Note :
When ordering shims, find the part number in the Parts Catalog by using the thickness of the shims listed
in the above table.
5. Inner Bearing
Place the shim on the drive pinion, with the chamfered side
turned towards the pinion head then install the inner bearing on
to the pinion using an installer and a press.
Installer : 9-8522-1165-0 (J-6133-01)
Note:
Do not apply pressure to the roller cage.
Apply pressure only to the inner race.
6. Collapsible Spacer
Discard the used collapsible spacer and install a new one.
9. Oil Seal
Use oil seal installer to install a new oil seal that has been
soaked in rear axle lubricant.
Installer : 9-8522-1275-0 (J-24250)
Note :
Take care not to use a rear differential oil seal instead of
the front differential oil seal.

12. Flange Nut and Washer
(1) Apply lubricant to the pinion threads.
(2) Tighten the nut to the specified torque using the pinion
flange holder.

(3) Pinion bearing preload
(a) Measure the bearing preload by using a torque meter. Note
the scale reading required to rotate the flange.
(b) continue tightening until the specified starting torque is
obtained.

13. Adjust Shim
(1)
Attach the side bearing to the differential assembly without
shims. Support the opposite side using a pilot to prevent
bearing damage.

(2) Insert the differential cage assembly with bearing oute
r
races into the side bearing bores of the carrier.
Page 259 of 4264

FRONT WHEEL DRIVE 4C1-39
(3) Using two sets of feeler gauges, insert a feeler stock o
f
sufficient thickness between each bearing outer race and
the carrier to remove all end plat. Make certain the feele
r
stock is pushed to the bottom of the bearing bores.
Mount the dial indicator on the carrier so that the indicato
r
stem is at right angles to a tooth on the ring gear.
Dial indicator : 5884-0126-0
(J-8001)
(4)
Adjust feeler gauge thickness from side to side until ring
gear backlash is in the specified range.
Backlash mm(in)
0.13 - 0.18 (0.005 - 0.007)
With zero end play and correct backlash established,
remove the feeler gauge packs, determine the thickness o
f
the shims required and add 0.05 mm (0.002 in) to each
shim pack to provide side bearing preload. Always use ne
w
shims.
(5) Remove side bearing

14. Side Bearing
Install the side bearings together with the selected shims.
1 Installer : 9-8522-1164-0 (J-24244)
2 Drive handle : 5-8840-0007-0 (J-8092)
3 Pilot : 9-8521-1743-0 (J-8107-2)

Gear Tooth Contact Pattern Check and Adjustment
Apply a thin coat of prussian blue or equivalent to the faces of
the 7 - 8 teeth of the ring gear. Check the impression of
contact on the ring gear teeth and make necessary adjustment
as described below if the contact is abnormal.

20. Differential Assembly
(1) Clean the faces of the front axle case and differential
carrier.
Apply the recommended liquid gasket or its equivalent to
the sealing side of the axle case and the carrier.
(2) Attach the differential case and the carrier assembly to the
front axle case and tighten the nuts and bolts. The axle
case bolt is used for drainage.
