a.

Place differential case straight up so that side gear to be mea-
sured comes upward.

b.

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.

c.

If the back clearance is outside the specification, use a thicker/
thinner side gear thrust washer to adjust.

CAUTION:

Select a side gear thrust washer for right and left individu-
ally.

6.

Drive a lock pin into pinion mate shaft, using a punch.
Make sure lock pin is flush with differential case.

CAUTION:

Never reuse lock pin.
