Assembly

A. SPACER/SIDE GEAR/WASHER/PINION/PINION SHAFT INSTALLATION

1. With the spacers installed on the back of the differential side gears, install the gears in the differential case. When reusing the removed parts, install them in the original positions noted during disassembly. When using new differential side gears, install spacers of medium thinkness 1.0 mm (0.039 in.).

2. Install the washers to the back of the pinion gears. Install the gears in the differential case, and then insert the pinion shaft.

3. Measure the backlash between the side gear a pinion gear. The backlash should be 0.025 to 0.150mm (0.0010 to 0.0059 in.) and the right and left gear pairs should have equal backlash. If the backlash is not within the specified range, disassemble, and reassemble them using spacers selected for correct backlash.

Backlash: 0.025-0.150 mm (0.0010-0.0059 in.)




B. LOCK PIN INSTALLATION

1. Align the lock pin hole in the pinion shaft with that in the case and press fit the lock pin until it's protrusion is 3mm (0.12 in.) or less.

Caution:

1. Do not reuse the lock pin.
2. Do not use a lock pin which requires only 2,000 Nm (440 lbs.) or less force for Installation.




C. BEARING INSTALLATION




D. DRIVE GEAR TIGHTENING

1. Apply automatic transaxle fluid to the bolts and tighten the bolts to the specified torque in the sequence shown in the illustration.
