## Backlash Inspection

1. Measure the backlash by the following procedure.

  (1) Install the left and right drive shafts in the differential component.
  (2) Support the drive shaft on V-blocks as shown in the figure.
  (3) Measure the backlash of both pinion gears.

  • If not within the specification, adjust by selecting and installing thrust washers between the case and the side gears.

  Backlash
  0-0.1 mm {0-0.004 in}

  Caution

  • Use thrust washers with the same thickness on each side.

Thrust washer thickness

mm {in}

2.0 {0.079} | 2.1 {0.083} | 2.2 {0.087}

  • If it exceeds the specification even when a 2.2 mm {0.087 in} thick thrust washer is used, replace the differential component.
