1. DIFFERENTIAL CASE ASSEMBLY
1) Install the differential bevel gear and bevel pin-
ion together with washers, and insert pinion shaft.
NOTE:
Face the chamfered side of washer toward gear.2) Measure the backlash between differential bevel
gear and pinion. If it is not within specifications, in-
stall a suitable washer to adjust it.

E: INSPECTION
Repair or replace the differential gear in the follow-
ing cases:
The hypoid drive gear and drive pinion shaft
tooth surface are damaged, excessively worn, or
seized.
The roller bearing on the drive pinion shaft has a
worn or damaged roller path.
There is damage, wear, or seizure of the differ-
ential bevel pinion, differential bevel gear, washer,
pinion shaft, and straight pin.
The differential case has worn or damaged slid-
ing surfaces.
1. DIFFERENTIAL BEVEL PINION GEAR

Measure the backlash between differential bevel
gear and pinion. If it is not within specifications, in-
stall a suitable washer to adjust it.
NOTE:
Be sure the pinion gear tooth contacts adjacent
gear teeth during measurement.

3. TOOTH CONTACT OF HYPOID GEAR
Check the tooth contact of hypoid gear as follows:
Apply a uniform thin coat of red lead on both tooth
surfaces of 3 or 4 teeth of the hypoid gear. Move
the hypoid gear back and forth by turning the trans-
mission main shaft until a definite contact pattern is
developed on hypoid gear, and judge whether face
contact is correct. If it is inaccurate, make adjust-
ment.
