Assembly of Driven Pinion Bearing Cage

ASSEMBLY OF DRIVEN PINION BEARING CAGE

HINT: Coat all of the sliding and rotating surface with gear oil before assembly.




1. INSTALL DRIVEN PINION BEARING CAGE
a. Install a new bearing spacer.

HINT: Insert the spacer with the smaller facing upwards.




b. Using SST and a press, install the rear bearing.

HINT: Press down until the pinion can just move slightly up and down.

SST 09316-60010 (09316-00020)




2. ADJUST DRIVEN PINION PRELOAD
a. Using SST, install and torque the new lock nut.
SST 09326-20011
Torque: 1,000 kg-cm (72 ft-lb, 90 N.m)

HINT: Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 50 cm (19.69 in.).




b. Using SST and a spring tension gauge, measure the driven pinion preload.

HINT: Turn the driven pinion right and left two or three times to allow the bearings to settle.

Preload (at starting):
New bearing 1.8 - 2.9 kg (4.0 - 6.4 lb, 17.6 - 28.4 N)
Reused bearing 0.9 - 1.4 kg (2.0 - 3.1 lb, 8.8 - 13.7 N)

- If preload is greater than specification, replace the bearing spacer.
- If preload is less than specification, retighten the nut 5 - 10° at a time until the specified preload is reached.

If the maximum torque is exceed while retightening the nut, replace the bearing spacer and repeat the preload procedure. Do not back off the pinion nut to reduce the preload.

Maximum torque: 2,200 kg-cm (159 ft-lb, 216 N.m)

3. STAKE LOCK NUT
