Differential Case
1. Measure clearance between side gear thrust washer and dif-ferential case.Clearance between side gear thrust washer and differ-
ential case (A þ B): 0.10 - 0.20 mm (0.0039 - 0.0079 in)
The clearance can be adjusted with side gear thrust washer.
(Refer to PD-57.)
2. Apply gear oil to gear tooth surfaces and thrust surfaces and check to see the turn properly.
3. Install L.H. and R.H. differential cases.
4. Place differential case on ring gear.
5. Apply locking agent [Locktite (stud lock) or equivalent] to ring gear bolts, and install them.
Tighten bolts in a criss-cross fashion, lightly tapping bolt head
with a hammer.

6. Install pinion mate gears and pinion shaft to differential case B.
7. Install side gear to pinion mate gears.
8. Install each disc and plate.
Use same procedures as outlined in steps 1. through 4. above.
9. Install differential case A.
Position differential cases A and B by correctly aligning marks
stamped on cases.
10. Tighten differential case bolts.

11. Place ring gear on differential case and install new lock straps and bolts.
Tighten bolts in a criss-cross fashion, lightly tapping bolt head
with a hammer.
Then bend up lock straps to lock the bolts in place.

11. Position side bearing on gear carrier with threads properlyengaged; screw in adjusters lightly at this stage of assembly.Tool number: ST32580000
12. Align mark on bearing cap with that on gear carrier and install bearing cap on gear carrier.
I Do not tighten at this point to allow further tightening of side
bearing adjusters.
13. Tighten both right and left side bearing adjusters alternately and measure ring gear backlash and total preload at the same time.
Adjust right and left side bearing adjusters by tightening them
alternately so that proper ring gear backlash and total preload
can be obtained.Ring gear-to-drive pinion backlash: 0.10 - 0.20 mm (0.0039 - 0.0079 in)
I When checking preload, turn drive pinion in both direc-
tions several times to set bearing rollers.
Tool number: ST3127S000
The total pinion bearing preload value with the differential case
assembly should be in accordance with the same value measured
without the differential case assembly. (See point 9.)
The relationship between both is:
