(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.)
Refering 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
mm (in.)
Thickness mm (in.)Thickness mm (in.)
1.60 (0.0630)1.70 (0.0670)
1.80 (0.0709)
If the backlash is not within specification, install a thrust
washer of a different thickness.
(e) Using a pin punch and hammer, drive the lock pin through
the case and hole in the pinion shaft.
(f) Stake the differential case.
2. 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.
NOTICE: Do not heat the ring gear above 110°C (230°F).
(c) Carefully remove the ring gear from the oil bath.
(d) Clean the contact surface of the ring gear with cleaning
solvent.
(e) Quickly install the ring gear on the differential case.
Install the 12 bolts.
HINT: Align the matchmarks on the differential left case
and contact the ring gear.
(f) Tighten the set bolts uniformly a little at a time.
Torque the bolts.
Torque: 124 N´m (1,260 kgf´cm, 91 ft´lbf)

DIFFERENTIAL AND DRIVE PINION
INSTALLATION
1. INSTALL DRIVE PINION INTO TRANSAXLE CASE
(a) Using SST, install the bearing to the drive pinion shaft.
SST 09350±32014 (09351±32120)
(b) Place the bearing cage onto the drive pinion shaft.
NOTICE: Be careful not to damage the oil seals with the
pinion shaft.
(c) Using a brass bar and hammer, slightly tap the bearing
cage into the transaxle case until the snap ring groove in
the bore can be seen.
(d) Using SST, install snap ring into the bore.
SST 09350±32014 (09351±32050)
(e) Using SST, install the snap ring.

2. PLACE OIL SLINGER AND NEW SPACER
HINT: Install the spacer with the small end downward.
3. INSTALL OUTER RACE TO TRANSAXLE CASE
Using SST, press in the outer race.
SST 09350±32014 (09351±32100, 09351±32140)
4. INSTALL COUNTER DRIVE GEAR
(a) Place a brass bar into the transaxle hole to hold the drive
pinion shaft.
(b) Using SST, press in the counter driven gear until the
counter driven gaer bearing almost touches the counter
gear.
SST 09350±32014 (09351±32140)
5. INSTALL NEW LOCK NUT AND ADJUST DRIVE PIN-
ION PRELOAD
(a) Install the new lock nut.
(b) Using SST to hold the gear, tighten the nut.

SST 09330±00021, 09350±32014 (09351±32032)
(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)
