Final Drive

Final Drive
DISASSEMBLY





1. Remove final gear using suitable tool.





2. Press out differential side bearings using Tool.
Tool number: ST3301001 (J-22888-D) Tool number: ST33061000 (J-8107-2)

CAUTION: Be careful not to mix up the right and left bearings.





3. Remove differential side bearing outer race and side bearing adjusting shim from transaxle case using Tool.
Tool number : KV381054S0 (J-34286)





4. Remove speedometer drive gear.





5. Drive out pinion mate shaft lock pin using Tool.
Tool number: KV32101000 (J-25689-A)





6. Draw out pinion mate shaft lock pin.
7. Remove pinion mate gears and side gears.

INSPECTION
Gear, Washer, Shaft and Case





^ Check mating surfaces of differential case, side gears and pinion mate gears.
^ Check washers for wear.

Bearings





Make sure bearings roll freely and are free from noise, cracks, pitting or wear.
^ When replacing taper roller bearing, replace outer and inner race as a set.

ASSEMBLY





1. Attach side gear thrust washers to side gears, then install pinion mate thrust washers and pinion mate gears in place.

NOTE: Apply ATF to any parts during assembly.





2. Insert pinion mate shaft.

CAUTION: When inserting, be careful not to damage pinion mate thrust washers.





3. Measure clearance between side gear and differential case with washers following the procedure using Tool:
Tool number (J-39713)
a. Set Tool and dial indicator on side gear.





b. Move side gear up and down to measure dial indicator deflection. Always measure indicator deflection on both side gears.
Clearance between side gear differential case with washer: 0.1 - 0.2 mm (0.004 - 0.008 inch)
c. If not within specification, adjust clearance by changing thickness of differential side gear thrust washers.
Differential side gear thrust washers: Refer to "DIFFERENTIAL SIDE GEAR THRUST WASHERS".





4. Install lock pin. using Tool
Tool number : KV32101000 (J-25689-A)

NOTE: Make sure the pin is flush with case.





5. Install speedometer drive gear on differential case.

NOTE: Align the projection of speedometer drive gear with the groove of differential case.





6. Press on differential side bearings using Tool.
Tool number : ST33230000 (J-25805-01)





7. Install final gear and tighten final gear bolts in a crisscross pattern to the specified torque using suitable tool. Refer to "COMPONENTS".
