" FA DIFFERENTIAL GEAR BACKLASH ADJUSTMENT
Follow the procedures below to adjust the differential gear
backlash.
1. Assemble the side gears, side gear spacers, pinion gears
and pinion washers into the differential case.
2. Temporarily install the pinion shaft.
NOTE
Do not drive in the lock pin yet.
3. Insert a wedge between the side gear and the pinion
shaft to lock the side gear.
4. Measure the differential gear backlash with a dial indicator
on the pinion gear.
Standard value: 0 ± 0.076 mm
Limit: 0.2 mm
Repeat the steps above for the other pinion gear.
5. If the differential gear backlash exceeds the limit, adjust
the backlash by changing the side gear spacers.
6. If adjustment is not possible, replace the side gears and
pinion gears as a set.
7. Confirm that the differential gear backlash is correct, and
that the differential gear turns smoothly.
" GA LOCK PIN INSTALLATION
1. Align the pinion shaft lock pin hole with the differential
case lock pin hole, and drive in the lock pin.
2. Stake the lock pin with a punch at two points.
" HA DRIVE GEAR INSTALLATION
1. Clean the drive gear attaching bolts.
2. Remove the adhesive adhered to the threaded holes
of the drive gear by turning a tap (M10 x 1.25), and then
clean the threaded holes by applying compressed air.
