rear bearing cup in this order out of case by using a brass
bar.
D: INSPECTION
Wash all the disassembled parts clean, and examine them
for wear, damage, or other defects. Repair or replace
defective parts as necessary.
1) Crown gear and drive pinion
(1) If abnormal tooth contact is evident, find out the
cause and adjust to give correct tooth contact at
assembly. Replace the gear if excessively worn or inca-
pable of adjustment.
(2) If crack, score, or seizure is evident, replace as a
set. Slight damage of tooth can be corrected by oil
stone or the like.
2) Side gear and pinion mate gear
(1) Replace if crack, score, or other defects are evident
on tooth surface.
(2) Replace if thrust washer contacting surface is worn
or seized. Slight damage of the surface can be cor-
rected by oil stone or the like.
3) Bearing
Replace if seizure, peeling, wear, rust, dragging during
rotation, abnormal noise or other defect is evident.
4) Thrust washers of side gear and pinion mate gear
Replace if seizure, flaw, abnormal wear or other defect is
evident.
5) Oil seal
Replace if deformed or damaged, and at every disassem-
bling.
6) Differential carrier
Replace if the bearing bores are worn or damaged.
7) Differential case
Replace if its sliding surfaces are worn or cracked.
8) Companion flange
Replace if the oil seal lip contacting surfaces have flaws.

E: ASSEMBLY
1) Precautions for assembling
(1) Assemble in the reverse order of disassembling.
(2) Check and adjust each part during assembly.
(3) Keep the shims and washers in order, so that they
are not misinstalled.
(4) Thoroughly clean the surfaces on which the shims,
washers and bearings are to be installed.
(5) Apply gear oil when installing the bearings and
thrust washers.
(6) Be careful not to mix up the right and left hand cups
of the bearings.
G3M0079
(7) Replace the oil seal with new one at every disas-
sembly. Apply chassis grease between the lips when
installing the oil seal.
G3M1037
2) Adjusting preload for front and rear bearings
Adjust the bearing preload with spacer and washer
between front and rear bearings. Pinion height adjusting
washer are not affected by this adjustment. The adjustment
must be carried out without oil seal inserted.
(1) Press rear bearing race into differential carrier with
ST1 and ST2.

(2) Insert ST1 into case with pinion height adjusting
washer and rear bearing cone fitted onto it.
CAUTION:
Re-use the used washer if not deformed.
Use a new rear bearing cone.
(3) Then install preload adjusting spacer and washer,
front bearing cone, ST2, companion flange, and washer
and drive pinion nut.

so that the specified preload is obtained when nut is
tightened to the specified torque with ST2.
CAUTION:
Use a new lock nut.
NOTE:
Be careful not to give excessive preload.

NOTE:
At this time, install a pinion height adjusting shim which is
temporarily selected or the same as that used before.

(3) Obtain the thickness of pinion height adjusting shim
to be inserted from the following formula, and replace
the temporarily installed shim with this one.
T=To+N (Hx0.01) 0.20 (mm)
Where:
T = Thickness of pinion height adjusting shim (mm)
To = Thickness of shim temporarily inserted (mm)
N = Reading of thickness gauge (mm)
H = Figure marked on drive pinion head
(Example of calculation)
To = 2.20 + 1.20 = 3.40 mm
N = 0.23 mmH=+1,
T = 3.40 + 0.23 0.01 0.20 = 3.42
Result: Thickness = 3.42 mm

14) Adjusting side bearing retainer shims
(1) The drive gear backlash and side bearing preload
can be determined by the side bearing retainer shim
thickness.
(2) When replacing differential case, differential carrier,
side bearing and side bearing retainer, obtain the right
and left retainer shim thickness from the following for-
mulas.
T
1(Left) = (A + C + G1 D) x 0.01 + 0.76 E (mm)

T
1&T2: Thickness of left and right side bearing
retainer shim (mm)
A & B : Number marked on differential carrier
C & D : Number marked on differential case
E & F : Difference of width of left and right side
bearing from standard width 20.0 mm,
expressed in a unit of 0.01 mm. For
example, if the bearing measured width
is 19.89 mm, value of E or F is as follows.
20.00 19.89 = 0.11 (E or F)
