(d) 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.)
Referring to the table below, select thrust washers which
will ensure that the backlash is within specification. Try to
select washers of the same size for both sides.
Thrust washer thickness

1.00 (0.0394)1.15 (0.0453)
1.05 (0.0413)1.20 (0.0472)
If the backlash is not within specification, install a thrust
washer of a different thickness.
(e) Using a hammer and punch, drive the lock pin through the
case and hole in the pinion shaft.
(f) Stake the differential case.
5. INSTALL SIDE BEARINGS
(a) Install the speedometer drive gear onto the differential
case.
(b) Using SST and a press, press in the RH side bearing onto
the differential case.

6. INSTALL RING GEAR
(a) Clean the contact surface of the differential case.
(b) Heat the ring gear to about 100 °C (212 °F) in an oil bath.
(c) Carefully remove the ring gear from the water.
NOTICE: Do not heat the ring gear above 110 °C (230 °F).
(d) Clean the contact surface of the ring gear with cleaning
solvent.
(e) Quickly install the ring gear on the differential case.
(f) Install new locking plates and set bolts. When the ring
gear has cooled sufficiently, tighten the set bolts uniformly
a little at a time. Torque the bolts.

(g) Using a hammer and drift punch, stake the locking plates.
HINT: Stake one claw flush with the flat surface of the nut.
For the claw contacting the protruding portion of the nut,
stake only the half on the tightening side.

DIFFERENTIAL SIDE BEARING PRELOAD
ADJUSTMENT
1. PLACE OUTER RACE AND ADJUSTING SHIM ONTO
RH SIDE BEARING
Use the adjusting shim which was removed or one 2.40
mm (0.0945 in.) thick.
2. PLACE DIFFERENTIAL CASE INTO TRANSAXLE
CASE
Be sure to install the adjusting shim.
3. INSTALL LH BEARING RETAINER

6. ADJUST SIDE BEARING PRELOAD
Using SST and a torque meter, measure the preload of
the ring gear.
SST 09564±32011
Preload (at starting):
New bearing
1.0 ± 1.6 N´m (10 ± 16 kgf´cm, 8.7 ± 13.9 in.´lbf)
Reused bearing
0.5 ± 0.8 N´m (5 ± 8 kgf´cm, 4.3 ± 6.9 in.´lbf)
If the preload is not within specification, remove the differ-
ential case assembly.
Reselect the RH adjusting shim.

HINT: The preload will change by about 0.3 ± 0.4 N´m (3
± 4kgf´cm, 2.6 ± 3.5 in.´lbf) with a change in shim thick-
ness of 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.).
7. REMOVE DIFFERENTIAL CASE AND COMPONENT
PARTS
If the preload is adjusted within specification, remove the
bearing retainer, differential case, RH side bearing and
shim.
Be careful not to lose the adjusting shim.

If the preload is greater than specified, replace the
bearing spacer.

If the preload is less than specified, retighten the nut
13 N´m (130 kgf´cm, 9 ft´lbf) at a time until the speci-
fied preload is reached.
If the maximum torque is exceeded while retightening the
nut, replace the bearing spacer and repeat the preload
procedure.
Do not back off the nut to reduce the preload.
Maximum torque:
289 N´m (2,950 kgf´cm, 213 ft´lbf)
(e) If the preload is adjusted within specification, make a note
of it.
DIFFERENTIAL INSTALLATION
1. PLACE OUTER RACE AND SELECTED ADJUSTING
SHIM ONTO RH SIDE BEARING
2. PLACE DIFFERENTIAL CASE INTO CASE
Be sure to install the adjusting shim into place.
3. INSTALL LH BEARING RETAINER
(a) Install a new O±ring.
(b) Position the retainer by tapping it while holding the differ-
ential case center with the retainer.
(c) Clean the threads of the bolts and case with white gaso-
line.
