2004 Buick Rendezvous Axle Beam Mount

You will need a slide hammer, Axle Shaft remover extension, axle shaft puller, and wheel hub remover.

You should assemble the sun gear thrust bearing, the Differential carrier sun gear, the park gear, the internal gear thrust bearing, and the sun gear shaft into the differential carrier, then install the differential carrier into the case and install the case extension housing.

You need to raise and support the vehicle, reference mark the propeller shaft at the transfer case flange, then remove the propeller shaft-to-transfer case flange bolts, reference mark the propeller shaft at the torque tube flange, remove the propeller shaft-to-torque tube flange bolts, then push the propeller shaft toward the rear of the vehicle, and remove the propeller shaft.
