    INSPECT DIFFERENTIAL DRIVE PINION PRELOAD


    1. A017CU9

      Using a torque wrench, measure the preload of the drive pinon.

      Drive pinion preload (Initial)
      Item Preload
      New bearing 1.1 to 1.7 N*m (11.2 to 17.3 kgf*cm, 9.7 to 15.0 in.*lbf)
      Reused bearing 0.6 to 0.9 N*m (6.1 to 9.2 kgf*cm, 5.3 to 8.0 in.*lbf)

      • If the preload is greater than the specification, replace the rear differential drive pinion bearing spacer.

      • If the preload is less than the specification, replace the rear drive pinion nut and tighten it in several steps with 13 N*m (130 kgf*cm, 9 ft.*lbf) of torque at a time until the specified preload is reached.

      Torque
      235 N*m (2400 kgf*cm, 174 ft.*lbf) or less

      • If the torque exceeds the maximum while retightening the rear drive pinion nut, replace the rear differential drive pinion bearing spacer and repeat the preload adjusting procedure.

      Note:

      Do not loosen the pinion nut to reduce the preload.

        09370-50010
        No. 1 joint angle
        (A) - (B) = -1.3° to -3.3°
      5. A017CTPE01

        Using SST, measure the rear propeller shaft installation angle (C) and rear differential shaft installation angle (D).

        09370-50010
        No. 2 joint angle
        (C) - (D) = 1.8° to 3.5°
        Tip:

        If the measured angle is not within the specification, adjust it with the center support bearing adjusting shim.

        Center support bearing adjusting shim thickness
        Thickness mm (in.) Thickness mm (in.)
        3.2 (0.126) 11.0 (0.433)
