(d) Adjust the drive pinion preload by tightening the compan-
ion flange nut.
Using SST to hold the flange, tighten the nut.
SST 09330−00021
NOTICE:
Coat the nut and screw of the drive pinion with gear oil. As
there is no spacer, tighten a little at a time, being careful not
to overtighten.
(e) Using a torque wrench, measure the preload. Preload (at starting):
New bearing
1.3 − 2.0 N·m (13 − 20 kgf·cm, 11.3 − 17.4 in.·lbf)
Reused bearing
0.7 − 1.0 N·m (7 − 10 kgf·cm, 6.1 − 8.7 in.·lbf)
HINT:
Measure the total preload after first turning the bearing clock-
wise and counterclockwise several times to make the bearing
smooth.
10. w/o DIFFERENTIAL LOCK: INSTALL DIFFERENTIAL CASE IN CARRIER
(a) Place the 2 bearing outer races on their respective bear- ings. Make sure that the left and right outer races are not
interchanged.
(b) Install the case in the carrier.
HINT:
Make sure that there is backlash between the ring gear and
drive pinion.
11. w/ DIFFERENTIAL LOCK: INSTALL DIFFERENTIAL CASE IN CARRIER
(a) Place the 2 bearing outer races on their respective bear- ings. Make sure that the left and right races are not inter-
changed.
(b) Install the assembled plate washer onto the side bearing.
(c) Install the differential case in the carrier.
(d) Make the plate washer and bearing smooth by tapping on
the ring gear with a plastic hammer.
HINT:
If it is difficult to install the differential case into the carrier, re-
place the plate washer with a thinner one.
However, select a plate washer that allows no clearance be-
tween it and the carrier.

(a) Using a dial indicator, with holding the side bearing of the
ring gear side and measure the backlash.
Backlash (reference): 0.15 mm (0.0059 in.)
(b) Select a case cover side plate washer using the backlash
as reference.
Side plate washer thickness
(c) Select a ring gear side plate washer of a thickness which
eliminates any clearance between the plate washer and
carrier.
(d) Remove the 2 plate washers and differential carrier.
(e) Install the plate washer into the lower part of the carrier.
(f) Place the plate washer onto the dif ferential case together
with the outer race, and install the differential case with
the outer race into the carrier.
(g) Using a plastic hammer, make the washer and bearing smooth by tapping the ring gear.
(h) Using a dial indicator, measure the ring gear backlash. Backlash: 0.15 − 0.20 mm (0.0059 − 0.0079 in.)
If it is not within the specification, adjust it by either increasing
or decreasing the number of washers on both sides by an equal
amount.
HINT:
There should be no clearance between the plate washer and
case.
Ensure that there is ring gear backlash.

13. w/ DIFFERENTIAL LOCK:
ADJUST SIDE BEARING PRELOAD
(a) After adjustment with the backlash as reference, remove
the ring gear side plate washer.
(b) Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the re- moved plate washer.
(c) Install a new thicker washer of 0.06 − 0.09 mm (0.0024 −
0.0035 in.) than the washer removed.
HINT:
Select a washer which can be pressed in 2/3 of the way with fin-
ger.
(d) Using SST, tap in the plate washer. SST 09504−22010
(e) Align the matchmarks on the cap and carrier.
(f) Tighten the 4 bearing cap bolts to the specified torque. Torque: 113 N·m (1,150 kgf·cm, 83 ft·lbf)
(g) Using a dial indicator, adjust the ring gear backlash until it is within the specification.
Backlash: 0.15 − 0.20 mm (0.0059 − 0.0079 in.)
If it is not within the specification, follow the procedure listed be-
low.
If backlash is greater than the specification:
Replace the cover side washer with a thicker washer. When do-
ing so replace the ring gear side plate washer with one having
a thickness equalling the amount the cover side plate washer
thickness was decreased.
If backlash is less than specification:
Replace the cover side washer with a thicker washer. When do-
ing so, replace the ring gear side plate washer with one having
a thickness equalling the amount the cover side plate washer
thickness was increased.

(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
as 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.

The backlash is adjusted by turning the left and right adjusting
nuts equal amounts. For example, loosen the nut on the left
side one notch and torque the nut on the right side one notch.

DIFFERENTIAL LOCKING SYSTEM
ON−VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT DIFFERENTIAL LOCK SYSTEM
(a) Inspect the indicator lights.
Check that the indicator lights (front side and rear side)
light up for approx. 1 second when the ignition switch is
turned ON.
(b) Inspect the differential lock operation. (1) Jack up the vehicle then start the engine.
(2) Put the transfer shift lever on the L position.
(3) When the Diff. lock control switch is set to the RR
position, the indicator light (rear side) is turned on.
Differential lock is applied to the rear wheel at this
time.
HINT:
If the gears of the differential lock system are not meshed, the
indicator light remains blinking, so rotate the tires to mesh the
gear.
(4) When the Diff. lock control switch is at the OFF posi-
tion, the indicator light goes off.
Differential lock is released for the rear wheel at this
time.
(5) When the Diff. lock control switch is set to the FR/ RR position, the indicator lights (front side and rear
side) are turned on.
Differential lock is applied to both the front wheels
and rear wheels at this time.
