16. Put the ring gear onto the differential case and start
the new capscrews into the gear with your fingers.
Tighten the screws, alternating back and forth across
the gear to allow the gear to be pulled evenly into place.
Tighten the cap screws to a torque of 45 - 65 ft-lb (6.2 -
9.0 KgM) (Fig. 50).
17. When installing new differential bearings, reuse the
or
iginal shims or use new shims of the same thickness.
Press the bearing onto the differential case. If a new
differential case is being installed, start with a .020 inch
pack of shims under each differential bearing. Shims are
available in .003, .005, .010, and .030 inch sizes
(Fig. 51).
18. Assemble new differential bearing cups to differen-
t
ial bearing cones. Seat differential assembly with drive
gear on proper side of carrier into carrier bearing crad-
les.
NOTE: T
he Reelmaster 223-D/5100-D/5300-D applica-
tion requires that the ring gear teeth face toward the spur
gear cover.
The bearing cradles are designed to apply a slight
pr
eload to the bearings. It is important to push both of
the bearing assemblies simultaneously into their
saddles.
Install the bearing caps into their original position as
pr
eviously marked. Tighten the cap screws to a torque
of 30 - 45 ft-lb (4.1-6.2 KgM) (Fig. 52).
