CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
FILLING
1. Remove the filler plug and gasket from the rear final drive
assembly.
2. Fill the rear final drive assembly with new differential gear oil
until the level reaches the specified level near the filler plug hole.
3. Install the filler plug with a new gasket on it to the rear final drive
assembly. Tighten to the specified torque. Refer to RFD-15,
"Disassembly and Assembly".
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
Checking Differential Gear OilINFOID:0000000003532602
OIL LEAKAGE AND OIL LEVEL
1. Make sure that differential gear oil is not leaking from the rear final drive assembly or around it.
2. Check the differential gear oil level from the filler plug hole as
shown.
CAUTION:
Do not start engine while checking differential gear oil level.
3. Install the filler plug with a new gasket on it to the rear final drive
assembly. Tighten to the specified torque. Refer to RFD-15,
"Disassembly and Assembly".
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.

4. Measure the total preload torque. Refer to RFD-15, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
NOTE:
Record the total preload torque measurement.
5. Remove the drive pinion lock nut using Tool.
6. Put matching marks on the companion flange and drive pinion
using paint.
CAUTION:
Use paint to make the matching marks. Do not damage the
companion flange or drive pinion.
7. Remove the companion flange using suitable tool.

FRONT OIL SEAL
1. Apply multi-purpose grease to the lips of the new front oil seal.
Then drive the new front oil seal in evenly until it becomes flush
with the gear carrier using Tool.
CAUTION:
• Do not reuse front oil seal.
• Do not incline the new front oil seal when installing.
• Apply multi-purpose grease to the lips of the new front oil
seal.
2. Install the companion flange to the drive pinion while aligning the matching marks.
3. Apply anti-corrosive oil to the threads of the drive pinion and the
seating surface of the new drive pinion lock nut. Then adjust the
drive pinion lock nut tightening torque using Tool A, and check
the total preload torque using Tool B.
• The total preload torque should be within the total preload
torque specification. When not replacing the collapsible
spacer, it should also be equal to the measurement taken dur-
ing removal plus an additional 0.56 N·m (0.06 Kg-m, 5 in-lb).
• If the total preload torque is low, tighten the drive pinion lock
nut in 6.8 N·m (0.69 Kg-m, 5ft-lb) increments until the total pre-
load torque is met.
CAUTION:
• Do not reuse drive pinion lock nut.
• Apply anti-corrosive oil to the threads of the drive pinion
and the seating surface of the new drive pinion lock nut.
• Adjust the drive pinion lock nut tightening torque to the
lower limit first. Do not exceed the drive pinion lock nut
specified torque. Refer to RFD-15, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
• Do not loosen drive pinion lock nut to adjust the total preload torque. If the total preload torque
exceeds the specifications, replace the collapsible spacer and tighten it again to adjust. Refer to
RFD-15, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
• After adjustment, rotate drive pinion back and forth 2 to 3 times to check for unusual noise, rota-
tion malfunction, and other malfunctions.
4. Installation of the remaining components is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Check the differential gear oil level after installation. Refer to RFD-8, "
Checking Differential Gear
Oil". Tool number : ST15310000 ( — )

REMOVAL
1. Remove the drive shaft from the rear final drive assembly. Refer to RAX-7, "Removal and Installation".
2. Remove the side flange using Tools.
3. Remove the side oil seal using suitable tool.
CAUTION:
Do not to damage gear carrier.
INSTALLATION
1. Apply multi-purpose grease to the lips of the new side oil seal.
Then drive the new side oil seal in evenly until it becomes flush
with the gear carrier using Tool.
CAUTION:
• Do not reuse side oil seal.
• Do not incline the new side oil seal when installing.
• Apply multi-purpose grease to the lips of the new side oil
seal.
