Rear Differential Backlash Inspection

Rear Differential Backlash Inspection

Connecting battery voltage to either the right or left clutch electromagnetic coils for more than 3 minutes will damage the rear differential.

1. Install the left rear driveshaft, then connect the battery power to terminal No. 1 of the left clutch electromagnetic coil 2P connector (A) and ground to terminal No. 2.

2. Check the backlash of the companion flange (B) with a dial indicator (C).





3. If the backlash is out of standard, replace the rear differential.
