Inspection

INFOID:0000000004201614

INSPECTION BEFORE DISASSEMBLY

• Check the clearance between side gear and differential case as follows.
1. Clean final drive assembly sufficiently to prevent side gear thrust washer, differential case, side gear, and

other parts from sticking by gear oil.

2. Put differential case vertically so that side gear to be measured faces upward.
3. Place Tool and a dial indicator onto side gear.

4. Move side gear up and down, and measure the clearance.

CAUTION:

There should be no resistance and gears should rotate

freely.

5. If not within specification, adjust the clearance by changing side

gear thrust washer thickness.

6. Turn differential case upside down and measure the clearance between side gear and differential case on

the other side in the same way.

INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY

Gear, Washer, Shaft, And Case

• Check side gears, side gear thrust washers, pinion mate shaft, pin-

ion mate gears, pinion mate thrust washers and differential case. If

necessary, replace with a new one.
