(c) Turn the gear counterclockwise and clockwise several
times.
(d) Using a small torque wrench, measure the preload of the
drive pinion.
Drive pinion 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 greater than specified, replace the
bearing spacer.

AX±104
If the preload is less then 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: 353 N´m (3,600 kgf´cm, 260 ft´lbf)
(e) If the preload is adjusted within specification, make a note
of it.
(f) Stroke the lock nut.
6. INSTALL APPLY GASKET
7. PLACE OUTER RACE AND SHIM ONTO RH SIDE
BEARING
8. PLACE DIFFERENTIAL CASE INTO TRANSAXLE

Bolt length:
Bolt A: 100 mm (3.937 in.)
Bolt B: 65 mm (2.559 in.)
Bolt C: 75 mm (2.953 in.)
10. ADJUST SIDE BEARING PRELOAD
(a) Remove any packing material on the contacting surfaces
of the LH bearing retainer and transaxle case.
HINT: Do not apply seal packing yet.
(b) Install the LH bearing retainer and torque the 6 bolts.
Torque: 19 N´m (195 kgf´cm, 14 ft´lbf)
(c) Snap down the bearings by turning the differential case
several times.
(d) Using a small torque wrench, measure the differential to-
tal preload.
Total preload (at starting):
New bearing
Drive pinion preload plus 0.2±0.4 N´m
(2.5±5.1 kgf´cm, 2.2±3.6 in.´lbf)
Reused bearing
Drive pinion preload plus 0.1±0.2 N´m
(1.3±2.0 kgf´cm, 1.1±1.7 in.´lbf)
If the preload is not within specification, replace the ad-
justing shim in the LH bearing retainer with one of a differ-
ent thickness.
