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 />

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 />
