1. REAR DIFFERENTIAL
When replacing a rear differential assembly, select the correct one according to the following table.
NOTE:
•Using a different rear differential assembly will cause the drive train and tires to drag or emit abnormal
noise.
•For option code, refer to “ID” section.
2. IDENTIFICATION
Identification label positions are shown in the fol-
lowing figures. For details concerning identification,
refer to the “ID” section.
3. REAR DIFFERENTIAL GEAR OIL
Recommended gear oil:
GL–5 (75W–90)
NOTE:
Each oil manufacturer has its base oil and addi-
tives. Thus, do not mix two or more brands.

C: CAUTION
•Wear work clothing, including a cap, protective goggles and protective shoes during operation.
•Remove contamination including dirt and corrosion before removal, installation or disassembly.
•Keep the disassembled parts in order and protect them from dust and dirt.
•Before removal, installation or disassembly, be sure to clarify the failure. Avoid unnecessary removal, in-
stallation, disassembly and replacement.
•Be careful not to burn yourself, because each part on the vehicle is hot after running.
•Use SUBARU genuine grease etc. or equivalent. Do not mix gear oil, grease, etc. with those of different
grades or from other manufacturers.
•Be sure to tighten fasteners including bolts and nuts to the specified torque.
•Place shop jacks or rigid racks at the specified points.
•Apply gear oil onto sliding or revolution surfaces before installation.
•Before installing the O-ring or snap ring, apply a sufficient amount of gear oil to avoid damage and defor-
mation.
•Before securing a part on a vise, place cushioning material such as wood blocks, aluminum plate, or cloth
between the part and the vise.
•Avoid damaging the mating surface of the case.

A: INSPECTION
1) Remove the filler plug, and then check the gear
oil. Replace the gear oil if it is contaminated or de-
teriorated. ential Gear Oil.>
2) Check that the gear oil level is up to the bottom
of the filler plug hole. If the level is low, refill up to
the bottom of filler plug.
B: REPLACEMENT
1) Jack–up the vehicle and support it with rigid
racks.
2) Remove the oil drain plug and filler plug, and
drain the gear oil.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to burn your hands, because
gear oil becomes extremely hot after running.
3) Tighten the oil drain plug.
NOTE:
Use a new metal gasket.
Tightening torque:
29 N·m (3.0 kgf-m, 21.7 ft-lb)
4) Fill the differential carrier with gear oil to the bot-
tom of filler plug.
NOTE:
Carefully refill oil while watching the level. Exces-
sive or insufficient oil must be avoided.

6) Push the rear differential to insert the axle shaft
into rear differential.
7) Adjust the transmission jack, if necessary, and
insert the rear differential stud bolt into rear cross-
member bushing properly.
8) After inserting the rear differential stud bolt into
the rear crossmember bushing, lift up the transmis-
sion jack and align the rear differential to the its at-
tachment position.
9) Tighten a new self-locking nut temporarily to rear
crossmember.
10) Remove the band from rear differential. Lift up
the rear differential until the rear differential is sep-
arated from the transmission jack.
11) Install the rear differential front member with a
new self-locking nut.

Adjust the bearing preload between front and rear
bearings with collar and washer. Pinion height ad-
justing washer is not affected by this adjustment.

adjust washer.
NOTE:
If tooth contact (drive pinion, hypoid driven gear) is
normal in the inspection before disassembling, ver-
ify that the washer is not deformed, and then re-use
the used washer.
(5) Insert the ST1 into carrier with the pinion
height adjusting washer and rear bearing cone
fitted onto it.
NOTE:
Use new rear bearing cone.
(6) Install the preload adjusting collar & washer,
front bearing cone, collar, companion flange,
and washer & self-locking nut.

(7) Turn ST1 by hand to seat the bearing, and
measure the initial load and initial torque with a
spring scale while tightening the selflocking nut.
Select the preload adjusting washer and collar
so that the specified preload is obtained when
nut is tightened to the specified torque.
NOTE:
•Use a new self-locking nut.
•Be careful not to give excessive preload.
•When tightening the self-locking nut, lock com-
panion flange with ST2 as shown in the figure.
