DIFFERENTIAL CASE INSPECTION


  1. INSPECT DIFFERENTIAL SIDE GEAR BACKLASH


    1. A01EL6X

      Hold the differential case in a vise between aluminum plates.

      Note

      Do not overtighten the vise.

    2. Place a dial indicator on the tip of the differential side gear tooth at a right angle.

    3. Hold the front differential pinion in the differential case and measure the backlash of the differential side gear.

      Standard backlash
      0 to 0.15 mm (0 to 0.00591 in.)
      Thrust Washer Thickness
      Thickness Thickness
      1.50 mm (0.0591 in.) 1.75 mm (0.0689 in.)
      1.55 mm (0.0610 in.) 1.80 mm (0.0709 in.)
      1.60 mm (0.0630 in.) 1.85 mm (0.0728 in.)
      1.65 mm (0.0650 in.) 1.90 mm (0.0748 in.)
      1.70 mm (0.0669 in.) -

      If the backlash is greater than the standard range, select another No. 1 front differential side gear thrust washer.
