      *a Turn
      *b Hold

      Using SST, remove the front differential case rear tapered roller bearing from the front No. 1 differential case sub-assembly.

      SST
      09950-00020
      09950-00030
      09950-40011   ( 09957-04010 )
      09950-60010   ( 09951-00490 )

  3. REMOVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL RING GEAR


    1. Mount the front differential ring gear in a vise between aluminum plates.

      Note


      • Be careful not to damage the front differential ring gear.

      • Do not overtighten the vise.

  5. REMOVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL PINION SHAFT STRAIGHT PIN


    1. A004P19

      Using a 5 mm pin punch and hammer, tap out the front differential pinion shaft straight pin from the front No. 1 differential case sub-assembly.

  6. REMOVE FRONT NO. 1 DIFFERENTIAL PINIONSHAFT


    1. A004O3F

      Remove the front No. 1 differential pinion shaft from the front No. 1 differential case sub-assembly.

  8. REMOVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SIDE GEAR


    1. Set SST as shown in the illustration and tighten it.

      SST
      09528-52010   ( 09953-05010, 09528-05010 )
      A004PX7E03
      Text in Illustration
      *a Turn *b Hold

      Note

      Do not overtighten SST, as doing so will damage the front differential side gear, center differential side gear conical spring washer, front No. 1 differential side gear thrust washer and front No. 1 differential case sub-assembly.

      Tech Tips


      • Tighten SST until there is a clearance between the front differential pinion and front differential side gear.

      • When removing the front differential pinions, do not overtighten SST, as it is necessary to rotate the front differential side gears.

    2. A004RZ0E01

      *a Turn

      Install SST as shown in the illustration, rotate the front differential side gear, and then remove the 2 front differential pinions and 2 front differential pinion thrust washers from the front No. 1 differential case sub-assembly.

      SST
      09528-52010   ( 09528-05030 )

      Note

      Do not drop the front differential pinion and front differential pinion thrust washer.

      *1 Front Differential Side Gear
      *2 Center Differential Side Gear Conical Spring Washer
      *3 Front No. 1 Differential Side Gear Thrust Washer

      Remove SST from the front No. 1 differential case sub-assembly, and then remove the 2 front differential side gears, 2 front No. 1 differential side gear thrust washers and 2 center differential side gear conical spring washers from the front No. 1 differential case sub-assembly.

      Note

      Do not drop the front differential side gear, front No. 1 differential side gear thrust washer and center differential side gear conical spring washer.
