DISASSEMBLY
1. REMOVE SIDE BEARING FROM DIFFERENTIAL
CASE
(a) Using SST, remove the bearings from both sides of the
case.
SST 09950- 00020, 09950- 00030, 09950- 60010
(09951-00360)
(b) Remove the speedometer drive gear from the RH side.
2. REMOVE RING GEAR
(a) Place matchmarks on the ring gear and case.
(b) Remove the 6 bolts.
(c) Using a plastic hammer, remove the ring gear from the
case.
3. INSPECT SIDE GEAR BACKLASH
Using a dial indicator, measure the backlash of one side gear
while holding one pinion toward the case.
Standard backlash:
0.05 - 0.20 mm (0.0020 - 0.0079 in.)
If the backlash is not within the specification, install the correct
thrust washer to the side gears.
4. DISASSEMBLE DIFFERENTIAL CASE
(a) Using a pin punch and hammer, remove the pinion shaft
straight pin.
(b) Remove the pinion shaft from the case.
(c) Remove the 2 pinion gears and side gears with the 4
thrust washers from each gear.
5. Transmission Case Side:
IF NECESSARY, REPLACE OIL SEAL AND SIDE
BEARING OUTER RACE
(a) Using a screwdriver and hammer, remove the oil seal.
(b) Using SST, remove the outer race and plate washer.
SST 09612-65014
(c) Place the plate washer into the case.

REASSEMBLY
1. ASSEMBLE DIFFERENTIAL CASE
(a) Install the correct thrust washers and side gears.
Refer to the table below, select thrust washers which will
ensure that the backlash is within the specification. Try to
select washers of the same size for both sides.
Standard backlash:
0.05 - 0.20 mm (0.0020 - 0.0079 in.)
Thickness mm (in.)Thickness mm (in.)
1.50 (0.0591)1.65 (0.0650)
1.55 (0.0610)1.70 (0.0669)
1.60 (0.0630)1.75 (0.0689)
(b) Install the thrust washers and side gears in the differential
case.
(c) Install the pinion shaft.
(d) Using a dial indicator, check the side gear backlash.
Measure the side gear backlash while holding one pinion
gear toward the case.
Standard backlash:
0.05 - 0.20 mm (0.0020 - 0.0079 in.)
If the backlash is not within the specification, install a thrust
washer of different thickness.
(e) Using a pin punch and hammer, install the straight pin
through the case and hole in the pinion shaft.
(f) Stake the differential case.
2. INSTALL RING GEAR ON DIFFERENTIAL CASE
(a) Clean the contact surface of the differential case.
(b) Heat the ring gear in boiling water.
(c) Carefully remove the ring gear from the water.
(d) After the moisture on the ring gear has completely evapo-
rated, quickly install the ring gear to the differential case.
HINT:
Align the matchmarks on the differential case and contact the
ring gear.
(e) Install the 6 set bolts. Tighten each set bolt uniformly, at
a time in succession. Torque the bolts.
Torque: 124 N´m (1,260 kgf´cm, 91 ft´lbf)

1. DRAIN TRANSAXLE FLUID
Using a hexagon wrench, remove the drain plug and drain the
fluid into the suitable container.
Torque: 49 N´m (500 kgf´cm, 36 ft´lbf)
2. REMOVE OIL PAN AND GASKET
NOTICE:
Some fluid will remain in the oil pan. Remove the oil pan
bolts, and carefully remove the oil pan assembly. Discard
the gasket.
Torque: 4.9 N´m (50 kgf´cm, 43 in.´lbf)
3. EXAMINE PARTICLES IN PAN
Remove the magnets and use then to collect any steel chips.
Look at the chips on the magnet carefully to anticipate what
type of wear you will find in the transaxle.
Steel (magnetic) ...... bearing, gear and plate wear
Brass (non-magnetic) ..... bushing wear
4. REMOVE OIL STRAINER
Remove the 3 bolts and the oil strainer.
NOTICE:
Be careful as some oil will come out of the strainer.
Torque: 10 N´m (100 kgf´cm, 7 ft´lbf)
5. REMOVE OIL PIPES
(a) Remove the 2 bolts and pipe bracket.
Torque: 10 N´m (100 kgf´cm, 7 ft´lbf)
(b) Pry up the both pipe ends with a large screwdriver and re-
move the 4 pipes.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to bend or damage the pipes.
