REASSEMBLY
1. ASSEMBLE DIFFERENTIAL CASE
(a) Install the correct thrust washers and side gears.
Refer to the table below, select thrust washers which will
ensure that the backlash is within the specification. Try to
select washers of the same size for both sides.
Standard backlash:
0.05 - 0.20 mm (0.0020 - 0.0079 in.)
Thickness mm (in.)Thickness mm (in.)
1.50 (0.0591)1.65 (0.0650)
1.55 (0.0610)1.70 (0.0669)
1.60 (0.0630)1.75 (0.0689)
(b) Install the thrust washers and side gears in the differential
case.
(c) Install the pinion shaft.
(d) Using a dial indicator, 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.)
If the backlash is not within the specification, install a thrust
washer of different thickness.
(e) Using a pin punch and hammer, install the straight pin
through the case and hole in the pinion shaft.
(f) Stake the differential case.
2. INSTALL RING GEAR ON DIFFERENTIAL CASE
(a) Clean the contact surface of the differential case.
(b) Heat the ring gear in boiling water.
(c) Carefully remove the ring gear from the water.
(d) After the moisture on the ring gear has completely evapo-
rated, quickly install the ring gear to the differential case.
HINT:
Align the matchmarks on the differential case and contact the
ring gear.
(e) Install the 6 set bolts. Tighten each set bolt uniformly, at
a time in succession. Torque the bolts.
Torque: 124 N´m (1,260 kgf´cm, 91 ft´lbf)

3. INSTALL SIDE BEARING
(a) Install the speedometer drive gear to the RH side.
(b) Using SST and a press, install new side bearings to the
both sides of the case.
SST 09350-32014 (09351-32090, 09351-32120)
4. INSPECT DIFFERENTIAL SIDE BEARING PRELOAD
(a) Install the differential case assembly to the transaxle
case.
(b) Install the transmission case.
(c) Install and torque the case bolts.
Torque: 29 N´m (300 kgf´cm, 22 ft´lbf)
(d) Using SST and a torque wrench, measure the preload.
SST 09564-3201 1
Preload (at starting):
New bearing
0.8 - 1.6 N´m (8 - 16 kgf´cm, 6.9 - 13.9 in.´lbf)
Reused bearing
0.5 - 1.0 N´m (5 - 10 kgf´cm, 4.3 - 8.7 in.´lbf)
If the preload is not within the specification, remove the trans-
mission case side outer race of the side bearing with SST (See
page MX-36).
(e) Select another shim.
HINT:
The preload will change by approx. 0.3 - 0.4 N´m (3 - 4 kgf´cm,
2.6 - 3.5 in.´lbf) corresponding to a change of 0.05 mm in shim
thickness.

(4) Start the engine and shift the selector into all posi-
tions from the P position through the L position and
then shift it into the P position.

perature 70 - 80 °C (158 - 176 °F) and add as nec-
essary.

Shift into the D position and while driving with the accelerator pedal held constant at the throttle valve
fully open, check on the following points:
(1) Check to seethat the 1"2 and 2"3 up-shifts take placeand also that the shift points conform
to those shown in the automatic shift schedule (See page SS-28).
EVALUATION
ProblemPossible cause
If there is no 1 - 2 up-shift. Governor valve is defective

 Check ball is defective
(3) Run in the 3rd gear of the D position, check the abnormal noise and vibration.
HINT:
Check for the cause of abnormal noise and vibration must be made with extreme care as they could also
be due to imbalance in the drive shaft, differential, tires and torque converter clutch, etc.
(4) While running in the 3rd gear of the D position, check that the possible kick-down vehicle speed
limits for the 3 " 1 and 3 " 2 kick-down conform to those indicated in the automatic shift sched-
ule (See page SS-28).

(6) While running at about 60 km/h (37 mph) in the 3rd gear of the D position, release your foot from
the accelerator pedal and shift into the L position. Then check if the 2 "1 down-shift point con-
forms to that indicated in the automatic shift schedule (See page SS-28).
(b) Inspect the lock-up mechanism.
