3E±12WHEEL AND TIRE SYSTEM
Tire
Tire Replacement
When replacement is necessary, the original metric tire
size should be used. Most metric tire sizes do not have
exact corresponding alphanumeric tire sizes. It is
recommended that new tires be installed in pairs on the
same axle. If necessary to replace only one tire, it should
be paired with tire having the most tread, to equalize
braking traction.
CAUTION: Do not mix different types of tires such
as radial, bias and bias-belted tires except in
emergencies, because vehicle handling may be
seriously affected and may result in loss of control.
Tire Dismounting
Remove valve cap on valve step and deflate the tire. Then
use a tire changing machine to mount or dismount tires.
Follow the equipment manufacturer's instruction. Do not
use hand tools or tire lever alone to change tires as they
may damage the tire beads or wheel rim.
Tire Mounting
Rim bead seats should be cleaned with a wire brush or
coarse steel wool to remove lubricants, and light rust.
Before mounting a tire, the bead area should be well
lubricated with an approved tire lubricant.
After mounting, inflate the tire to 196kPa (28 psi) so that
beads are completely seated. Inflate the air to specified
pressure and install valve cap to the stem.
WARNING: NEVER STAND OVER TIRE WHEN
INFLATING. BEAD MAY BREAK WHEN BEAD SNAPS
OVER RIM'S SAFETY HUMP AND CAUSE SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY.
NEVER EXCEED 240 KPA (35 PSI) PRESSURE WHEN
INFLATING. IF 240 KPA (35 PSI) PRESSURE WILL
NOT SEAT BEADS, DEFLATE, RE-LUBRICATE AND
RE-INFLATE. OVER INFLATION MAY CAUSE THE
BEAD TO BREAK AND CAUSE SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY.
Tire Repair
There are many different materials on the market used to
repair tires.
Manufacturers have published detailed instructions on
how and when to repair tires. These instructions can be
obtained from the tire manufacturer if they are not
included with the repair kit.
Wheel Inspection
Damaged wheels and wheels with excessive run-out
must be replaced.
Wheel run out at rim (Base on hub Bore):
Aluminum
1± Vertical play: Less than 0.55 mm (0.022 in)
2± Horizontal play: Less than 0.55 mm (0.022 in)
480RS012
General Balance Procedure
Deposits of mud, etc. must be cleaned from the inside of
the rim.
The tire should be inspected for the following: match
mount paint marks, bent rims, bulges, irregular tire wear,
proper wheel size and inflation pressure. Then balance
according to the equipment manufacturer's
recommendations.
There are two types of wheel and tire balance.
Static balance is the equal distribution of weight around
the wheel.
Assemblies that are statically unbalanced cause a
bouncing action called tramp. This condition will
eventually cause uneven tire wear.

DIFFERENTIAL (REAR)4A2±21
4. Assemble the differential case into the housing (less
pinion). Install bearing caps and finger tight bolts.
Mount a dial indicator with a magnetic base to the
housing and indicate on the flange or head of screw.
Force the differential assembly as far as possible in
the dirction towards the indicator.
With force still applied, set indicator at zero(0).
NOTE: Dial indicator set should be capable of a minimum
travel of 5.08 mm (0.2 in).

5. Force the differetial assembly as far as it will go in the
opposite direction. Repeat these steps until the same
reading is obtained.
6. RECORD THE READING OF THE INDICATOR.
This amount, in shims, will be included in the final
assembly shim stack to establish side bearing
preload and ring gear and pinion backlash.
7. After marking sure the readings are correct, remove
the indicator and differetial assembly from the
housing.
Pinion Installation

The bearing cups should have been installed in Pinion
Depth Adjustment in this section.
1. Place the shim(1) and inner oil slinger(2) on the pinion
gear, then install the pinion inner bearing(3) using
installer J±42828.
425RW023

Drive the bearing until the bearing cone seats on the
pinion shims.
2. Install a new collapsible spacer.

Lubracate the pinion bearings with axle lublicant.
3. Install pinion to the axle housing.
4. Install outer pinion bearing onto the pinion.

Hold the pinion forward from inside the case while
driving the bearing onto the pinion.
5. Install oil seal slinger.
6. Install pinion oil seal using installer J±37263.
7. Install the pinion flange to the pinion by tapping it with
a rawhide hammer until a few threads show through
the pinion flange.
8. Install pinion washer and a new nut while holding the
pinion flange with flange holder J±8614±01.

Tighten the nut until the pinion end play is just taken
up. Rotate the pinion while tightening the nut to seat
the bearings.
Torque:217-678 N´m (160-500 lb ft)
Once there is no end play in the pinion, the preload
torque should be checked.

Remove flange holder J±8614±01. Using an
inch-pound torque wrench, check the pinion
preload by rotating the pinion with the wrench.

Disassembly
NOTE:

During disassembly, be sure that the valve train
components are kept together and identified so that
they can be reinstalled in their original locations.

Before removing the cylinder head from the engine
and before disassembling the valve mechanism,
perform a compression test and note the results.
1. Remove camshaft drive gear pulley fixing bolt (3),
then pulley (4).
2. Remove camshaft bearing cap fixing bolt (5),
camshaft bearing cap (6), then camshaft exhaust (7),
and intake side (8).
3. Remove tappet with shim (11).
4. Use the J±8062 valve spring compressor and
J±42898 valve spring compressor adapter to remove
the split collar (12), valve spring with upper seat (13)
and valve (14).

5. Remove spark plug (1).
CAUTION: Do not remove the spark plugs when the
head and plugs are hot. Clean dirt and debris from
spark plug recess areas before removal.
Clean
Cylinder head
Carefully remove all varnish, soot and carbon from the
bare metal. Do not use surface conditioning disc on any
gasket sealing surface.
Inspection and Repair
1. Inspect cylinder head gasket and mating surfaces for
leaks, corrosion and blow±by. If the gasket has failed,
determine the cause.
± Insufficient torque on head bolts
± Improper installation
± Loose or warped cylinder head
± Missing dowel pins
± Warped case surface
2. Inspect cylinder head for cracks, especially between
valve seats and in the exhaust ports.
3. Inspect cylinder head deck for corrosion, sand
particles in head and porosity.
CAUTION:

Do not attempt to weld the cylinder head. Replace
it.

Do not reuse cylinder head bolts.
4. Inspect cylinder head deck, common chamber and
exhaust manifold mating surfaces for flatness. These
surfaces may be reconditioned by milling. If the
surfaces are ªout of flatº with ªroundº by more than
specification, the surface should be ground to within
specifications. Replace the head if it requires
machining beyond the repairable limit.
