(g) Using a dial indicator, measure the ring gear backlash un-
til it is within the specified value.
Backlash: 0.13 - 0.18 mm (0.0051 - 0.0071 in.)
If the backlash is not within the specified value, adjust by either
increasing or decreasing the thickness of washers on both
sides by an equal amount.
(h) After rotating the ring gear 5 turns or more, recheck the
ring gear backlash.
12. MEASURE TOTAL PRELOAD
Using a torque wrench, measure the preload with the teeth of
the drive pinion and ring gear in contact.
Preload (at starting):
Drive pinion preload plus
0.3 - 0.5 N´m (3 - 5 kgf´cm, 2.7 - 4.4 in.´lbf)
13. INSPECT TOOTH CONTACT BETWEEN RING GEAR
(a) Coat 3 or 4 teeth at 3 different positions on the ring gear
with red lead primer.
(b) Turn the companion flange, in both directions to inspect
the ring gear for proper tooth contact.
