2005 CHRYSLER VOYAGER oil

(52)DETERMINING #4 THRUST PLATE
THICKNESS / INPUT SHAFT END PLAY:
(a) Select the thinnest #4 thrust plate thickness
and install to input clutch assembly (Fig. 139). Use
petrolatum to retain.
(b) Install input clutch assembly into position
and verify that it is completely seated by viewing
through input speed sensor hole. If view through
input speed sensor hole is not as shown in (Fig.
140), the input clutch assembly is not seated prop-
erly.
(c) Remove oil pump o-ring (Fig. 141).Be sure
to reinstall oil pump o-ring after selecting the
proper #4 thrust plate.
(d) Install pump and gasket to transmission.
Install and torque bolts.(e) Set up input shaft for measurement with
Indicator Set C3339 and End Play Set 8266 as
shown in (Fig. 142).
(f) Measure the input shaft end play with the
transaxle in the vertical position.Input shaft end
play must be within 0.005 to 0.025 inch.For
example, if end play reading is 0.055 inch, select
No. 4 Thrust Plate which is 0.071 to 0.074 thick.
This should provide an input shaft end play read-
ing of 0.020 inch which is within specifications.
(g) Refer to the No. 4 thrust plate chart to select
the proper No. 4 thrust plate:

(3) Rotate the differential at least one full revolu-
tion to ensure the tapered roller bearings are fully
seated.
(4) Using Tool L-4436A and an inch-pound torque
wrench, check the turning torque of the differential
(Fig. 186).The turning torque should be
between 5 and 18 inch-pounds.
(5) If the turning torque is within specifications,
remove tools. Setup is complete.
(6) If turning torque is not within specifications
proceed with the following steps.
(a) Remove differential bearing retainer from
the transaxle case.(b) Remove the bearing cup from the differential
bearing retainer using Tool 6062A.
(c) Remove the existing shim from under the
cup.
(d) Measure the existing shim.
(e) If the turning torque was too high when mea-
sured, install a 0.05 mm (0.002 inch) thinner shim.
If the turning torque is was too low, install a 0.05
mm (0.002 inch) thicker shim. Repeat until 5 to 18
inch-pounds turning torque is obtained. Oil Baffle
is not required to be installed when making shim
selection.
(f) Install the proper shim under the bearing
cup. Make sure the oil baffle is installed properly
in the bearing retainer, below the bearing shim
and cup.
(g) Install the differential bearing retainer using
Tool 5052 and C-4171. Seal the retainer to the
housing with MOPARtAdhesive Sealant and
torque bolts to 28 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
(7) Using Tool L-4436A and an inch-pound torque
wrench, recheck the turning torque of the differential
(Fig. 186).The turning torque should be
between 5 and 18 inch-pounds.
Shim thickness need be determined only if any of
the following parts are replaced:
²Transaxle case
²Differential carrier
²Differential bearing retainer
²Extension housing
²Differential bearing cups and cones
