INSTALL REAR DIFFERENTIAL CARRIER ASSEMBLY
Place the rear differential carrier assembly on a transmission jack.
CAUTION:
As the rear differential carrier assembly is very heavy, securely support it with the transmission jack.
Perform this procedure with several people supporting the rear differential carrier assembly so that it does not tilt or fall.
Slowly raise the transmission jack so that the rear differential carrier is at its installation position.
Note
When installing the rear differential carrier assembly, do not damage the installation surface.
Temporarily install the upper and lower rear differential mount stoppers with 2 new bolts (B).
Temporarily install 2 new bolts (A).
Temporarily install a new bolt (C).
Using SST and a 12 mm socket hexagon wrench, tighten the 2 bolts (A).
Note
Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 400 mm (16 in.).
Tighten the bolts so that they do not interfere with the bolt holes of the mount cushions.
