(2) Install the bearing race into holder RH and
LH.

DRIFT PUNCH
CAUTION:
Make sure that the oil seal, bearing outer race
and cone are properly assembled.
(3) Install the differential assembly into differen-
tial carrier in the reverse order of disassembly.
NOTE:
Be careful not to hit the teeth against the case.
(4) Temporally tighten the side holder RH and
LH in differential carrier to install.
13) Perform the backlash adjustment between the
hypoid driven gear and drive pinion, and preload
adjustment of differential side bearing.
(1) Turn the drive pinion with ST for better fitting
of differential side bearing.

(2) Screw in the side holder LH until light con-
tact is made with ST.

(3) Back off the side (hypoid driven gear side)
holder approx.1 1/2 teeth of holder, and tighten
the other side holder by approx. 2 teeth (approx.
1 1/2 + 1/2 teeth). [Back off amount of side (hy-
poid driven gear side) holder + 1/2 tooth.]
This + 1/2 tooth gives preload.
(4) Temporarily tighten the lock plate.
NOTE:
Turn over the lock plate to displace the holder 1/2
tooth.
(5) Measure the hypoid driven gear-to-drive
pinion backlash. Set the magnet base on differ-
ential carrier. Align the contact point of dial
gauge with tooth face of hypoid driven gear, and
move hypoid driven gear while holding drive pin-
ion still. Read the value indicated on dial gauge.
NOTE:
If measured backlash is not within specified range,
repeat the procedures for pinion driven gear set
backlash adjustment and differential side bearing
preload adjustment.
Backlash:
0.10 — 0.15 mm (0.0039 — 0.0059 in)
