this video is more about the tools he fabricated to do the rebuild than the actual rebuild. an actual rebuild video of this particular gear box would of been great.
I had a similar issue with a 95 Pathfinder steering gear box. I ended up drilling a couple holes into the lock ring for the more readily available Face Spanner Wrenches.
There is a tool premade for autos if some one wanted to buy it. Go to a auto parts store and look for either a tie rod tool (with four pins) or some 4 wheel drives use a similar wrench. Either of those will allow some one to use either a impact wrench or a regular ratchet to unwind the retaining collar.
If anyone is still following this CZcams site would you please comment on how many 5 sixteenths ball variants there? Was I stumbled in with this accidentally.? Ol boy...
My guess is that he did not need the fabricated pipe tool if he would have backed out the set screw first then used his screw driver to back the nut out.
MobileProductions21 thanks for the reply back .. I wish I could reuse my old one but the bearing cage/race is cracked and can not use it as it is .. well I'll keep looking

That was a good film. How how many ballparians went into that warm Gear.

How many ball bearings did you have? I'm currently trying to rebuild the same box. Also, how do we take the worm gear stem out of the housing?
what was the part number for the upper bearing its a bitch to find
