9) Subtract dimension "H" from dimension "I". See Fig. 8.
This is the clearance between thrust washer and differential case.
Page 280 of 1333
Thrust washer must be changed to obtain correct specification. Correct
clearance is .002-.008" (.05-.20 mm).
10) Select thrust washers to obtain correct clearance from
pressure ring face and end of thrust washer surface. Thrust washers
are available in 3 sizes.
11) Apply gear oil and friction modifier to all components.
Install components in differential case. Ensure assembly order and
direction of clutch components are correct. See Fig. 9.

12) Install differential case cover with reference marks
aligned. Tighten screws to specification in several steps. See TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS table at end of article. Ensure cases contact each
other completely when fully assembled. Check for incorrect clutch
assembly if gap exists.
13) Using Clutch Plate Preload Tool (MB990988), Shaft
(MB990989) and torque wrench, measure starting torque. Slightly rotate\
unit before measuring starting torque. See Fig. 10.

14) Starting torque must be within specification. See
STARTING TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table. Ensure adhesive is removed from
ring gear mounting bolts and gear mounting surface. Clean internal
threads with tap.
15) Ensure alignment marks on differential case and ring gear
are aligned. Apply Loctite 271 to bolts and install ring gear on
differential case. Tighten bolts in diagonal sequence to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table.

DRIVE PINION HEIGHT
1) Install pinion bearing races in carrier. Ensure races are
fully seated. Install pinion height gauge and pinion bearings. Use
Pinion Height Gauge (MB990901) for all others. See Fig. 10. DO NOT
install oil seal.
2) Using torque wrench, measure pinion rotating torque.
Gradually tighten pinion height gauge to increase rotating torque to
3.5-4.3 INCH lbs. (.40-.48 N.m).
3) Install cylinder gauge in side bearing seats. Ensure flat
areas are aligned and gauge contacts side bearing seat firmly. See
Fig. 11 . Select adjusting shim with same thickness as gap between
cylinder gauge and pinion height gauge.
4) Use minimum amount of adjusting shims. Install selected
Page 283 of 1333
1) Install drive pinion in differential carrier. Install
spacer, pinion front shim(s) and front pinion bearing. DO NOT install
oil seal. Install pinion flange, washer and retaining nut. Tighten nut
to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table.
2) Check pinion rotating torque. Rotating torque must be
within specification. Correct specification is 3.5-4.3 INCH lbs. (.40-
.48 N.m) without oil seal. Adjust rotating torque by replacing drive
pinion front shims or spacer.
3) Once correct rotating torque is obtained, install oil
seal. Coat seal lip with grease. Install pinion flange so alignment
marks are correct. Apply light coat of grease to contact area of
pinion flange washer.
4) Install new retaining nut. Recheck pinion rotating torque.
Rotating torque must be within specification.
SIDE BEARING
1) Press side bearings onto differential case. Install outer
races. Install differential case into differential carrier. Align
bearing cap index marks, and snug carrier cap bolts. Ensure outer
races and bearing caps are installed in original location. Tighten
bearing cap bolts finger tight.
2) Install side bearing nuts. Tighten bearing cap bolts. See
TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table. Rotate bearing nuts in and out until
rotation is smooth. Temporarily tighten side bearing nuts to preload
side bearings. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table. Adjust ring gear
backlash.
RING GEAR BACKLASH
1) Lock drive pinion in place. Using dial indicator, check
ring gear backlash at heel of ring gear tooth. Measure at 4 locations
of ring gear. Gear backlash must be within specification. See RING
GEAR BACKLASH SPECIFICATIONS table.
RING GEAR BACKLASH SPECIFICATIONS

Application In. (mm)
2.4L ....................... .0043-.0063 (.109-.160)
3.0L ....................... .0051-.0071 (.130-.180)
\
\
\
\
\
2) If backlash is less than specification, loosen side
bearing nut at back of ring gear and tighten side bearing nut on tooth
side of ring gear by same amount. If backlash is beyond specification,
loosen side bearing nut at tooth side of ring gear and tighten side
bearing nut at back of ring gear by same amount.
3) After adjusting backlash, tighten both side bearing nuts
half the distance between center of 2 neighboring holes on side
bearing nut. Recheck backlash. Ensure bearing cap bolts are tightened
to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table.
4) Lock plates are of 2 designs for hole location of side
bearing nuts. Install proper type lock plate. Tighten lock plate bolt
to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table. Check gear tooth
contact using paint impression method. See GEAR TOOTH CONTACT PATTERNS
in this article.
RING GEAR RUNOUT
Using dial indicator, measure runout at back side of ring
gear. Runout must be within .002" (.05 mm). If runout is excessive,
change ring gear-to-differential case mounting position. Recheck

than .010" (.25 mm) from tip. Chamfer sharp edge of reground valve
tip. Recheck valve stem installed height.
VALVE STEM OIL SEALS
Valve stem oil seals must be installed on valve stem. See
Fig. 2 . Seals are needed due to pressure differential at the ends of
valve guides. Atmospheric pressure above intake guide, combined with
manifold vacuum below guide, causes oil to be drawn into the cylinder.
Exhaust guides also have pressure differential created by
exhaust gas flowing past the guide, creating a low pressure area. This
low pressure area draws oil into the exhaust system.
Replacement (On Vehicle)
Mark rocker arm or overhead cam components for location.
Remove rocker arm components or overhead cam components. Components
must be installed in original location. Remove spark plugs. Valve stem
oil seals may be replaced by holding valves against seats using air
pressure.
Air pressure must be installed in cylinder using an adapter
for spark plug hole. An adapter can be constructed by welding air hose
connection to spark plug body with porcelain removed.
Install adapter in spark plug hole. Apply a minimum of 140
psi (9.8 kg/cm
) to adapter. Air pressure should hold valve closed. If
air pressure does not hold valve closed, check for damaged or bent
valve. Cylinder head must be removed for service.
Using valve spring compressor, compress valve springs. Remove
valve locks. Carefully release spring compressor. Remove retainer or
rotator and valve spring. Remove valve stem oil seal.
If oversized valves have been installed, oversized oil seals
must be used. Coat valve stem with engine oil. Install protective
sleeve over end of valve stem. Install new oil seal over valve stem
and seat on valve guide. Remove protective sleeve. Install spring
seat, valve spring and retainer or rotator. Compress spring and
install valve locks. Remove spring compressor. Ensure valve locks
are fully seated.
Install rocker arms or overhead cam components. Tighten all
bolts to specification. Adjust valves if required. Remove adapter.
Install spark plugs, valve cover and gasket.
VALVE SPRING INSTALLED HEIGHT
Valve spring installed height should be checked during
reassembly. Measure height from lower edge of valve spring to the
upper edge. DO NOT include valve spring seat or retainer. Distance
must be within specifications. If valves and/or seats have been
ground, a valve spring shim may be required to correct spring height.
