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 the 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.

REAR FINAL DRIVE ASSEMBLY

1.

Install front bearing outer race (1) and rear bearing outer race
(2) using drifts.

CAUTION:

• At first, using a hammer, tap bearing outer race until it

becomes flat to gear carrier.

• Never reuse pinion front and rear bearing outer race.

2.

Select drive pinion height adjusting washer. Refer to "Pinion
Gear Height".

3.

Install selected drive pinion height adjusting washer (2) to drive
pinion. Press pinion rear bearing inner race (1) to it, using drift.

CAUTION:

• Pay attention to the direction of pinion height adjusting

washer. (Assemble as shown in the figure.)

• Never reuse pinion rear bearing inner race.

4.

Assemble collapsible spacer to drive pinion.

CAUTION:

Never reuse collapsible spacer.

5.

Apply gear oil to pinion rear bearing, and assemble drive pinion
into gear carrier.

6.

Apply gear oil to pinion front bearing, and assemble pinion front
bearing inner race to drive pinion assembly.

CAUTION:

Never reuse pinion front bearing inner race.

7.

Using suitable spacer (A), press the pinion front bearing inner
race to drive pinion as far as drive pinion nut can be tightened.

8.

Using the drift, install front oil seal as shown in figure.

CAUTION:

• Never reuse oil seal.
• When installing, never incline oil seal.
• Apply multi-purpose grease onto oil seal lips, and gear oil

onto the circumference of oil seal.

9.

Install companion flange (1).
NOTE:
When reusing drive pinion, align the matching mark (B) of drive
pinion with the matching mark (A) of companion flange, and then
install companion flange (1).

10. Apply anti-corrosion oil to the thread and seat of drive pinion lock nut, and temporarily tighten drive pinion

lock nut to drive pinion.

CAUTION:

Never reuse drive pinion lock nut.

11. Adjust to the drive pinion lock nut tightening torque and pinion

bearing preload torque.

CAUTION:

• Adjust to the lower limit of the drive pinion lock nut tight-

ening torque first.

• If the preload torque exceeds the specified value, replace

collapsible spacer and tighten it again to adjust. Never
loosen drive pinion lock nut to adjust the preload torque.

• After adjustment, rotate drive pinion back and forth 2 to 3

times to check for unusual noise, rotation malfunction,
and other malfunctions.

12. Install differential case assembly. Refer to "Differential Assem-

bly".

CAUTION:

Never install rear cover yet.

13. Check and adjust drive gear runout, tooth contact, drive gear to drive pinion backlash, and companion

flange runout. Refer to "Drive Gear Runout", "Tooth Contact", "Backlash", "Companion Flange Runout".
Recheck above items. Readjust the above description, if necessary.

14. Check total preload torque. Refer to "Total Preload Torque".
15. Install rear cover. Refer to "Differential Assembly".
