NOTE
• Before taking measurement with torque
wrench, check for smooth rotation with
turning bevel pinion 15 revolutions or
more by hand.
• Be sure to tighten gradually and carefully
till specified pinion bearing preload is
obtained. Turning back overtightened
flange nuts should be avoided.
• Measure pinion bearing preload while
turning bevel pinion about 50 rpm.

23) Remove differential cover.
24) To measure bevel gear backlash, set dial gauge at
right angle to bevel gear tooth, fix drive bevel pinion
and read dial gauge while moving bevel gear.
If bevel gear backlash is out of specification, repeat
Step 22).

• Be sure to apply measuring tip of dial
gauge at right angles to convex side of
tooth.
• Measure at least 4 points on drive bevel
gear periphery.

sponge etc.
b) Turn gear to bring its painted part in mesh with drive bevel pinion and turn it back and forth by hand to repeat
their contact.
c) Bring painted part up and check contact pattern, referring to the following table. If contact pattern is not normal,
readjust or replace as necessary according to instruction in the table.
NOTE
Be careful not to turn drive bevel gear more than one full revolution, for it will hinder accurate check.

Tooth Contact Pattern Diagnosis and Remedy
Normal
High Contact
Pinion is positioned too far from the center of drive
bevel gear (1).
• Increase thickness of pinion (2) height adjusting
shim and position pinion closer to gear center.
• Adjust drive bevel gear backlash to specification.
Low Contact
Pinion is positioned too close to the center of drive
bevel gear (1).
• Decrease thickness of pinion (2) height adjusting
shim and position pinion farther from gear center.
• Adjust drive bevel gear backlash to specification.
If adjustment is impossible, replace differential carrier.
• Check seating of bevel gear or differential case. (Check bevel
gear for runout.)
• If adjustment is impossible, replace drive bevel gear and pinion
set or differential carrier.
Replace drive bevel gear and pinion set or differential case.
