He's getting deeper and deeper for no good reason(at least not that we know of). Which is why I asked why he's replacing the fork.The shoes/pads on the end of the fork can be replaced. And although this place is great, a little more research and maybe a manual purchase or download on his part, would have proved more than beneficial for a job like this. Just sayin'
matt, when you reinstall the collar, note the tapered side goes to the outside. i think? yes i'm sure. maybe. yes i'm definitely sure. i hope.

test the fits first, as removal of the bearing is 50/50 that you might destroy it.
if you ruin it, then you lose the option of leaving it in.
to remove it, use a slide hammer type action. hook it from the inside with a 90* tool. try to catch it at the outer sleeve of the bearing cage, rather than the inner. then yank it or hammer it out, switching sides as needed. the cage will likely be damaged and ruined.

o ok no big deal. guess i just have a brand new shift fork now 
. but anyhow shes all back together i decided that the plastic bushing had more play than the metal bearing so i left the bearing in there.
just have to fill her up and hope she dont leak!
but one final question, how does the vac line hook up? i want to say black is left red is right

Good God man! Next time you tackle a job like this, do your research and take some pics! Those two lines should go into a rubber boot that would orient the lines upwards. In any freakin case! The red line connects to the passenger side.
And btw! Do you have a brand new shift fork that has new pads on it?

yea i realized that the lines only go one way. yea brand new fork and pads.
now the 4x4 wont engage. i guess i need to open the cad back up. make sure of the following
the collar is as far to the right of the right axle shaft as possible?
the shift fork is engaged on the collar?
anything else?
