REAR FINAL DRIVE
10. Press the side bearing inner races into the differential case
using Tools.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse side bearing inner race.
11. Install the differential case assembly with the side bearing outer races into the gear carrier.
12. Measure the side bearing preload torque. If necessary, select the appropriate side bearing adjusting washers. Refer to "Side
Bearing Preload Torque".
13. Insert the selected left and right side bearing adjusting washers in place between the side bearings and gear carrier.
14. Install the side bearing caps with the matching marks aligned and tighten the side bearing cap bolts to the specified torque.
Refer to "COMPONENTS".
15. Check and adjust the drive gear runout, tooth contact, drive gear to drive pinion backlash, and total pre- load torque. Refer to "Drive Gear Runout", "Tooth Contact", "Backlash" and "Total Preload Torque".
Recheck the above items.
16. Install the side flanges. Refer to "Side Flange". Tool number A: KV38100200 (J-26233)
B: ST33081000 ( — )
