DISASSEMBLY
1. CHECK RUNOUT OF COMPANION FLANGE
Using a dial indicator, measure the vertical and lateral runout of
the companion flange. Maximum runout: 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)
2. CHECK RING GEAR RUNOUT
Using a dial indicator, measure the ring gear runout. Maximum runout: 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.)
If the runout is greater than the maximum, replace the ring gear
and driven pinion as a set.
3. CHECK RING GEAR BACKLASH
Using a dial indicator, measure the ring gear backlash. Backlash: 0.13 −0.18 mm (0.0051 −0.0071 in.)
If the backlash is not within the specification, adjust the side
bearing preload or repair as necessary.
4. MEASURE DRIVE PINION PRELOAD
Using a torque wrench, measure the preload of backlash be-
tween the drive pinion and ring gear. Preload (at starting):
0.5 − 0.8 N·m (5 − 8 kgf·cm, 4.3 − 6.9 in.·lbf)
5. CHECK TOTAL PRELOAD
Using a torque wrench, measure the preload. Total preload (at starting):
Drive pinion preload plus
0.4 − 0.6 N·m (4 − 6 kgf·cm, 3.5 − 5.2 in.·lbf)
If necessary, disassemble and inspect the differential.

14. w/o DIFFERENTIAL LOCK:
INSTALL ADJUSTING NUTS
Install the adjusting nuts on the carrier , making sure the nuts are
threaded properly.
15. INSTALL BEARING CAPS
Align the matchmarks on the cap and carrier. Screw in the 2
bearing cap bolts 2 or 3 turns and press down the bearing cap
by hand.
HINT:
If the bearing cap does not fit tightly on the carrier , the adjusting
nuts are not threaded properly.
Reinstall the adjusting nuts if necessary.
16. ADJUST SIDE BEARING PRELOAD
(a) Torque the 4 bearing cap bolts to the specified torque, and loosen them to the point where the adjusting nuts can
be turned by SST.
SST 09504−00011
Torque: 78 N·m (800 kgf·cm, 58 ft·lbf)
(b) Fully tighten the 4 bearing cap bolts by hand.
(c) Using the SST, torque the adjusting nut on the ring gear side until the ring has a backlash of about 0.2 mm (0.008
in.).
(d) With turning the ring gear, use the SST to fully tighten the adjusting nut on the drive pinion side. After the bearings
are settled, loosen the adjusting nut on the drive pinion
side.
(e) Place a dial indicator on the top of the adjusting nut on the ring gear side.
(f) Adjust the side bearing for zero preload by tightening the
other adjusting nut until the pointer on the indicator be-
gins to move.
(g) Torque the adjusting nut 1 − 1.5 notches from the zero preload position.

side one notch and torque the nut on the right side one notch.
(i) Torque the 4 bearing cap bolts. Torque: 78 N·m (800 kgf·cm, 58 ft·lbf)
(j) Recheck the ring gear backlash. Backlash: 0.13 −0.18 mm (0.0051 −0.0071 in.)
(k) Using a torque wrench, measure the preload. Total preload (at starting):
