Final Drive - Assembly

ASSEMBLY










NOTE: The differential is serviced as an assembly. Differential service is limited to bearing cups and cones. Any other differential component failure must be remedied by differential assembly and transfer shaft replacement.

1. Install side gear thrust washer (1) to differential case.










2. Install side gear (1) to differential case.










3. Install both pinion gears (1) and washers (2) to case, while orientating washer tabs to notch in case.










4. Install pinion shaft (1).










5. Install side gear (1) to case.










6. Install side gear thrust washer (1) to case.










7. Install differential support (1) into position, while aligning through-holes.










8. Install differential ring gear (2) to case (1).










NOTE: New bolts must be used.

9. Install ring gear-to-case bolts, with pinion shaft retainers, and tighten bolts (4) to 95 Nm (70 ft. lbs.).
10. Check differential side gear turning torque using Differential Bearing Torque Tool C- 4995-1. Turning torque should be no more than 10 to 20 in-lbs (drag). If drag exceeds 20 in-lbs decrease shim size, if the drag is less than 10 in-lbs (drag) increase shim size.





11. Using Installer 6888 (1) and a press (2), install differential bearing (3) to pinion side of the differential housing.





12. Using Installer C-4213 (2) and a press (1), install differential bearing (3) to ring gear side of the differential.





13. Using Installer MD998911 (1) and a press, install the large pinion bearing to the pinion shaft.





14. Using Installer 9723 (1) and a press, install the small pinion bearing to the pinion shaft.
