Kia Sportage: Front Wheel Transfer Assembly: Repair procedures| Removal |
It is not recommended to overhaul the transfer assembly
because a special three-dimensional measuring instrument is required to
determine the sizes of the transfer assembly spacers when disassembling
and reassembling the transfer assembly. If putting wrong sized spacers
in the transfer assembly, it may cause noise and vibration.So, if inner
parts of the transfer assembly need to be replaced, the transfer
assembly should be replaced with new one. |
