      -0.5 to 0.5 mm (-0.0197 to 0.0196 in.)

      Note


      • Make sure to check the identification marks on the oil seals before installation because the part numbers differ between the left and right sides.

      • To ensure a proper seal, evenly tap in the rear differential side gear shaft oil seal.

      • When installing the oil seal, tap it in until its surface is flush with the rear differential carrier.

      • Make sure the difference between the maximum and minimum measured values is less than 0.85 mm (0.0335 in.), as a greater difference may lead to oil leaks.
