Note
Before using SST (center bolt), apply hypoid gear oil to its threads and tip.
Adjust the drive pinion preload by tightening the rear drive pinion nut.
Using SST to hold the rear drive pinion companion flange sub-assembly with dust deflector in place, slowly tighten the rear drive pinion nut within the drive pinion preload adjustment range so that it reaches the specified drive pinion preload (at Starting).
| Limit torque value |
|---|
| 457 N*m (4660 kgf*cm, 337 ft.*lbf) or less |
Note

Place the 2 rear differential case bearings (outer) to their respective bearings.
Tech Tips
Make sure the right and left races are not interchanged.
ADJUST DIFFERENTIAL RING GEAR BACKLASH
Install the plate washer to the RH side (differential lock coil side).
Note
Make sure that the differential ring gear has backlash.
Using a dial indicator, while holding the rear drive pinion companion flange sub-assembly with dust deflector, measure the ring gear backlash.
| Standard backlash (reference) |
|---|
| 0.10 to 0.20 mm (0.00394 to 0.00787 in.) |
Refer to the backlash when selecting a plate washer for the RH side (differential lock coil side).
Select a plate washer for the LH side (ring gear side) so that there is no gap between the rear differential case bearing (outer) and differential case.
Using a plastic-faced hammer, install the plate washer to the LH side (ring gear side).
Using a dial indicator, adjust the ring gear backlash until it is within the specification.
| Standard backlash |
|---|
| 0.10 to 0.20 mm (0.00394 to 0.00787 in.) |
Tech Tips
If the backlash is not within the specification, adjust it by either increasing or decreasing the thickness of the plate washers on both sides by an equal amount.
Note
There should be no clearance between the plate washer and case.
Make sure that there is ring gear backlash.
ADJUST SIDE BEARING PRELOAD
After adjusting the backlash of the differential ring gear, remove the plate washer from the LH side (ring gear side).
Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the plate washer.
Using the backlash as a reference, select a new plate washer that is 0.05 to 0.20 mm (0.00197 to 0.00787 in.) thicker than the removed plate washer and, using a plastic-faced hammer, tap it in so that it fits against the bearing.
Tech Tips
Select a plate washer which can be pressed in 2/3 of the full amount with your finger.
Recheck the ring gear backlash.
| Standard backlash |
|---|
| 0.10 to 0.20 mm (0.00394 to 0.00787 in.) |
If the backlash is not within the specification, adjust it by either increasing or decreasing the thickness of the washers on both sides by an equal amount.
Tech Tips
An approximately 0.02 mm (0.000787 in.) change in each plate washer results in a 0.03 mm (0.00118 in.) change in the backlash.
