Cat D3B installation tool for pinion flages

03spfld · 2025-05-23 12:46

I’ve redone my clutches and brakes in My cat D3B and decided to replace the Seals on both sides for the bevel gear And final drive pinion. The book calls for a Special installer/power ram that even the Local car dealer doesn’t have anymore. Does anyone have a shade-tree way of doing it. I’ve got it apart , but can’t get The flages pressed back on. Thanks for Any information.

    I’ve only got about a foot of area in there to work. I’ll try to post a picture when I get back to it Monday.
