Part Number Description Qty
5P-4202 Spanner Wrench 1 Note: The following procedure must be used in order to put the correct amount of preload on the final drive bearings.
Adjust the axle shaft bearing.
Tighten 7I-5000 Ring (2) in order to preload the final drive bearings. Rotate the shaft and rap the sprockets while the 7I-5000 Ring is being tightened.
The final rolling torque should be from 15 to 45 N m (130 to 400 lb in).Procedure for End Play Adjustment
Measure the thickness of housing (4) at the four 12 mm puller holes in the bolt pattern. Average the thickness.Note: Do not install seal (3) at this time.
Remove all the existing shims. Bolt housing (4) in place with four evenly spaced bolts. Tighten the four bolts to 900 100 N m (664 74 lb ft) in order to seat the parts. Loosen the four bolts. Tighten the four bolts to a torque of 20 N m (15 lb ft).
Measure the depth to the differential housing through the four puller holes. Average the four numbers.Note: The housing may have only two puller holes. In order to obtain the four measurements that are required, remount the housing 90° from the original position. Measure the depth of the housing again.
Subtract the measurement in Step 1 from the measurement in Step 3 and add 0.060 mm (0.0024 inch).
Remove housing (4) from the differential. Add the amount of shims that are necessary to equal the thickness in Step 4 within 0.020 mm (0.0008 inch).Note: Install seal (3) at this time.
Tighten 38 bolts (1) to a torque of 900 100 N m (664 74 lb ft).
