PINION BEARING CUPS

Do
not
remove
the
pinion bearing

cups from
the
carrier casting unless

the cups
are
worn
or
damaged.

If
the
pinion bearing cups
are to be

replaced, drive them
out of the
carrier

casting with
a
drift.
Tap on the
side

opposite
the cup. Use
care
to
prevent

the cups from cocking
in the
carrier.

Install
the new
cups with
the
tool

shown
in Fig. 15.
Make sure
the
cups

are properly seated
in
their bores.
If a

0.0015-inch feeler gauge
can be
insert-

ed between
a cup and the
bottom
of

its bore
at any
point around
the cup,

the
cup is not
properly seated.

Whenever
the
cups
are
replaced,
the

cone
and
roller assemblies should also

be replaced.
DRIVE PINION
AND

GEAR
SET

Individual differences
in
machining

the carrier casting
and the
gear
set re-

quire
a
shim between
the
pinion rear

bearing cone
and the
pinion gear
to

locate
the
pinion
for
correct tooth

contact with
the
ring gear.

When replacing
a
ring gear
and pin-

ion
it
should
be
noted that
the
original

factory installed shim
is of the
correct

thickness
to
adjust
for
individual vari-

ations
in
both
the
carrier casting
di-

mension
and in the
original gear
set

dimension; therefore,
to
select
the cor-

rect shim thickness
for the new
gear

set
to be
installed, follow these steps:

1.
Use a
micrometer
to
measure

the thickness
of the
original shim
re-

moved from
the
axle
and use the
same

thickness upon installation
of the re-

placement carrier assembly
or
drive

pinion.
If
further shim change
is nec-

essary,
it
will
be
indicated
in the
tooth

pattern check.

2.
If the
original shim
is
lost,
sub-

stitute
a
nominal shim
for the
original

and
use the
tooth pattern check
to de-

termine
if
further shim changes
are re-

quired. Nominal shim thicknesses
is

indicated
in
Part
4-3,
Specifications.

A
new
ring gear
and
pinion should

always
be
installed
in an
axle
as a

matched
set
(never separately).
Be

sure
the
same identifying (matching)

number, painted, appears
on the
bolt

hole face
of the
ring gear
and on the

head
of the
drive pinion
(Fig. 16).

3.
After determining
the
correct

shim thickness
as
explained
in the

foregoing steps, install
the new
pinion

and ring gear
as
outlined under
As-

sembly which follows
in
this section.

DIFFERENTIAL CASE,

BEARINGS,
AND
DRIVEN

GEAR

If
the
ring gear runout check
(be-

fore disassembly) exceeded specifica-

tions,
the
condition
may be
caused
by

a warped gear,
a
defective case,
or ex-

cessively worn differential bearings.

To determine
the
cause
of
excessive

runout, proceed
as
follows:

1.
Press
the
original bearings
on

the one-piece differential case hubs

without
the
ring gear installed.

2.
Place
the
differential bearing

cups
on the
bearing cone
and
roller

and
set the
differential case
in the car-

rier.

3.
Install
the
matched (marked)

bearing caps
and
adjusting nuts
as

outlined
in
steps
11
thru
14
under
In-

stallation
of
Drive Pinion
and
Differ-

ential Case which follows
in
this
sec-

tion.

4.
Tighten
the
left adjuster
nut
until

it just touches
the
bearing
cup
then

tighten
the nut two
notches beyond

the point where
it
first contacts
the

bearing
cup.

case several revolutions in each direc-

tion while the bearings are loaded to

seat the bearings in their cups. This

step is important.

5. Again loosen the right nut to re-

lease the preload. Check to see that

the left nut contacts the bearing cup.

Using the dial indicator set-up shown

in Fig. 13, Part 4-1, adjust the preload

to 0.008 to 0.012 case spread for new

bearings or 0.005 to 0.008 for the

original bearings, if re-used.

6. Check the runout of the differen-

tial case flange with a dial indicator.

If the runout does not now exceed

specifications, install a new ring gear,

if the runout still exceeds specifica-

tions,
the ring gear is true and the

trouble is due to either a defective

casting or worn bearings.

7.
Remove the differential case

from the carrier and remove the side

bearings from the case.

8. Install new bearings on the case

hubs,
and again install the differential

assembly in the carrier without the

ring gear.

9. Check the case runout again with

the new bearings. If the runout is now

within limits, the old bearings were

excessively worn. Use the new bear-

ings for assembly. If the runout is still

excessive, the case is defective and

should be replaced.

ASSEMBLY OF AXLE

Refer to Part 4-1 of this Shop

Manual for Cleaning and Inspection

procedures before starting assembly

operations.

ASSEMBLY OF

DIFFERENTIAL CASE

1.
Place the ring gear on the differ-

ential case. Install the retaining bolts

and torque them to specification.

2.
If the differential bearings were

removed, press them on as shown in

Fig. 17.

3.
Insert the pinion gear shaft lock

bolt into the case (loosely).

INSTALLATION OF DRIVE

PINION AND

DIFFERENTIAL CASE

1.
Place the shim(s) and pinion rear

bearing cone on the pinion shaft.

Press the bearing and shim(s) firmly

against the pinion shaft shoulder (Fig.

18).

2.
Place a new pinion bearing pre-

load (collapsible) spacer on the pinion

shaft.

3.
Lubricate the pinion rear bearing

with axle lubricant.

4.
Lubricate the pinion front bear-

ing with axle lubricant. Lubricate the

pinion front bearing cone and place it

in the carrier housing.

5.
Install a new oil seal in the car-

rier casting (Fig. 19).

6. Insert the drive pinion shaft (U-

joint) flange into the pinion seal and

hold it firmly against the pinion front

bearing cone. From the rear of the

carrier casting, insert the pinion shaft

into the flange.

7.
Apply a small amount of lubri-

cant to the washer side of the flange

nut and start the nut. Use a new nut.

Hold the flange with the tool shown in

Fig. 12 and tighten the pinion shaft

nut. As the pinion shaft nut is tight-

ened, the pinion shaft is pulled into

the front bearing cone and into the

flange.

As the pinion shaft is pulled into

the front bearing cone, pinion shaft

end play is reduced. While there is

still end play in the pinion shaft, the

flange and cone will be felt to bottom.

This indicates that the bearing cone

and flange have bottomed on the col-

lapsible spacer.

From this point, a much greater

torque must be applied to turn the

pinion shaft nut, since the spacer must

be collapsed. From this point, also,

the nut should be tightened very slow-

ly and the pinion bearing preload play

checked often, so that the pinion bear-

ing preload does not exceed the speci-

fied limits.

If the pinion shaft nut is tightened

to the point that pinion bearing pre-

load exceeds the limits, the pinion

shaft must be removed and a new col-

lapsible spacer installed. Do not de-

crease the preload by loosening the

pinion shaft nut. This will remove the

compression between the pinion front

and rear bearing cones and the col-

lapsible spacer and may permit the

front bearing cone to turn on the pin-

ion shaft.

8. As soon as there is preload on

the bearings, turn the pinion shaft in

both directions several times to seat

the bearing rollers.

9. Adjust the bearing preload to

specification. Measure the preload

with the tool shown in Fig. 20.

10.
Apply a thin coating of lubri-

cant on the bearing bores so that the

differential bearing cups will move

easily.

11.
Place the cups on the bearings

and set the differential case assembly

in the carrier casting.

If the gear set is of the non-hunting

or partial non-hunting type, assemble

the differential case and ring gear as-

sembly in the carrier so that the

marked tooth on the pinion indexes

between the marked teeth on the ring

gear as shown in Fig. 49, Part 4-2.

In almost every case of improper

assembly (gears assembled out of

time),
the noise level and probability

of failure will be higher than they

would be with properly assembled

gears.

sembly in the carrier without regard

to the matching of any particular gear

teeth.

12.
Slide the case assembly along

the bores until a slight amount of

backlash is felt between the gear teeth.

Hold the differential case in place.

13.
Set the adjusting nuts in the

bores so that they just contact the

bearing cups.

14.
Carefully position the bearing

caps on the carrier casting. Match the

marks made when the caps were re-

moved (Fig. 21).

15.
Install the bearing cap bolts

and lockwashers. As the bolts are

tightened, turn the adjusting nut with

the tool shown in Fig. 21.

16.
If the adjusting nuts do not turn

freely as the cap bolts are tightened,

remove the bearing caps and again in-

spect for damaged threads or incor-

rectly positioned caps. Tightening the

bolts to the specified torque is done to

be sure that the cups and adjusting

©All limited slip and Traction-Lok axles use ESW-M2C-104-A lubricant (C6AZ-19580-C).

All conventional axles use ESW-M2C-105-A lubricant (C6AZ-19580-B).

©Approximate refill capacity-Actual lubricant capacities are determined
by
filling
to
bottom
of
filler hole.

©To check these axles, the plug should be backed
out
slowly.
If
seepage occurs around the threads, the plug should
be
turned back
in

immediately to avoid any drainage. This indicates that the specified amount
of
lubricant
is
present
in
the axle.
