INSTALLATION
1. Apply multi-purpose grease to the lips of the new front oil seal.
Then drive the new front oil seal in evenly to 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 FFD-13, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
• Do not loosen drive pinion lock nut to adjust the total preload torque. If the drive pinion lock nut
torque or the total preload torque exceeds the specifications, replace the collapsible spacer and
tighten it again to adjust. Refer to FFD-13, "
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 FFD-7

P Total Preload Torque
1. Install the differential side shaft and differential side flange if necessary.
CAUTION:
The differential side shaft and differential side flange must be installed in order to measure total
preload torque.
2. Rotate the drive pinion back and forth 2 to 3 times to check for unusual noise and rotation malfunction.
3. Rotate the drive pinion at least 20 times to check for smooth operation of the bearings.
4. Measure total preload torque using Tool.
NOTE:
Total preload torque = Drive pinion bearing preload torque +
Side bearing preload torque
• If the measured value is out of the specification, check and adjust each part. Adjust the drive pinion
bearing preload torque first, then adjust the side bearing preload torque.
Drive Gear Runout
1. Fit a dial indicator to the drive gear back face.
2. Rotate the drive gear to measure runout.
• If the runout is outside of the limit, check the condition of the drive
gear assembly. Foreign material may be caught between the drive
gear and differential case, or the differential case or drive gear may
be deformed.
CAUTION:
Replace drive gear and drive pinion as a set.

PDIA0697E
If the total preload torque is greater than specification
On drive pinion bearings: Replace the collapsible spacer.
On side bearings: Loosen the side bearing adjuster by the same amount on each
side.
If the total preload torque is less than specification
On drive pinion bearings: Tighten the drive pinion lock nut.
On side bearings: Tighten the side bearing adjuster by the same amount on each
side.
Runout limit: 0.08 mm (0.0031 in) or less

FRONT FINAL DRIVE ASSEMBLY
• Keep side bearing outer races together with side bearing
inner races. Do not mix them up.
12. For proper reinstallation, paint matching marks on the differential
case and drive gear.
CAUTION:
Use paint for matching marks. Do not damage differential
case or drive gear.
13. Remove the drive gear bolts.
14. Tap the drive gear off the differential case using suitable tool.
CAUTION:
Tap evenly all around to keep drive gear from bending.
15. Remove the lock pin of the pinion mate shaft from the drive gear
side using suitable tool.
16. Remove the pinion mate shaft.
17. Turn the pinion mate gear, then remove the pinion mate gear,
pinion mate thrust washer, side gear and side gear thrust
washer from the differential case.
