Assembling and disassembling differential with differential lock





Tools








Overview








Disassembling differential lock

1. Remove differential.
2. Disassemble differential.

Information
^ The installation position of the cover with respect to the housing must be marked for refitting.





3. Unscrew three cross-recess screws -A- and remove cover -B-.
4. Remove inner parts - see overview.

Assembling differential lock

Information
^ The complete disc pack should always be replaced in the case of repairs. Individual discs cannot be replaced. Oil discs, thrust rings and axles lightly with transmission oil before fitting.

1. Insert inner parts - see overview. If necessary, affix thrust washers with viscous grease.
2. Fit cover and screw in cross-recess screws.

Tightening torque: 15 Nm (11 ftlb.)

3. Insert halfshaft flange into transmission housing.





4. Now measure the basic locking torque by holding one of the halfshaft flanges in position and driving the other. To do this, clamp one flange in the vice with two screws and position differential. Insert second drive flange with shop-made connecting piece -A- and turn differential with a torque measuring tool. A basic locking torque from 2.5 to 15 Nm (1.5 to 11 ftlb.) must be achieved.
5. Assemble differential.
6. Install differential.
