DIFFERENTIAL ASSEMBLY (CONVENTIONAL)
Pre-Disassembly Inspection
1) Secure differential assembly in appropriate holder. Secure
drive pinion from turning. Mount dial indicator on case and check ring
gear backlash at 4 positions. See Fig. 6. Backlash should be .005-.
007" (.13-.18 mm).
2) Remount dial indicator and measure ring gear runout. See
Fig. 7 . On all models, runout should not exceed .002" (.05 mm).
Remount dial indicator and measure pinion gear backlash on models
without limited slip differential. See Fig. 8. Secure side gear from
turning with wedge. Backlash should be 0-.003" (0-.08 mm). Pinion gear\
backlash service limit is .008" (.20 mm).
3) Check gear tooth contact pattern between ring gear and
drive pinion gear. Apply Prussian Blue to both surfaces of ring gear
teeth. Insert brass rod between differential housing and carrier
assembly to provide resistance while turning drive pinion.
4) Turning resistance of drive pinion should be 28-33 INCH
lbs. (2.5-3.0 N.m). Rotate drive pinion until ring gear completes one
revolution. Reverse direction of rotation and return to original
starting point. Check wear pattern. See GEAR TOOTH CONTACT PATTERNS
article in GENERAL INFORMATION.
5) On Montero models with differential lock, connect air
supply hose with pressure gauge and regulator to actuator air pipe.
Apply 4 psi (.28 kg/cm
) of pressure. Using Adapter Shaft (MB990992),
turn side gear on one side of carrier assembly only. Locking mechanism
should engage. To disengage, release air pressure and turn side gear
1/4-1/2 turn.
6) With lock mechanism engaged, measure turning torque of
drive pinion. Turning torque should not be less than 36 ft. lbs. (50
N.m). With lock mechanism disengaged, turning torque should not be
more than 36 ft. lbs. (50 N.m).

pinion gears in differential case. DO NOT install thrust block (if
equipped) at this time.
2) Install pinion shaft without lock pin. Check pinion and
side gear backlash. Install wooden wedge to lock side gears. See
Fig. 8 . Using dial indicator, measure gear backlash. Backlash should
be .0004-.0030" (.010-.080 mm). Service limit is .008" (.20 mm).
3) Adjust backlash by using different side gear spacers.
Ensure both sides are equally shimmed. Install thrust block (if
equipped) once correct backlash is obtained. Install pinion shaft lock
pin from ring gear side of carrier housing. Securely stake pin in 2
places. Ensure adhesive is removed from ring gear mounting bolts and
gear mounting surface. Clean internal threads with tap.
4) Ensure alignment marks on differential case and ring gear

removal, see DIFFERENTIAL ASSEMBLY (CONVENTIONAL) .
Disassembly
1) Once ring gear is removed, loosen carrier housing screws
in diagonal pattern. Separate cases and remove components. See Fig. 10
. Maintain parts in order of disassembly. Clean all parts in new
solvent.
2) Inspect condition of friction and spring plates and
friction discs. Replace disc and/or plates if worn or heat damaged.
Distortion of discs will cause incorrect clutch pressure. Scratches,
nicks or burrs on components can be repaired with an oil stone.
3) Discs must be flat and free of distortion. Check discs on
surface plate with dial indicator. Maximum warpage of friction plate
or disc is .003" (.08 mm). Inspect thickness of discs and plates.
Thickness limit between discs and plates is .004" (.10 mm).
