Ford au ba bf falcon

Replacing the pinion bearing in a 2004 BA Falcon Ute can be a complex and challenging task. Here are the general steps to follow:

1. First, raise the rear of the vehicle securely on jack stands and remove the driveshaft from the rear differential.
2. Drain the gear oil from the differential and remove the rear cover.
3. Remove the retaining bolt from the pinion yoke, and use a puller to remove the yoke from the pinion shaft.
4. Use a suitable tool to remove the pinion nut and washer.
5. Mark the location of the pinion flange relative to the pinion shaft to maintain proper gear mesh alignment when reassembling.
6. Carefully remove the pinion flange from the pinion shaft.
7. Use a bearing puller tool to remove the old pinion bearing from the pinion housing.
8. Install a new pinion bearing onto the pinion shaft using a bearing installation tool.
9. Reassemble the pinion flange, washer, and nut onto the pinion shaft.
10. Use a torque wrench to tighten the pinion nut to the proper torque specification.
11. Reinstall the rear cover and refill the differential with the recommended gear oil.
12. Reinstall the driveshaft, making sure to properly align the yoke to the pinion flange.
13. Lower the vehicle off the jack stands and test drive to ensure proper operation.

Brake Rotor (Disc) - REMOVAL & INSTALLATION

1. Loosen the wheel lug nuts.
   
2. Jack up the front of the vehicle and support on jackstands.
   
3. Remove the wheel and tire.
   
4. Remove the brake caliper assembly as described earlier in this section, but do not disconnect the brake hose.
   
5. Suspend the caliper assembly by a piece of wire. Do not allow it to hang by the brake hose.
   
6. Follow the procedure given under wheel bearing removal in Suspension and Steering for models with manual and automatic locking hubs (lines down).

New rotor assemblies come protected with an anti-rust coating which should be removed with denatured alcohol or degreaser. New hubs must be packed with EP wheel bearing grease.

1. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure.

remove cv outer nut, tire brake caliper and lower ball joint use a bar to pry against lower a frame to seperate ball joint slip out cv axel then remove four nuts securing wheel bearing. I would have to check at home for exact instructions.

First disconnect the battery positive lead. Then you will have to remove the lower steering column shroud - philips screwdriver. Then you will see two tork screws behind the steering wheel. Remove these and the airbag will come out. Disconnect the three elect' plugs and the airbag will come free. Wheel centre bolt is also a tork bolt but I used an imperial allen key (5/16 if I remember correctly) to loosen it but didn't take it right out. Then a wheel puller with the centre screw resting against the tok bolt head to loosen the wheel, (two metric bolts screw into the wheel hub) remove the puller, remove the tork bolt and the wheel should come off easy. Good luck.
