OVERALL PRELOAD TORQUE
1. Drain the oil.
2. Remove electronically controlled coupling assembly.
Refer to “Electronically Controlled Coupling Assembly”.
3. Rotate the drive pinion gear back and forth in 2 - 3 times to check for abnormal noise and rotation mal-
function.
4. Rotate the drive pinion gear at least 20 times to check for
smooth operation of the bearing.
5. Fit the drive pinion gear socket onto the drive pinion gear spline.
Using a preload gauge, measure the overall preload torque.
●If outside the standard, disassemble, check, and adjust each
part. Adjust the pinion bearing and side bearing preload.
Adjust the pinion bearing preload first, then adjust the side bear-
ing preload.
Side bearing adjusting shims
HYPOID GEAR BACKLASH
1. Drain the oil.
2. Remove the rear cover. Refer to RFD-20, "
Removal of Differen-
tial Assembly" .
3. Following the procedure below, install a dummy cover set to the
gear carrier.
a. Fit dummy cover shims to the right and left side bearing adjust-
ing shims.Overall preload torque:
:1.33 - 2.15 N·m (0.14 - 0.21 kg-m,12 - 19 in-lb)
When the preload torque is large
On pinion bearings : Replace the collapsible spacer.
On side bearings : Use thinner side bearing adjusting shims.
When the preload is small
On pinion bearings : Tighten the pinion nut.
On side bearings : Use thicker side bearing adjusting shims.

5. Rotate the drive gear to measure runout.
●If outside the repair limit, check drive gear assembly condition;
foreign material may be caught between drive gear and differen-
tial case, or differential case or drive gear may be deformed, etc.
CAUTION:
Replace the drive gear and drive pinion gear as a set.: 31 - 36 N·m (3.2 - 3.6 kg-m, 23 - 26 ft-lb)

Backlash : 0.10 - 0.15 mm (0.0039 - 0.0059 in)
When the backlash is large:
Make the drive gear back adjusting shims thicker, and the drive gear front adjusting
shims thinner.
When the backlash is small:
Make the drive gear back adjusting shims thinner, and the drive gear front adjusting
shims thicker.

COMPANION FLANGE RUNOUT
1. Fit a dial gauge onto the companion flange face (inner side of
the propeller shaft mounting bolt holes).
2. Rotate the companion flange to check for runout.
3. Fit a test indicator to the inner side of the companion flange
(socket diameter).
4. Rotate the companion flange to check for runout.
5. If the runout value is outside the repair limit, follow the procedure
below to adjust.
a. Check for runout while changing the phase between companion flange and drive pinion gear by 90° step,
and search for the point where the runout is the minimum.
b. If the runout value is still outside of the limit after the phase has been changed, replace the companion
flange.
c. If the runout value is still outside of the limit after the companion flange has been replaced, possible cause
will be an assembly malfunction of the drive pinion gear and the electronically controlled coupling, mal-
functioning coupling bearing, or malfunctioning electronically controlled coupling.
TOOTH CONTACT
1. Drain the oil.
2. Remove the rear cover. Refer to RFD-20, "
Removal of Differen-
tial Assembly"
3. Attach dummy cover set. Refer to RFD-15, "HYPOID GEAR
BACKLASH" .
4. Apply red lead to drive gear face.
CAUTION:
Apply red lead to the both faces of 3 to 4 gears at 4 loca-
tions evenly spaced on the drive gear.
5. Rotate the drive gear back and forth in several times, check
drive pinion gear to drive gear tooth contact.
CAUTION:
Check tooth contact on drive side (acceleration) and
reverse side (deceleration).Runout limit : 0.13 mm (0.0051 in)
Runout limit : 0.19 mm (0.0075 in)

Drive pinion gear adjusting shim
●In case of face contact or heel contact, thicken the drive pinion
gear adjusting shims to move the drive pinion gear closer to the
drive gear.
●In case of flank contact or toe contact, thin the drive pinion gear
adjusting shims to move the drive pinion gear farther from the
drive gear.
