All my new bearings arrived yesterday so I made a quick run to the USA to pick them up. All went smoothly crossing the boarder both coming and going and I was home in no time.

Today I began disassembling the shafts and gears to clean them up. All has gone well except for the idle shaft. I don’t have the special tool for removing the speedometer gear. It’s tool J1737. I suspect it is simply a tool shaft that has matching female threads of the speedometer gear to screw on. I did try a bearing removal tool and it chipped part of it.

I’m not sure if I’ll need to source a new one or not.

I believe the GM# is 1811722

I see from the LWD site they have a Ford part that looks the same. Part # C01Q-17285-A. Does anyone know if they cross over?
