Differential Assembly
Inspection
To establish a starting point before disassembly, inspect 4. Measure the backlash of the ring gear on the differ-
the following: ential carrier using the special tools as shown. After
measuring, remove the dial gauge and turn the dif-
Ring gear backlash ferential carrier one full turn, then remeasure the
Total bearing preload backlash.
Gear tooth contact
Standard: 0.06 - 0.14 mm (0.002 - 0.006 in)
NOTE:
Be sure the differential is at room temperature before The difference between the two measurements taken
inspecting. must not exceed 0.06 mm (0.002 in).
Record the results of the preliminary inspections.
This information will be helpful during reassembly.

Use a dial-type torque wrench on the drive pinion to Gear tooth contact
measure the drive pinion bearing preload (Tp). 8. Remove the differential case cover and differential
carrier. Clean and paint the ring gear teeth lightly and
Standard: 1.42 - 1.91 N-m evenly with Prussian Blue (on both sides of each
(14.5 - 19.5 kgf-cm, 12.6 - 16.9 Ibf-in) tooth).
9. Reinstall the differential carrier and the differential
case cover, then torque the bolts in a crisscross pat-
tern in several steps.
10. Install the special tool as shown, then rotate the
drive pinion in both directions so that the ring gear
rotate one full turn in both directions. During this
operation resistance should be applied to the ring
gear.

7. Reinstall the differential carrier and the differential
case cover, then measure the total bearing preload.
The total bearing preload should exceed the drive
pinion bearing preload (Tp) by:
DRIVE
Standard: PINION
0.94 - 1.07 N-m (9.6 - 10.9 kgf-cm, 8.33 - 9.46 Ibf-in)
Example:
Total bearing preload (from step 7)
- Tp (from step 6)
= 0.94 - 1.07 N-m (9.6 - 10.9 kgf-cm, 8.33 - 9.46 Ibf-in)
11. Remove the differential case cover and the differen-
tial carrier, then check the tooth contact pattern.
