Disassemble the Powertrax No-Slip Tracon System for inspecon by reversing the instal-
laon procedure in the Installaon Guide. Be sure not to use heat to disassemble any
axle components. To do so can adversely eect the properes of materials and weaken
or distort components.
Bent axles, more easily damaged prior to installaon of the Powertrax No-Slip Tracon
System, are not uncommon and may be dicult to visually detect. The Powertrax No-
Slip Tracon System is less forgiving of a bent axle. It is advisable to closely inspect the
straightness of the axles during installaon. A bent axle may cause excessive wear of the
Powertrax No-Slip Tracon System components which could lead to a malfuncon.
During installaon, be sure to inspect the “dierenal case” (somemes referred to as
the “carrier”), the “ring” and “pinion gears” and the “side gear” “thrust washers”. It is
unusual for these to be excessively worn or damaged, however, a thorough inspecon is
highly recommended to ensure the overall integrity of the dierenal. Any worn or dam-
aged component should be replaced. Do not drive the vehicle with any damaged driveline
components.
Thoroughly test your new Powertrax No-Slip Tracon System aer installaon by follow-
ing the test procedures in the Installaon Guide. Should you wish to periodically check
for proper operaon, test to verify that both wheels are driving properly and dierenat-
ing as required. Make this test under load, so that engine torque is applied through the
Powertrax No-Slip Tracon System with the wheels on the ground. Select a at surface
with good tracon and drive the vehicle in right and le circles make sure that the outside
wheel is free to overrun and that the outside re does not scu. Drive safely! Perform
this test in forward and reverse. You may wish to periodically repeat the test instrucons
in the Installaon Guide. Any anomaly in the test should be thoroughly invesgated and
corrected prior to placing the vehicle back into service.
