installation. If new clutch
or flywheel is installed, align cover balance spot as
close as possible to flywheel balance orange spot. Ap-
ply pressure to the alignment tool. Center the tip of the tool into the crankshaft and the sliding cone into
the clutch fingers. Tighten the clutch attaching bolts
sufficiently to hold the disc in position. (2) To avoid distortion of the clutch cover, bolts
should be tightened a few turns at a time, in a criss-
cross pattern, until they are all seated. Tighten bolts
to 28 N Im (250 in. lbs.) following a crisscross pattern
sequence. Remove clutch disc alignment tool. (3) Install transaxle. See group 21, Manual Tran-
saxle, for procedures.
RELEASE BEARING AND FORK
Remove the transaxle from the vehicle. See group
21 for removal and installation procedures.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
(1) Remove clutch release shaft E-clip.
(2) Remove the clutch release shaft and then slide
the fork and bearing assembly off the bearing pilot. (3) Remove the fork from the bearing thrust plate.
(4) Examine the condition of the bearing. It is pre-
lubricated and sealed and should not be im-
mersed in oil or solvent. (5) The bearing should turn smoothly when held in
the hand under a light thrust load. A light drag
caused by the lubricant fill is normal. If the bearing
is noisy, rough, or dry, replace the complete bearing
assembly with a new bearing. (6) The bearing has a plastic sleeve pre-lubricated
at assembly. Wipe out the old grease. Refill the
sleeve cavities and coat the inner surface with mul-
tipurpose grease. If the liner is cracked or worn, re-
place the bearing assembly. (7) Check the condition of the spring clips. If the
clips are broken or distorted, replace the bearing as-
sembly. (8) Before assembling the fork, lubricate the
rounded thrust pads and the spring clip cavities with
multipurpose grease. (9) Assemble the fork to the bearing by sliding the
thrust pads under the spring clips. Be careful to
avoid distorting the spring clips. These clips prevent
the bearing thrust plate from rotating with the bear-
ing. (10) Slide the bearing and fork assembly onto the
input shaft bearing retainer. (11) Position the release shaft bushings in the
housing and install the release shaft. A small
amount of bearing grease between the release shaft
bushing and the shaft is beneficial but not required.
Install the retainer clip in the shaft groove near the
large bushing. (12) Install the release lever and retaining clip on
the outer end of the release shaft.
CLEANING PRECAUTIONS
Condensation from steam vapors tend to accumu-
late on the internal clutch mechanism when the ve-

scuffing, scoring or scratches. Usually a few strokes
will clean up a bore and maintain the required limits.(2) Deglazing of the cylinder walls may be done
using a cylinder surfacing hone, Tool C-3501, equipped
with 280 grit stones (C-3501-3810) if the cylinder bore
is straight and round. 20-60 strokes depending on the
bore condition will be sufficient to provide a satisfac-
tory surface. Inspect cylinder walls after each 20
strokes. Using a light honing oil available from major
oil distributors. Do not use engine or transmission
oil, mineral spirits or kerosene. (3) Honing should be done by moving the hone up
and down fast enough to get a cross-hatch pattern.
When hone marks intersectat 50-60 degrees, the
cross hatch angle is most satisfactory for proper seat-
ing of rings (Fig. 1).
(4) A controlled hone motor speed between 200-300
RPM is necessary to obtain the proper cross-hatch
angle. The number of up and down strokes per minute
can be regulated to get the desired 50-60 degree angle.
Faster up and down strokes increase the cross-hatch
angle. (5) After honing, it is necessary that the block be
cleaned again to remove all traces of abrasive.
CAUTION: Be sure all abrasive are removed from
engine parts after honing. It is recommended that a
solution of soap and hot water be used with a brush
and the parts then thoroughly dried. The bore can be
considered clean when it can be wiped clean with a
white cloth and cloth remains clean. Oil the bores
after cleaning to prevent rusting.
MEASURING MAIN BEARING CLEARANCE AND
CONNECTING ROD BEARING CLEARANCE
PLASTIGAGE METHOD
Engine crankshaft bearing clearances can be deter-
mined by use of Plastigage or equivalent. The follow-
ing is the recommended procedure for the use of
Plastigage: (1) Remove oil film from surface to be checked.
Plastigage is soluble in oil. (2) The total clearance of the main bearingscan
only be determined by removing the weight of the
crankshaft. This can be accomplished by either of
two methods: PREFERRED METHOD Ð Shimming the bear-
ings adjacent to the bearing to be checked in order to
remove the clearance between upper bearing shell
and the crankshaft. This can be accomplished by
placing a minimum of 0.254mm (.010 inch) shim (e.
g. cardboard, matchbook cover, etc.) between the
bearing shell and the bearing cap on the adjacent
bearings and snugging bolts to 14-20 N Im (10-15
ft.lb.)
