AX±93
(d) Check the side gear backlash.
Measure the side gear backlash while holding one pinion
gear toward the case.
Standard backlash:
0.05 ± 0.20 mm (0.0020 ± 0.0079 in.)
Referring to the table below, select thrust washers which
will ensure that the backlash is within specification. Try to
select washers of the same size for both sides.
Thrust washer thickness

0.95 (0.0374)1.10 (0.0433)
1.00 (0.0394)1.15 (0.0453)
1.05 (0.0413)1.20 (0.0472)
If the backlash is not within specification, install a thrust
washer of a different thickness.
(e) Using a hammer and punch, drive the lock pin through the
case and hole in the pinion shaft.
(f) Stake the differential case.
5. INSTALL SIDE BEARINGS
(a) Install the speedometer drive gear onto the differential
case.
(b) Using SST and a press, press in the RH side bearing onto
the differential case.
SST 09350±32014 (09351±32090, 09351±32120)

AX±94
(c) Using SST and a press, press in the LH side bearing onto
the differential case.
SST 09710±28020 (09710±08040)
6. INSTALL RING GEAR
(a) Clean the contact surface of the differential case.
(b) Heat the ring gear to about 100 °C (212 °F) in an oil bath.
(c) Carefully remove the ring gear from the water.
NOTICE: Do not heat the ring gear above 110 °C (230 °F).
(d) Clean the contact surface of the ring gear with cleaning
solvent.
(e) Quickly install the ring gear on the differential case.
(f) Install new locking plates and set bolts. When the ring
gear has cooled sufficiently, tighten the set bolts uniformly
a little at a time. Torque the bolts.
Torque: 97 N´m (985 kgf´cm, 71 ft´lbf)
(g) Using a hammer and drift punch, stake the locking plates.
HINT: Stake one claw flush with the flat surface of the nut.
For the claw contacting the protruding portion of the nut,
stake only the half on the tightening side.
