Differential Side Gear Clearance
Assemble the differential parts if they are disassembled. Refer to "Differential Assembly".
1. Place differential case straight up so that side gear to be mea-
sured comes upward.
2. Using feeler gauge, measure the clearance between side gear back and differential case at 3 different points, while rotating
side gear. Average the 3 readings, and then measure the clear-
ance of the other side as well.
CAUTION:
To prevent side gear from tilting, insert feeler gauges with
the same thickness from both sides.
3. If the back clearance is outside t he specification, use a thicker/
thinner side gear thrust washer to adjust. Refer to RFD-38,
"Inspection and Adjustment".
CAUTION:
Select a side gear thrust washer for right and left individually.
Side Bearing Preload
Selecting carrier side bearing adjusting washers is required for successful completion of this procedure.
1. Make sure all parts are clean. Also, make sure the bearings are
well lubricated with gear oil.
2. Place the differential case, with side bearings and bearing races installed, into gear carrier.
PDIA0460E
Side gear back clearance specification:
0.2 mm (0.008 in) or less.
(Each gear should rotate smoothly without excessive
resistance during differential motion.)
When the back clearance is large:
Use a thicker thrust washer.
When the back clearance is small: Use a thinner thrust washer.

3. Insert left and right original side bearing adjusting washers inplace between side bearings and gear carrier.
4. Install bearing caps in their correct locations and tighten bearing cap mounting bolts to the specified torque. Refer to "COMPO-
NENTS".
5. Turn the carrier several times to seat the bearings.
6. Measure the turning torque of the carrier at the drive gear mounting bolts with a spring gauge.
7. If the turning torque is outside the specification, use a thicker/ thinner side bearing adjusting washer to adjust. Refer to RFD-
38, "Inspection and Adjustment".
CAUTION:
Select a side bearing adjust ing washer for right and left
individually.
8. Record the total amount of washer thickness required for the correct carrier side bearing preload.

1. Make sure all parts are clean and that the bearings are well lubricated.
2. Assemble the pinion gear beari ngs into the differential shim
selector tool.
Pinion front bearing; make sure the J-34309-3 pinion front
bearing seat is secured tightly against the J-34309-2 gauge
anvil. Then turn the pinion front bearing pilot, J-34309-5, to
secure the bearing in its proper position.
Pinion rear bearing; the pinion rear bearing pilot, J-34309-8,
is used to center the pinion rear bearing only. The pinion rear
bearing locking seat, J-34309-4, is used to lock the bearing to
the assembly.

2.5 mm (0.098 in) thick plain washer between J-34309-9 and
J-34309-16. Both surfaces of J-34309-9 and J-34309-16 must
be parallel with a clearance of 2.5 mm (0.098 in).

screw assembly.
4. Assemble the pinion front bearing inner race and the J-34309-2 gauge anvil. Assemble them together with the J-34309-1 gauge
screw in gear carrier. Make sure that the pinion height gauge
plate, J-34309-16, will turn a full 360 degrees. Tighten the two
sections together by hand.

ing cap mounting bolts to the specified torque. Refer to "COM-
PONENTS".
9. Select the correct standard pinion height adjusting washer thick- ness. Select by using a standard gauge of 3 mm (0.12 in) and
your J-34309-101 feeler gauge. Measure the distance between
the J-34309-11 pinion height adapter including the standard
gauge and the arbor.

11. Correct the pinion height washer size by referring to the “pinion head number”.
There are two numbers painted on the drive pinion. The first
one refers to the drive pinion and drive gear as a matched
set. This number should be the same as the number on the
drive gear. The second number is the “pinion head height
number”. It refers to the ideal pinion height from standard
for quietest operation. Use th e following chart to determine
the correct pinion height washer.
12. Select the correct pinion height adjusting washer. Refer to RFD-38, "
Inspection and Adjustment".
13. Remove the J-34309 differential shim selector tool from the final drive housing. Then disassemble to retrieve the pinion bearings.
