NOTE:
Replace the oil seal and O-ring after adjustment of
drive pinion gear backlash and tooth contact.
1) Remove the O-ring.
2) Remove the oil seal.
NOTE:
Remove the oil seal using a flat tip screwdriver
Do not reuse the oil seal. Prepare a new oil seal.
D: ASSEMBLY
1. DIFFERENTIAL CASE ASSEMBLY
1) Install the differential bevel gear and bevel pin-
ion together with washers, and insert pinion shaft.
NOTE:
Face the chamfered side of washer toward gear.2) Measure the backlash between differential bevel
gear and pinion. If it is not within specifications, in-
stall a suitable washer to adjust it.
NOTE:
Be sure the pinion gear tooth contacts adjacent
gear teeth during measurement.

Standard backlash:
0.13 — 0.18 mm (0.0051 — 0.0071 in)
3) Align the pinion shaft and differential case at
their holes, and drive the straight pin into holes
from the hypoid driven gear side, using ST.
NOTE:
Lock the straight pin after installing.

CAUTION:
Do not apply load in excess of 10 kN (1 ton, 1.1
US ton, 1.0 Imp ton).
NOTE:
Be careful because the roller bearing outer races
are used as a set.

E: INSPECTION
Repair or replace the differential gear in the follow-
ing cases:
The hypoid drive gear and drive pinion shaft
tooth surface are damaged, excessively worn, or
seized.
The roller bearing on the drive pinion shaft has a
worn or damaged roller path.
There is damage, wear, or seizure of the differ-
ential bevel pinion, differential bevel gear, washer,
pinion shaft, and straight pin.
The differential case has worn or damaged slid-
ing surfaces.
1. DIFFERENTIAL BEVEL PINION GEAR
BACKLASH
Measure the backlash between differential bevel
gear and pinion. If it is not within specifications, in-
stall a suitable washer to adjust it.
NOTE:
Be sure the pinion gear tooth contacts adjacent
gear teeth during measurement.

2. HYPOID GEAR BACKLASH
1) Set the ST1, ST2 and ST3. Insert the needle
through transmission oil drain plug hole so that the
needle comes in contact with the tooth surface at a
right angle.

to both sides, move it clockwise and counter clock-
wise to contact tooth, and then read the value of
dial gauge runout.

3. TOOTH CONTACT OF HYPOID GEAR
Check the tooth contact of hypoid gear as follows:
Apply a uniform thin coat of red lead on both tooth
surfaces of 3 or 4 teeth of the hypoid gear. Move
the hypoid gear back and forth by turning the trans-
mission main shaft until a definite contact pattern is
developed on hypoid gear, and judge whether face
contact is correct. If it is inaccurate, make adjust-
ment.
Tooth contact is correct.
F: ADJUSTMENT
1. BEVEL PINION GEAR BACKLASH
1) Disassemble the front differential.
2) Select a different washer from the table and in-
stall.
3) Adjust until the specified value is obtained.
Standard backlash:
0.13 — 0.18 mm (0.0051 — 0.0071 in)
2. HYPOID GEAR BACKLASH
Adjust backlash by turning the holder in right side
case.

NOTE:
Each time holder rotates one tooth, backlash
changes by 0.05 mm (0.0020 in).
3. TOOTH CONTACT OF HYPOID GEAR
1) Adjust until the teeth contact is correct.
2) Check and adjust the teeth contact with following
table.
