5. Unscrew the bearing cap bolts and remove the bearing caps.Pull out the differential carrier assembly. NoticePlace alignment marks on the bearing cap not to change the caps before removal. When pulling out the differential
carrier assembly, be careful not to damage the axle housing.
6. Disassemble the parts of the differential carrier assembly.
7. Remove the drive pinion lock nut. Disassemble the parts of the drive pinion.
Assembly Procedure
1. Clean the all parts and check the followings : Check the ring gear and drive pinion for wear and damage. If damaged, replace it as a set.
Check the bearing for sticks, wear, noise and turning resistance.
Check the side gear, pinion, pinion shaft and thrustwasher for wear and damage.
Check the differential carrier for crack and wear (bearingcontact surface). Check the gear case for crack.
