4.Measure clearance betweensidegear anddifferential case
with washers following theprocedure below:
a. Set Tool anddial indicator onside gear.

b.Move sidegear upand down tomeasure dialindicator
deflection. Alwaysmeasure indicatordeflection onboth
side gears.

Clearance betweensidegear anddifferential casewith
washers: 0.1 -0.2 mm (0.004 -0.008 in)

c. Ifnot within specification, adjustclearance bychanging
thickness ofside gear thrust washers.
