Raise the temperature of bearing cone (9) and bearing cone (10). Install bearing cone (9) and bearing cone (10).
Illustration 15 g01040825
Install bevel gear (12) onto the differential. Apply Tooling (K) to the threads of bolts (11). Install bolts (11) and tighten bolts (11) to a torque of 70 N m (52 lb ft).
Illustration 16 g01040808
Install bearing cups (6) and (7) and install the differential into axle housing (8).
Illustration 17 g01040715
Install caps (5) and install bolts (4). Slightly tighten bolts (4). Do not torque bolts (4) at this time.
Illustration 18 g01034579
Use Tooling (A) and install spanner nuts (3).
Oscillate the pinion shaft and use Tooling (A) to advance spanner nuts (3) until there is slight backlash and no end play on the bearings.Note: Use the following two Steps to set the proper bearing preload.
Use a dial type torque wrench and measure the total rotating torque. Use the following formula to calculate the total rotating torque (TRT): P equals the rotating torque that was measured in Step 13. TRT = P + 0.53 N m (4.7 lb in) to P + 0.80 N m (7 lb in)
If the total rotating torque (TRT) is less than the specified amount, tighten the spanner nuts. If the total rotating torque (TRT) is greater than the specified amount, loosen the spanner nuts. Always be sure to maintain a slight backlash.
Illustration 19 g02915396
Mount Tooling (L) onto the differential housing, as shown. Measure the backlash between the pinion and the bevel gear. The proper backlash setting is between 0.180 mm (0.0071 inch) and 0.320 mm (0.0126 inch).
Illustration 20 g01029595
If the backlash is not within the specification, retract one spanner nut and advance the opposite spanner nut equally. This procedure will maintain the bearing preload. If the backlash is less than the specified amount, move the bevel gear in Direction (A). If the backlash is greater than the specified amount, move the bevel gear in Direction (B).
