PROCEDURE
INSTALL DUST COVER
for LH Side:
| *a | Press |
| *b | Steel Plate |
Using SST, a steel plate and a press, install a new dust cover to the differential side gear shaft sub-assembly.
Note
Make sure that the edge of the dust cover is securely installed to the differential side gear shaft sub-assembly.
Do not damage the dust cover.
for RH Side:
| *a | Press |
| *b | Steel Plate |
Using SST, a steel plate and a press, install a new dust cover to the differential side gear shaft sub-assembly.
Note
Make sure that the edge of the dust cover is securely installed to the differential side gear shaft sub-assembly.
Do not damage the dust cover.
INSTALL DIFFERENTIAL SIDE GEAR SHAFT SUB-ASSEMBLY
Install a new differential side gear shaft snap ring to the differential side gear shaft sub-assembly.
Using SST, install the differential side gear shaft sub-assembly to the rear traction motor with transaxle assembly.
Note
Position the differential side gear shaft snap ring with the opening facing downward.
Do not tap the differential side gear shaft sub-assembly at an angle. If the differential side gear shaft sub-assembly is tapped at an angle, replace the differential side gear shaft snap ring with a new one.
Do not damage the rear transaxle side gear oil seal.
| *a | 272.9 mm (10.744 in.) or Less |
Using a vernier caliper, measure the distance between the right and left differential side gear shaft sub-assemblies as shown in the illustration.
| Standard Distance |
