Step A-7
Diff Drive Ring to Female Outdrive
q
1. Press a 5mm x 8mm Bearing (13) into the center area of the
Female Plastic Outdrive (15) as indicated. The edge of the Bearing
should be flush with the front of the Outdrive.
q
2. Apply a small amount of Clear Diff Grease (8) to the outer ring
of the Outdrive. Install the second Drive Ring (10), again aligning the
flat sections of the Outdrive and the Drive Ring.
Thrust Bearing Assembly and Install
Step A-8
16
q
1. Place the Foam Thrust Bearing Seal (17) over the shoulder of
the Diff Adjusting Screw (16).
q
2. Place one of the 1/8" x 5/16" Thrust Bearing Washers (18) over
the Diff Screw.
q
3. Using the Red MIP Grease (78), apply a fairly heavy coat of
Grease to the Thrust Washer and position eight of the 5/64" Thrust
Balls (19) in a circular pattern around the Diff Screw. Apply another
coat of Red MIP Grease over the Thrust Balls and place the second
Thrust Bearing Washer over the Screw, against the Thrust Balls.
q
4. Insert the Diff Screw into the Female Outdrive. Pull the threaded
end of the Screw until the Thrust assembly rests against the inside of
the Outdrive.
Step A-9
Final Differential Assembly
q
1. Carefully remove the Allen Wrench (159) from the Male
Outdrive (7) and replace it with a pen or pencil. Place the Allen Wrench
in the slot of the Female Outdrive (15) containing the Diff Screw (16).
The pen will be used to hold the Diff Nut (2) and Belleville Washers
(3) in the bottom side.
q
2. Apply a fairly heavy coat of Clear Grease (8) to the exposed
side of the Diff Balls (14) in the Diff Pulley (11) on the Male Outdrive
(7).
q
3. While holding the Female Outdrive with Allen Wrench inserted,
carefully assemble it to the Male half.
q
4. Make sure that the slot in the Diff Screw is lined up with the
slot in the Female half. While holding the Male Outdrive half, slowly
turn the Female Outdrive until the threads of the Diff Screw engage
on the threads of the Diff Nut. Remove the pencil from the male half
and thread the two Outdrives together until the Screw just starts to
snug up.
q
5. Tighten the Diff until the Pulley cannot be turned while both of
the Outdrives are being held firmly. Final diff adjustment should be
made after completion of the XXX-S.
When tightening the Diff, tighten the Screw a little and then
"work" the Diff a little. Then tighten the Screw a little more and
"work" the Diff again. Continue this until the Diff doesn't slip. This
ensures that the parts in the Diff are properly seated. Refer to tech
tips for final adjustment. "Working" the Diff is done by rotating the
Outdrives in opposite directions.
