1.Place the differential assembly on V-blocks and in-
stall both axles.
Check backlash of both pinion gears.
Standard (New): 0.05-O.15 mm (0.002-0.006 inl
3. lf backlash is out of tolerance, replace the differen-
tial carrier.

NOTE: Check the bearings for wear and rough rotation.
lf the bearings are OK, removal is not necessary.
1. Remove the ball bearings using a bearing puller.

lf out of limits, select a new thrust shim from the
following table:
