9.41. Install the right inboard axle bearing in the hous-
ing.
9.42. Stick the anticipated amount of shim washers to
the right side differential bearing with grease.
Shims are available in thicknesses from .005” to
.025” (.127mm to .635) in .005” increments. Use
as required to achieve correct back lash. See
Figure 9.42.
NOTE: Make sure the washers are all aligned
with the spacer sleeve in the right side differen-
tial bearing. The inside diameter of the spacer
sleeve and washers is .780” (1.98 cm). A typical
deep 9/16” (14 mm) socket can be used as a
pilot tool.
9.43. Position the differential in the right side axle
housing. See Figure 9.43.
9.44. Position wood blocks or similar supports (base
plates from a hydraulic press work well) to hold
the flange on the outer end of the axle housing
about 1.25” (3.175 cm) above the work bench.
This will provide a stable support for the assem-
bly, and hold the axle shaft in place.
9.45. Install the right side axle shaft (with outer bear-
ing, washer, and pinion gear) into the right side
axle housing from beneath. See Figure 9.45.
9.46. Carefully lift the axle housing onto the work
bench. See Figure 9.46.
• Maintain a vertical position while moving the
assembly.
• Support the axle shaft with one hand during
movement.
