lbs.).
(If a

press
is not
available,
two 7/16
inch

bolts
and
nuts
can be
used
in the
ring

gear mounting holes
(one on
each

side)
to
compress
the
case halves
to-
gether
and
overcome pre-load spring

tension.) Then, while
the
case
is
still

under pressure, loosen
the two

1.
Place the inner side gear and

thrust washer in the differential case

(Fig. 52). Lubricate all parts liberally

with limited-slip axle lubricant during

assembly.

2.
With a soft-faced hammer, drive

the pinion shaft into the case only far

enough to retain a pinion thrust wash-

er and pinion gear.

3.
Place the second pinion and

thrust washer in position and drive

the pinion shaft into place. Carefully

line up the pinion shaft lock in holes.

4.
Install the pinion shaft lock pin.

The lock pin must not extend beyond

the surface of the case.

5. Insert two 2-inch 7/16 (NF)

bolts through the differential case

flange, and thread them three or four

turns into the ring gear as a guide in

aligning the ring gear bolt holes. Press

or tap the ring gear into position.

6. Clamp the differential case in a

Plate Installation

Prior to clutch plate installation,

the friction bonded plates must be

soaked in C6AZ-19570-C (ESW-

M2C-104-A) differential lubricant for

approximately 1/2 hour. In addition,

the differential lubricant must be lib-

erally applied to all components to

be assembled.

1.
Place the clutch hub into posi-

tion in a soft-jawed vise.

2.
First, install a steel clutch plate

in the cavity of the differential case

opposite the ring gear and then a

bonded friction plate (Fig. 53). Any

tab on the steel plates can be inserted

into any cavity in the differential case,

however when the first steel plate is

inserted the others must be placed in

the same manner (Fig. 54) so the tabs

with slots line up. Install the remain-

ing plates: a steel plate, bonded fric-

tion plate, a steel plate, bonded fric-

tion plate and lastly a steel plate.

Make sure the bonded friction plate

inner-spline teeth properly engage the

hub spline.procarmanuals.com

3.
Center
the
Belleville spring
on

the clutch pack (spring concave-side

facing downward
on the
pack)
to pre-

vent trapping
the
spring between
the

left
and
right handcase
in an
eccentric

position
(Fig. 54).
Improper location

of
the
Belleville spring will cause
ex-

tremely high torque
and
differential

chatter.
Be
sure
the
slots
in the
rabbit

ears
of the
steel plates
are in
proper

alignment.

4.
Carefully
set the
differential case

cover over
the
right hand case
(Fig.

55).
At
this point,
no
force
or
pressure

should
be
applied
to the
cover.
The

cover contains
two 3/16
inch holes
by

which
the
clutch plates
can be
proper-

ly aligned. Insert
the
shank ends
of
two
1/8
inch drill bits into
the
holes,

and work
the
drill bits back-and forth

until
the
plates
are
centered
(Fig. 55).

When
the
clutch plates
are
centered,

the weight
of the
cover will cause
it to

fall into position. Remove
the
drill

bits.

5.
Install
the
ring gear
to
differen-

tial case bolts,
and
tighten them even-

ly
and
alternately across
the
diameter

of
the
ring gear. Tighten
the
bolts
to

specification.

6. Prior
to
installation
of the

limited-slip differential into
the ve-

hicle,
a
differential torque check must

be made. Check
the
torque required
to

rotate

FIG. 56—Checking Differential

Torque

High Torque

a. Insufficient lubricant on the

clutch plates.

b.
A clutch plate wedged in be-

tween the case halves.

c. An improperly centered Belleville

spring.

Low Torque

a. Weak Belleville spring.
b.
Improper amount of clutch

plates installed.

Under no circumstances should the

Belleville spring be ground down to

reduce torque. The torque required to

keep the side gear turning with new

clutch plates is 155 to 195 ft-lbs. On

reused clutch plates, the torque re-

quired is 75 ft-lbs minimun.

7.
If the differential bearings have

been removed, press them on as

shown in Figs. 49 and 50.

8. Install the side bearings on the

differential case, and install the case

in the carrier as described in steps 7

through 16 under Assembly and In-

stallation of Conventional Differential

Case. Adjust and check backlash be-

tween the ring gear and pinion as di-

rected under Differential Bearing Pre-

load Adjustments.

3.
Install the pinion thrust washers

and place the pinion gears on the side

gear; aligning the holes in the washers

and gears with the holes in the case.

4.
Install the center block so that

the shaft holes are aligned with the

holes in the pinion gears and case.

The center block has two machined

sides and two rough sides.

5.
With a brass drift, drive in the

long pinion shaft from the outside of

the case aligning the lock pin holes in

the shaft with the holes in the case.

The center block should be positioned

so the long shaft is driven through the

rough side and short shafts driven

through the machined side (Fig. 57).

6. With a suitable drift, install the

shaft lock pins. Make sure the pinion

and side gears move freely.

7.
Place the four pre-load springs in

the holes provided in the center block.

8. Position a pre-load plate over the

four springs, making sure the springs

are properly seated. The pre-load

plate straddles the center block over

its narrower or machined width.

9. Mount the differential cover in a

soft jawed vise or holding fixture.

10.
Insert shim(s) of 0.050 total

thickness in the cover cavity.

11.
Install the composite plate (fric-

tion material on one side and steel on

the opposite) on the back side of the

clutch hub with the friction material

against the hub; next, install a friction

plate, then steel, friction, stee, fric-

tion, steel, friction, and lastily a steel

plate (Figures 3 and 58). When new

clutch plates are used, soak the plates

in Ford Hypoid Lubricant (Ford Part

No.
C6AZ-19580-C), or equivalent lu-

bricant, for approximately 30 minutes

before installation.

12.
Place the clutch hub with the

clutch plates into the clutch ear cavi-

ties in the differential cover. Make

sure that the splines on the last fric-

ion plate are engaged on the hub.

13.
Obtain locally a 5/8 inch x

2 1/2 inch or 9/16 inch x 2 1/2

inch bolt, nut and two I 1/2 inch

outside diameter flat washers approx.

1/8 inch in thickness. These parts are

required to compress the clutch pack

in order to obtain the proper shim

selection.

Install a flat washer on the bolt,

and place the bolt through the clutch

hub.
Hold the bolt in position and

turn the cover over. Place a flat wash-

er on the bolt and then install the nut.

Be sure the washers are centered, and

torque the nut 10 to 15 ft-lbs (Fig.

59).

14.
Place the shim template tool

(Ford Tool No. T68P-4946-A) in the

clutch hub. Some clearance should beprocarmanuals.com

observed between the shim tool and

the cover-to-case mating surface.

Using a feeler gauge, determine the

exact amount of clearance. Refer to

the shim pack thickness chart specifi-

cations which will indicate the correct

amount of shim(s) to subtract from

the 0.050 shim originally installed. In

order to correctly select the proper

shim(s), the shim template tool and

the chart must be used.

15.
After the proper shim selection

is determined, remove the bolt, nut

and flat washers. If it is necessary to

revise the shim thickness, remove the

clutch hub and clutch plates.

16.
Install the selected shim(s) in

the cover cavity, reinstall the compo-

nents as outlined in Steps 11 and 12.

17.
Install the four steel clutch ear

guides and side gear.

18.
Place both assemblies in a

press,
and press the two halves togeth-

er; then, insert the two Allen or Phil-

lips head screws, and tighten evenly

until tight. If a press is not available,

any two stock bolts and nuts may be

used opposite each other in the ring

gear retaining holes to compress both

halves.

19.
Install the ring gear and ring

gear bolts and washers. Tighten evenly

and alternately across the diameter of

the ring gear. Torque the bolts to

65-80 ft-lbs.

20.
Prior to installation of the tor-

que sensitive locking differential into a

vehicle, a bench torque check must be

made. Check the torque required to

rotate one side gear while the other is

held stationary (Fig. 56). The initial

break-away torque may exceed 250

ft-lbs.
The rotating torque required to

keep the side gear turning with new

clutch plates is 100 to 250 ft-lbs. With

re-used clutch plates, the minimum

torque required is 40 ft-lbs. (The tor-

que may fluctuate 10-40 ft-lbs.).

DRIVE SHAFT TESTS

DRIVE LINE BALANCE CHECK

If detailed parts
of the
drive shaft

are replaced
and
shaft vibration
is en-

countered after installation, disconnect

the shaft
at the
slip yoke. Rotate
the

slip yoke
180
degrees; then, reconnect

the shaft
to the
slip yoke.
If the
vibra-

tion persists, disconnect
the
shaft
at

the rear axle companion flange.
Ro-

tate
the
companion flange
180
degrees

and reconnect
the
shaft
to the
flange.
DRIVE LINE ANGLE CHECK

Vibration
or
"shudder" which
is no-

ticeable either
on
fast acceleration
or

when coasting, using
the
engine
for a

brake,
may be
caused
by the
rear axle

housing being loose
on the
rear

springs
or by
improper pinion angle.

Refer
to
Group
3,
Part
2 for
pinion

angle checking procedures.
If the
rear

axle U-bolts (Fairlane, Montego,

Mustang, Cougar, Falcon models
only)
are
loose, torque
the
nuts
to

specification.

DRIVE SHAFT RUNOUT CHECK

Using
a
dial indicator, check
the

runout
at
each
end and in the
middle

of
the
driveshaft.
The
rear check

should
be
made
on the
small tube
sec-

tion
of the
shaft between
the
balance

weights
and the
yoke welds. Drive-

shaft runout should
not
exceed 0.035

inch
at any one
point.

DESCRIPTION

The drive shaft
is the
means
of

transferring power from
the
engine,

through
the
transmission,
to the dif-
ferential
in the
rear axle,
and
then
to

the rear wheels.
The

FLYWHEEL HOUSING ALIGNMENT

Alignment of the flywheel housing

bore and rear face with the engine

should be checked as a possible cause

of any of the following troubles- ex-

cessive transmission gear wear, ..ans-

mission jumping out of gear, especial-

ly third gear, drive line vibration, ex-

cessive pilot bushing wear, noisy re-

lease bearing, or excessive clutch spin

time.

INSPECTION

1. With the clutch release bearing

removed, install the indicator pilot

tool shown in Fig. 1.

2.
Clean the faces of the flywheel

housing bolt bosses, and remove all

burrs, nicks, and paint from the

mounting face of the housing.

3.
Install the dial indicator on the

pilot and adjust the holder so the but-

ton will contact a circumference just

inside of the transmission mounting

holes.

4.
Push the flywheel forward to re-

move crankshaft end play. Set the dial

indicator face to read zero.

5.
Remove the spark plugs to alle-

viate compression.

6. Pull the engine crankshaft

through one revolution. The crank-

shaft must be held in the forward po-

sition while rotating it.

7. Note the indicator reading and

mark the maximum point of runout

on the face of the housing (Fig. 1).
8. Position the dial indicator to

check bore alignment (Fig. 1). The

bore must be clean and free of burrs,

nicks and paint.

9. Pull the crankshaft through one

revolution. Note the indicator reading

and mark the maximum point of run-

out on the face of the housing as

shown in Fig. 1.

10.
Remove the dial indicator from

the crankshaft and the housing.

11.
Select the Dia-L-lgner pilot

(Fig. 2) which will fit snugly in the

bore of the flywheel housing.

12.
Press the pilot into place on the

locator on the back of the dial.
13.
Position the Dia-L-lgner on the

face of the housing (Fig. 3) with the

pilot in the bore.

14.
Rotate the face runout arrow to

the positive face runout mark on the

housing.

15.
Without moving the face runout

arrow, rotate arrow A until it is at the

negative bore reading.

16.
Slide arrow A to register the

amount of bore runout on the .010-

line of the white scale. Use the

scale No. to coincide with the pilot

being used.

17.
Rotate arrow B until it points

in the direction of the face runout

arrow and its center line is parallel to

the center line of the face runout

arrow.

18.
Determine the amount of the

face runout on the B arrow scale.

19.
The value of the circular line

beneath the amount of face runout

will be the desired reading. If the

reading is in excess of 0.014 inch the

housing alignment is unacceptable.

20.
Remove the Dia-L-lgner gauge

from the flywheel housing.

21.
Install the spark plugs and con-

nect the wires.

ENGINE IN VEHICLE

Since any change in face alignment

will change bore alignment, it may be

possible to correct bore alignment by

changing face alignment. Face align-

ment can be changed by shimming be-

tween the flywheel housing and en-

gine.
Fig. 4 shows the type of shim

which can be fabricated.

Not more than 0.010 inch thickness

shims may be used between the fly-

wheel housing and engine. If a 0.010-

inch shim will not bring face and bore

alignment within limits, replace the

flywheel housing.

The shim required is one half the

maximum (—) indicator reading, and

should be located at the point of max-

imum minus (—) indicator reading.

If both the bore and face alignment

are out of limits, shim between the

flywheel housing and engine to bring

face alignment within limits. Check

the bore alignment.

If the bore alignment is out of lim-

its and the face alignment is within

limits,
shim the flywheel housing to

the limit of face misalignment and

check the bore alignment. If it is not

within limits, replace the housing.

ENGINE OUT OF VEHICLE

The same procedure to correct

alignment may be used with the en-

gine out of the vehicle or in the vehi-

cle,
up to the point of replacing the

flywheel housing. If the bore align-

ment cannot be brought within limits

by shimming, follow this procedure:

dure:

1.
Remove the flywheel housing

from the engine and remove the dowel

pins.
Install the flywheel housing and

tighten the attaching bolts.

2.
Install the dial indicator (Fig. 1).

Check the face alignment, and shim as

required to bring face alignment with-

in limits.

3.
Position the indicator to check

the bore alignment. If the bore align-

ment is not within limits, reduce the

tension on the flywheel housing at-

taching bolts so that the housing can

be moved by striking it with a lead

hammer or a block of wood and a

steel hammer.

4.
The lateral alignment should be

brought within limits so that an indi-

cator reading is within limits between

the 9 o'clock and the 3 o'clock posi-

tions on the bore circle. When the lat-

eral alignment is within limits the

housing usually can be moved straight

up or down without disturbing the lat-

eral alignment. When alignment is

within limits, torque the housing bolts

and recheck bore alignment.

5.
If the flywheel housing cannot be

moved enough to bring the alignment

within limits, mark the holes restrict-

ing movement, and then remove the

housing and drill the marked bolt

holes 1/32 inch larger.

6. When the flywheel housing bore

alignment is within limits and the at-

taching bolts are at normal torque,

hand ream the dowel pin holes 1/32

inch larger. Use a straight reamer and

ream from the flywheel housing side.

Oversize dowel pins can be made from

drill rod stock.

7.
Remove the flywheel housing

and then install the oversize dowel

pins in the cylinder block. Complete

the assembly in the usual way.

8. Recheck the flywheel housing

with the Dia-L-lgner gauge to make

sure that the housing is within the spe-

cified limits.procarmanuals.com
