DIFFERENTIALS
(6) Measure the driven gear to drive pinion
backlash. Set the magnet base on the differen-
tial carrier. Align the contact point of dial gauge
with the tooth surface of hypoid driven gear,
and move the hypoid driven gear while securing
the drive pinion. Read the value indicated on
dial gauge.
Backlash:
0.10 — 0.20 mm (0.004 — 0.008 in)
NOTE:
If the backlash exceeds 0.20 mm (0.008 in), reduce
the thickness of shim on the back side of the hypoid
driven gear and increase the thickness of shims on
the teeth side of the hypoid driven gear. If the back-
lash is less than 0.10 mm (0.004 in), increase the
thickness of shim on the back side of the hypoid
driven gear and reduce the thickness of shims on
the teeth side of the hypoid driven gear.
(7) At the same time, measure the total preload
of the drive pinion. Compared with the time
when differential case is not installed, if the total
preload is not within specification, adjust the
thickness of side bearing retainer shims, in-
creasing/reducing both shims by an even
amount at a time.
Total preload:
27 — 54 N (2.8 — 5.5 kgf, 6.1 — 12.2 lbf)
25) Measure the driven gear to drive pinion back-
lash again.
Backlash:
0.10 — 0.20 mm (0.004 — 0.008 in)
Rear Differential
26) Check the hypoid driven gear runout on its
back surface, and make sure that the pinion and
hypoid driven gear rotates smoothly.
Driven gear rear face runout limit:
0.05 mm (0.0020 in) or less
27) Checking and adjusting the tooth contact of hy-
poid driven gear
(1) Apply an even coat of red lead on both sides
DI-00099
of three or four teeth on the driven gear. Check
the contact pattern after rotating the hypoid
driven gear several revolutions back and forth
until a definite contact pattern appears on the
hypoid driven gear.
(2) If the contact pattern is not correct, readjust
it according to the directions indicated in the
"Contact Pattern".
NOTE:
Be sure to wipe off the red lead completely after the
adjustment is completed.
• Correct tooth contact
Check item: Tooth contact pattern is slightly
shifted toward toe side under no-load rotation.
(When driving, it moves towards the heel side.)
(A) Toe side
(B) Heel side
