34.
Fit the thrust washers to the sun gears and slide these
into the differential housing.
35.
Assemble the thrust washers to the planet gears and
mesh the planet gears with the sun gears (planet gears
opposite each other).
36.
Rotate \he sun gears and slide both planet gears and
thrust washers into position in the differential unit.
37.
Insert the planet gear cross shaft.
38.
Select and fit planet gear thrust washer as required to
obtain zero backlash.
39.
Fit the locking pin to the cross shaft and lightly peen
to secure.
40.
Fit the carrier bearing inner cones to the differential
unit.
Do
not install any shims at this stage.
41.
Refit the hypoid case spreader tool 51.15.01
operations
8
and
9.
42.
Fit the outer bearing tracks to the cones and install
the differential in the hypoid casing.
Do
not fit the
bearing caps.
43.
Using a dial gauge, check the total axial movement· of
the crown wheel flange. To the measurement
obtained, must be added 0-003 in (0'0762 mm)
carrier bearing pre-load. Thus the total amount of
shims to be fitted to the carrier bearings is free
movement
+
0-003 in (01)762 mm).
44.
Remove the differential unit and fit crown wheel -
10 bolts and spring washers 38 to 46 Ibf in (5'2 to 6'4
kgf m), •• apply loctite to bolts before fitting. ••
45.
Again install the differential unit in the hypoid
housing.
46.
Using a dial gauge check the total axial movement.
This represents the crown wheel movement, zero
backlash to maximum backlash.
Subtract an operational backlash of 01>04 to 0'006 in
(0'1016 to 0'1524 mm) from the gauge reading.
From these two dimensions can be found bearing
shim thickness and location Le.
Instruction 43. Total float WITHOUT crown· wheel
PLUS 01>03 in (01)762 mm) bearing pre-load and
Instruction 46. Total float WITH crown wheel
MINUS required backlash 01>04 to 0'006 in (0'1016
to 0'1524 mm).
**
47.
Remove the carrier bearing adjacent to the crown
wheel from the differential unit and select the shim
pack to the valve of instruction 46 (the total float
with the crown wheel minus 01)04 to 0-006 in
(0'1016 to 0'1524 mm). Fit this shim pack to the
bearing.
48.
Remove the carrier bearing farthest from the crown
wheel. Subtract the dimension in instruction 46 from
the dimension in instruction 40. Select the shim pack
and fit the shims and bearing to the differential unit.
