For quiet and reliable final drive operation, the following five
adjustments must be made correctly:
1. Side bearing preload
2. Pinion gear height
3. Pinion bearing preload
4. Ring gear-to-pinion backlash. Refer to ``ASSEMBLY'',
PD-30.
5. Ring and pinion gear tooth contact pattern
Side Bearing Preload
A selection of carrier side retainer adjusting shims is
required for successful completion of this procedure.
1. Make sure all parts are clean. Also make sure the bearings
are well lubricated with light oil or type ``DEXRON
TM'' auto-
matic transmission fluid.
2. Install differential carrier and side bearing assembly into the
final drive housing.
3. Place all of the original side retainer adjusting shims onto the
side bearing retainer that goes at the ring gear end of the
carrier.
4. Install both bearing retainers onto the final drive housing and
torque the retainer bolts.
Bolt torque specification:
:9-12N´m(0.9 - 1.2 kg-m, 78 - 104 in-lb)
5. Turn the carrier several times to seat the bearings.
6. Measure the carrier turning torque with a spring gauge at the
ring gear retainer bolt.
Turning torque specification:
34.3 - 39.2 N (3.5 - 4.0 kg, 7.7 - 8.8 lb)
of pulling force at the ring gear bolt
