Pull on shield to remove. Bearing is split and can be removed from yoke. To install shield reverse steps. Insert shield over bearing tube noting that tabs must be where yellow tabs are located. Rotate shield tab until yellow tab can be pushed into place and it locks there.
WING DRIVELINE SHIELD
The Driveline Integral Shields should not become dented or otherwise damaged. The Integral Shield Assembly has a Nylon Bearing at each end and should turn freely. This nylon bearing should require lubrication every 8 hours. To remove the Integral Shields for replacement or repair, turn the three Nylon Nuts 1/4 turn in the Shield Slots of the Cone and Tube and remove them. Slip the Shield Cone Assembly off inner section of the Driveline. Install the new or repaired Shield on the Driveline. Place the split Nylon Bearing over the Driveline Housing of Shaft against the Yoke and in the Bearing groove. Install shield over the Housing so the Nylon Bearing fits into the Shield Bearing Retainer. Align a slot in the Shield Cone with one of the slots in the Shield. Put one of the Nylon Nuts back in through the aligned slots and turn until it is perpendicular to the slots. Add the other two Nylon Nuts.
.Make certain that the Driveline Integral Shields are free to telescope and rotate around the Driveline without binding.
