ASSEMBLYNJAT01721. Install side gear and thrust washers in differential case.
2. Install pinion mate gears and thrust washers in differential case
while rotating them.
+When inserting, be careful not to damage pinion mate gear
washers.
+Apply ATF to any parts.

3. Measure clearance between side gear and differential case
with washers using the following procedure.
a. Set Tool and dial indicator on side gear.
b. Move side gear up and down to measure dial indicator deflec-
tion. Always measure indicator deflection on both side gears.
Clearance between side gear and differential case with
washers:
0.1 - 0.2 mm (0.004 - 0.008 in)
SMT616
c. If not within specification adjust clearance by changing thick-
ness of side gear thrust washers.
Side gear thrust washer:
Refer to SDS, AT-478.
