1. Install the differential assembly complete with ring gear
and inner ring gear bearing rings in the bevel drive/

of 20 N·m (15 lb ft).
3. With the bearings lubricated, rotate the ring gear and
at the same time tighten the threaded adjustment ring
using wrench, tool no 380000252 (A) to a torque of 39 -
