FIG. 3—Limited-Slip Differential Check

Using
a
torque wrench
of at
least

200 ft-lbs capacity, rotate
the
axle

shaft.
Be
sure that
the
transmission
is

in neutral,
one
rear wheel
is on the

floor,
and the
other rear wheel
is

raised
off the
floor.
The
torque
re-

quired
to
continuously rotate
the
shaft

should
be at
least
75
ft-lbs
or 40
ft-lbs

(Traction-Lok).
The
initial breakaway

torque
may
be
higher than
the
contin-

uous turning torque,
but
this
is nor-

mal.
The
axle shaft should turn with

^ven pressure throughout
the
check

without slipping
or
binding.

If
the
torque reading
is
less than

specified, check
the
differential
for

improper assembly.

A vehicle equipped with
a
limited-

slip differential will always have both

wheels driving.
If,
while
the
vehicle
is

being serviced, only
one
wheel
is

raised
off the
floor
and the
rear axle

is driven
by the
engine,
the
wheel
on

the floor will drive
the
vehicle
off the

stand
or
jack.

GEAR TOOTH CONTACT

PATTERN CHECK

When rolling
a
tooth pattern,
use

the special compound (tube) packed

with each service ring gear
and
pinion

set.

Paint
all
gear teeth
and
roll
a pat-

tern
as
described
in
Section
3.
After

diagnosing
the
tooth pattern
as ex-

plained here, make
the
appropriate

adjustments
as
outlined
in
Section
2.

In making
a
final gear tooth
con-

tact pattern check,
it is
necessary
to

recognize
the
fact that there
are
three

different types
of
gear sets, hunting,

non-hunting
and
partial non-hunting.

Each type
is
determined
by the num-
ber
of
teeth
in the
gears.
The non-

hunting
and
partial non-hunting types

can
be
identified
by the
paint timing

marks
on the
pinion
and
ring gear

teeth. (Part 4-2,
Fig. 51).
See
Part
4-5

for complete identification specifica-

tions.

ACCEPTABLE TOOTH

PATTERNS (ALL AXLES)

Figure
4
shows acceptable tooth

patterns
for all
axles.
Any
combina-

tion
of
drive
and
coast patterns will
be

acceptable.

In general, desirable tooth patterns

should have
the
following character-

istics:

1.
The
drive pattern should
be
fair-

ly well centered
on the
tooth.

2.
The
coast pattern should
be
fair-

ly well centered
on the
tooth.

3.
Some clearance between
the pat-

tern
and the top of the
tooth
is
desir-

able.

4.
There should
be no
hard lines

where
the
pressure
is
high.

The individual gear
set
need
not

conform exactly
to the
ideal pattern

to
be
acceptable.

Any combination
of
drive
and
coast

patterns shown
in Fig. 4 are
accep-

table.

Hunting Gear
Set

In
a
hunting-type gear
set, any one

pinion gear tooth comes into contact

with
all
ring gear teeth.
In
this type,

several revolutions
of
the
ring gear
are

required
to
make
all
possible gear

combinations.
Any combination
of
drive
and
coast

patterns shown
in
Fig.
4
will
be
acceep-

table.

Non-Hunting Gear
Set

In
a
non-hunting type gear
set, any

one pinion gear tooth comes into
con-

tact with only
a few
ring gear teeth.

In this type, only
one
revolution
of
the

ring gear
is
required
to
make
all
poss-

ible tooth contact combinations.
Any

combination
of
drive
and
coast
pat-

terns shown
in Fig. 4
will
be
accept-

able.

Partial Non-Hunting

Gear
Set

In
a
partial non-hunting type gear

set,
any one
pinion tooth comes into

contact with only part
of
the
ring gear

teeth,
but
more than
one
revolution
of

the ring gear
is
required
to
make
all

possible gear tooth combinations.
Any

combination
of
drive
and
coast
pat-

terns shown
in Fig. 4
will
be
accept-

able.

SHIM
AND
BACKLASH

CHANGES

Since each gear
set
rolls
a
charac-

teristic pattern,
the
patterns shown
in

Fig.
4 are
considered acceptable
and

should
be
used
as a
guide.
The
drive

pattern
is
rolled
on the
convex side
of

the tooth,
and the
coast pattern
is

rolled
on the
concave side.

The movement
of
tooth contact
pat-

terns with changes
in
shimming
can
be

summarized
as
follows:

Removable Carrier Type Axle

1.
Thicker shim with
the
backlash

set
to
specifications moves
the
pinion

further from
the
ring gear:

2.
Thinner shim with
the
backlash

set
to
specifications moves
the
pinion

closer
to the
ring gear:

If
the
patterns
are not
correct,

make
the
changes
as
indicated.
The

pinion need
not be
disassembled
to

change
a
shim.
All
that
is
required
is

to remove
the
pinion, bearing,
and re-

tainer assembly
and
install
a
different

shim. When reinstalling
the
pinion

and retainer assembly
of a
non-
hunt-

ing
or
partial non-hunting gear
set, be

sure that
the
marked tooth
on the pi-

nion indexes between
the
marked teeth

on
the
ring gear
(Fig.
51,
Part
4-2).

hour before install-

ing them. Installation without
use of

the proper tool will distort
the
seal

and cause leakage. Coat
the
outside
edges
of the new oil
seal with
a non-

hardening type
of
sealer such
as Per-

matex
No. 2 or its
equivalent.

4.

ivasher on the pinion shaft. (Apply a

small amount of lubricant on the

washer side of the nut.)

10.
Hold the flange with the tool

shown in Fig. 9 while the nut is being

tightened.

11.
Tighten the pinion shaft nut,

rotating the pinion occasionally to in-

sure proper bearing seating, (Fig. 6)

and take frequent preload readings

until the preload is at the original rec-

orded reading established in step 3.

12.
After original preload has been

reached, tighten the pinion nut slowly,
until an additional preload of 6 to 12

in-lbs has been added.

The preload should not exceed the

amount shown above, or bearing fail-

ure may result.

Under no circumstances should the

pinion nut be backed off to lessen pre-

load. If this is done, a new pinion

bearing spacer must be installed. (In

addition, the U-joint flange must

never be hammered on, or pneumatic-

-tools used.)

13.
Remove the oil seal replacer

tool from the transmission extension
housing. Install the front end of the

drive shaft on the transmission output

shaft.

DESCRIPTION

A light-duty, integral-carrier, con-

ventional-type rear axle assembly (Fig.

1) is used in Ford and Meteor passen-

ger vehicles equipped with 240-IV and

302 2V engines and related transmis-

sions.
The axle (model WER) incor-

porates the following features:

The hypoid gear set consists of an

8.50 inch diameter ring gear and an

overhung drive pinion which is sup-

ported by two opposed tapered roller

bearings. A drive pinion pilot bearing

is not used in this axle.

The differential carrier is the non-

removable type, with a stamped bolt-

on cover. The filler hole is tapped in
the front portion of the carrier casting

and uses a
1/2-14
tapered pipe plug

with a 3/8 inch square female drive. A

bumper pad is machined on the pinion

nose portion of the carrier. The rub-

ber bumper is mounted on the vehicle

underbody.

The differential case is a one-piece

design, with openings allowing assem-

bly of the internal components and lu-

bricant flow. The differential pinion

shaft is retained with a threaded bolt

(lock) assembled to the case.

The axle housing assembly consists

of tube assemblies pressed and welded

into the differential casting. The brake
backing plate retainer is welded in-

board of the outer edges of the tubes,

and allows assembly of the backing

plate, independent of the axle shafts.

The roller-type wheel bearings have

no inner race, and contact the bearing

journals of the axle shafts.

The axle shafts do not use an inner

or outer bearing retainer. They are

held in the axle by means of C-locks,

positioned in a slot on the splined end.

These C-locks also fit into a machined

recess in the differential side gears

within the differential case. There is

no retainer bolt access hole in the axle

shaft flange.

©All limited slip and Traction-Lok axles use ESW-M2C-104-A lubricant (C6AZ-19580-C).

All conventional axles use ESW-M2C-105-A lubricant (C6AZ-19580-B).

©Approximate refill capacity-Actual lubricant capacities are determined
by
filling
to
bottom
of
filler hole.

©To check these axles, the plug should be backed
out
slowly.
If
seepage occurs around the threads, the plug should
be
turned back
in

immediately to avoid any drainage. This indicates that the specified amount
of
lubricant
is
present
in
the axle.
