Series 60 – Section 10.2 Rear Engine Power Take-Off (REPTO) Assembly

Section 10.2
Rear Engine Power Take-Off (REPTO) Assembly

The REPTO (Rear Engine Power Take Off) is an aluminum SAE #1 flywheel housing mounted against the rear of the cylinder block, it takes the place of a standard flywheel housing. It provides a cover for the flywheel and serves as a support for the cranking motor and the transmission.‪

The aluminum flywheel housing has an internal idler gear that is driven off the rear of the crankshaft. Those gears drive an output yoke that faces the rear of the vehicle. The output yoke is located at the one o'clock position and has four different yoke configurations. It provides up to 300 hp intermittent and 240 hp continuous PTO power. ‪

A rear oil seal, which is pressed into the housing, may be removed or installed without removing the housing. Refer to "1.8.2 Removal of Front or Rear Crankshaft Oil Seal (Gear Case Cover or Flywheel Housing Removed)" .‪

The output yoke and its oil seals can be serviced. If there is any internal failure, the REPTO should be removed and replaced as an assembly. ‪

Section 10.2.1
Repair and Replacement for the Rear Engine Power Take-Off Assembly

The REPTO assembly currently is a nonserviceable component; if there are internal problems with the REPTO it must be replaced as an assembly.‪

To determine if repair is possible or replacement is necessary, perform the following procedure. See Figure "Flowchart for Repair or Replacement of REPTO Assembly" .‪

  18. Insert a 3/4 in. drive wrench in the front pulley to stop crank from turning.
  19. Install the nut to the spline and torque to 474–542 N·m (350–400 ft lbs).

    Note: All cranking motors assembled to the REPTO housings should be installed with a new gasket.

  20. Install cranking motor. Refer to "9.4.3 Installation of Cranking Motor" .

    NOTICE:

    Do not connect to the wrong port. Connecting to the wrong port will allow coolant to be fed to the gears and the engine will fail.‪

  21. Install the oil supply line to the brass fitting on the housing and the opened port.
  22. Install oil pan. Refer to "3.11.4 Installation of Oil Pan" .
