12. MEASURE TOTAL PRELOAD
Using a torque wrench, measure the preload with the teeth of
the drive pinion and ring gear in contact.
Total preload (at starting):
Drive pinion preload plus 0.4 ± 0.6 N´m (4 ± 6 kgf´cm,
3.5 ± 5.2 in.´lbf)
13. INSPECT TOOTH CONTACT BETWEEN RING GEAR
AND DRIVE PINION
(a) Remove the 10 bolts, side bearing retainer and differen-
tial case.
(b) Coat 3 or 4 teeth at three different positions on the ring
gear with red lead primer.
(c) Install the differential case and side bearing retainer with
the 10 bolts.
Torque: 69 N´m (700 kgf´cm, 51 ft´lbf)
(d) Hold the companion flange firmly and rotate the ring gear
in both directions.
(e) Remove the 10 bolts, side bearing retainer and differen-
tial case.
(f) Inspect the tooth contact pattern.

HINT:
First fit a washer with the same thickness as the washer which
was removed, then after checking the tooth contact pattern, re-
place the washer with a different thickness if necessary.
6. INSTALL DRIVE PINION REAR BEARING
Using SST and a press, install the rear bearing onto the drive
pinion.
SST 09506±35010
7. TEMPORARILY ADJUST DRIVE PINION PRELOAD
(a) Install the drive pinion and front bearing.
HINT:
After adjusting the ring gear tooth contact pattern, assemble the
spacer, washers and oil seal.
(b) Using SST, install the companion flange.

(c) Coat the threads of a new nut with hypoid gear oil.
(d) 2WD:
Install the conpanion flange nut.
(1) Install the 3 stud bolts so that the heads come out
40 mm (1.57 in.).
(2) Set the SST and install the 3 nuts to the companion
flange.
