Differential Gear Installation<br />

1. If the ring gear was removed, use medium strength<br />

thread locking compound and tighten the mounting<br />

screws from 22 to 25 ft-lb (30 to 34 N -m).<br />

2. Apply molybdenum disulfide grease to the splines<br />

and bearing surfaces of the differential pinion gears, pinion<br />

washers and side gears.<br />

3. Install the side gear shims and side gears in their<br />

original location in the differential case.<br />

4. Place the differential pinion gears and pinion washers<br />

in their original location in the differential case. Temporarily<br />

install the differential pinion shaft.<br />

5. Secure the differential case in a vise. Position a dial<br />

indicator at the tooths center and measure the differential<br />

pinion gear to side gear backlash (Fig. 39).<br />

PINION GEAR TO SIDE GEAR BACKLASH:<br />

0.004 to 0.016 in. (0.10 to 0.40 mm)<br />

1. Vise<br />

2. Differential gear case<br />

More than 35% total tooth contact<br />

Figure 39<br />

3. Dial indicator<br />

6. Adjust backlash by increasing or reducing side gear<br />

shim thickness.<br />

NOTE: Side gear shims are available in 0.043 in. (1.1<br />

mm), 0.047 in. (1.2 mm) and 0.051 in. (1.3 mm) thickness.<br />

7. Apply gear marking compound, such as DyKemR<br />

Steel Blue lightly over several gear teeth.<br />

8. While applying a light load to either side gear, rotate<br />

either pinion gear until the side gears have made one<br />

complete revolution.<br />

9. Ideal tooth contact should cover more than 35% of<br />

each tooth surface. The contact area should be in the<br />

center of each tooth and extend 1/3 to 1/2 way across<br />

each tooth from the toe (small) end (Fig. 40).<br />

10.Adjust side gear shims if necessary to correct tooth<br />

contact. Recheck differential pinion gear to side gear<br />

backlash if any changes are made.<br />

11.After backlash and tooth contact have been adjusted,<br />

align the hole in the differential pinion shaft with<br />

the hole in the differential case and install a new spring<br />

pin.<br />

1/3 to 1/2 of entire width<br />

from small end of tooth<br />

Figure 40<br />

12.Install differential gear assembly in right side axle<br />

support half.<br />

13.Coat a new O-ring with grease and install left side<br />

axle support half. Tighten axle support case screws from<br />

35 to 41 ft-lb (47 to 56 N -m).<br />

14.Install input shaft/pinion gear assembly (see Input<br />

shaft/Pinion in this section of this manual).<br />

15.Coat new O-rings with grease, align differential shaft<br />

splines with differential gear assembly and slide differential<br />

shaft assemblies onto axle support.<br />

16.Install bevel gear case/axle case assemblies (see<br />

Bevel Gear Case/Axle Case Assembly in this section of<br />

this manual).<br />
