      09950-70010   ( 09951-07100 )

      Note


      • Make sure the LH and RH oil seals are installed to the proper locations.

      • As a different side of SST is used for each oil seal, be sure to confirm that the correct side of SST is being used before tapping in an oil seal.

      • Make sure that the lip of the oil seal is inserted into SST before tapping in the oil seal.

      • As each side of SST is designed to tap in the corresponding oil seal to the proper depth, be sure to fully tap in the oil seal.

      • Do not damage the oil seals.

      Standard Oil Seal Depth
      Item Specified Condition
      for LH Side 2.9 +/-0.45 mm (0.114 +/-0.0177 in.)
      for RH Side 8.1 +/-0.45 mm (0.319 +/-0.0177 in.)
    2. Apply MP grease to the lip of each oil seal.

  10. ADD DIFFERENTIAL OIL


    1. A01E16LE51
      Text in Illustration
      *a 0 to 5 mm (0 to 0.196 in.)

      Add differential oil so that the oil level is within 5 mm (0 to 0.196 in.) from the bottom lip of the differential filler plug hole.

      Note


      • After changing the oil seal, drive the vehicle and then check the oil level again.

      • Too much or too little oil will lead to differential problems.

      Tech Tips

      If necessary, fill the differential carrier assembly with hypoid gear oil.

        Text in Illustration
        *1 10 mm Straight Hexagon Wrench
        *2 10 mm Union Nut Wrench
        *3 Socket Adaptor

        Using SST and the 10 mm straight hexagon wrench, 10 mm union nut wrench and socket adaptor, install a new gasket and the differential filler plug.

        SST

        Torque:
        39 N*m  { 400 kgf*cm, 29 ft.*lbf }

        Note


        • Make sure all the tools are connected in a straight line.

        • Use the formula to calculate special torque values for situations where a union nut wrench is combined with a torque wrench.

          Formula
          T' = T x L3 / (L1 + L2 + L3)
          - T' = Spec. value of torque wrench
          - T = Value of specified tightening torque
          - L1 = Length of union nut wrench
          - L2 = Length of SST
          - L3 = Length of torque wrench
