Description
The differential includes the differential side gears and the shaft mounted differential pinion gears. Direct contact
between the gears and the differential case is prevented by the differential side gear thrust washers installed under
the gears. The differential pinion shaft is held in position by a differential pinion shaft lock pin that extends through
the end of the differential pinion shaft and the differential case.
The differential transaxle assembly consists of the following components:
•Differential case (part of the final drive carrier)
• 2 pinion gears supported by a pinion shaft
• 2 side gears supported by the differential case and half-shafts

The differential operates through the gear mesh with the ring gear bolted to the differential case. The engine power
is transmitted to the axle shafts through the pinion mate and side gears. The side gears are connected to the axle
shafts.

Removal & Installation
NOTE :
The following special tools are required to perform the repair procedure:
•MD-998801 - Bearing Remover
1. Remove the transaxle input shaft assembly, transaxle output shaft assembly, 1st-2nd shift fork, 3rd-4th shift fork and 5th-reverse fork shaft together as a unit (See Transaxle Assembly Unit Repair in Section 08 Transaxle).
2. Remove the transaxle differential assembly.
3. Mount the differential in a vice.
4. Remove the drive gear bolts (1).
5. Using special tool MD-998801 (1), disassemble the differential-front/rear shaft bearing.
6. Tap the drive gear off the differential case assembly using a suitable tool.
7. Remove the pinion mate shaft use a suitable tool.

Inspection
1. Clean all components.
2. Inspect the following components for wear: •Ring gear
• Adjusting washers
• Side gears
• Spherical washers
• Planetary gears
• Planetary gear shaft
Assembly
1. Install the adjustment shim-axle shaft gear/axle shaft gear/spherical washer-planetary gear/planetary gear/plan-
etary gear shaft.
2. Assemble the spherical washer on the back of axle shaft gear, and then install the axle shaft gear on
the differential.
NOTE :
The adjustment shim with intermediate thickness (0.93 to 1.00 mm) shall be assembled when a new axle shaft gear
is installed. 3. Place the spherical washer on the back of any planetary gear to make two planetary gears engage simulta- neously with the axle shaft gear. Turn these gears, and at the same time, install them in their proper positions.
4. Insert and install the planetary gear shaft.
5. Measure the gear clearance between the axle shaft gear and the planetary gear.
(Standard value: 0.08 to 0.15 mm)
6. If the measured gear clearance doesn’t conform to the standard value, select and install the adjust-
ment shim, and then measure the gear clearance
again.
NOTE :
Adjust the gear clearance until the gear clearance of
both sides is the same as each other.

The axle receives power from the transaxle through the rear intermediate drive shaft. The drive shaft is connected to
the pinion gear which rotates the differential through the gear mesh with the ring gear bolted to the differential case.
The engine power is transmitted to the axle shafts through the pinion mate and side gears.
Removal & Installation
1. Drain the differential gear fluid.
2. Remove the rear intermediate drive shaft to rear axle flange bolts.(Tighten: Rear intermediate drive shaft to rear axle flange bolts to 65 ± 6 N·m)
3. Remove the bolts (1) from the left rear half shaft to the rear axle output flange.
(Tighten: Rear half shaft to rear axle output flange
bolts to 40 N·m)
4. Remove the left rear half shaft.
5. Remove the bolts (1) from the right rear half shaft to the rear axle output flange.
(Tighten: Rear half shaft to rear axle output flange
bolts to 40 N·m)
6. Remove the right rear half shaft.
