  3. REMOVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL CASE REAR TAPERED ROLLER BEARING


    1. A01G9YWC01
      *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 )

  4. 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.

    2. A01GC23C01
      *a Matchmark

      Put matchmarks on the front differential ring gear and front No. 1 differential case sub-assembly.

    3. A01GBH7

      Remove the 16 bolts.

    4. Using a plastic-faced hammer, remove the front No. 1 differential case sub-assembly from the front differential ring gear.

  6. REMOVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL PINION SHAFT STRAIGHT PIN


    1. A01GBP1

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

  7. REMOVE FRONT NO. 1 DIFFERENTIAL PINION SHAFT


    1. A01GCEI

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

  9. REMOVE FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SIDE GEAR


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

      A01GB13C01
      *a Turn *b Hold
      SST
      09528-52010   ( 09528-05010, 09953-05010 )

      Note

      Do not overtighten SST, as doing so will damage the front differential side gear, conical spring, 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 pinions and front differential side gears.

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

    2. A01GCB6C01
      *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.

    3. A01GC86C01
      *1 Front Differential Side Gear
      *2 Conical Spring
      *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 conical springs 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 conical spring.
