Disassembly and assembly of the rear axle (VAZ-2105)

Before disassembling, remove the pipeline with the brake system tee from the axle beam, install the axle on a repair stand and drain the oil from the crankcase. After removing the brake drums, disconnect the rear cable from the shoe drive levers and remove the cable. Unscrew the brake shield mounting nuts, use impact puller 67.7801.9516 to remove the half-shafts complete with oil deflector, half-shaft bearing mounting plate, bearing and locking ring. Then remove the brake shield and sealing ring. If replacement is necessary, remove the oil seal from the axle beam flange. Then perform the same operations at the other end of the beam, after which remove the gearbox.

Assembly is performed in the reverse order of disassembly. In this case, before installation, coat the axle bearing oil seal with Litol-24 grease, and the threads of the gearbox mounting bolts with sealant, having previously degreased them and the threaded holes in the rear axle beam. When installing the axle shaft oil seal into the beam flange, use the A.70157 mandrel, the punch of which has an outside diameter of 44 mm, and the seat belt for the oil seal is 29.4 mm. Lubricate the seat belt of the axle shaft flange under the brake drum and the surface of the axle shaft flange in contact with the drum with graphite grease or Litol-24 grease to facilitate removal of the drum during subsequent disassembly. Install the brake drum after installing the rear axle on the car and securing the cable ends to the parking brake drive levers.
