BACK-UP LAMP SWITCH
REMOVAL
(1) Raise vehicle on hoist.
(2) Disconnect back-up lamp switch connector.
(3) Remove back-up lamp switch (Fig. 95).
INSTALLATION

(2) Connect back-up lamp switch connector.
(3) Lower vehicle.
DIFFERENTIAL
DESCRIPTION
The T850 differential is a conventional open design.
It consists of a ring gear and a two-piece differential
case. The differential case contains the pinion and side
gears, three floating pinion shafts, and a pinion shaft
retaining ring (Fig. 96). The differential case is sup-
ported in the transaxle by tapered roller bearings.
OPERATION
The differential assembly is driven by the interme-
diate shaft via the ring gear. The ring gear drives the
differential case, and the case drives the halfshafts
through the differential gears. The differential pinion
and side gears are supported in the case by pinion
shafts and thrust washers. Differential pinion and
side gears make it possible for front wheels to rotate
at different speeds while cornering.
DISASSEMBLY
(1) Remove differential side bearings:
(a) Install button 8491-1 to differential case (Fig.
97).(b) Set up Tool 5048 (5048-1, -4, -6) as shown in
(Fig. 98).
(c) Remove differential side bearing (Fig. 99).
Same procedure/tools work for both sides.
