Rotational Torque Measurement

Rotational Torque Measurement

Special Tool
DT-47687 Rotational Torque Adapter





1. Rotate the transmission assembly so that the torque converter housing side is facing up.
2. Install the front differential assembly (13) into the empty transmission case.





3. Install the torque converter housing assembly (10) to the transmission case assembly.

CAUTION:
Refer to [Fastener Notice]


4. Install the following fasteners and hand tighten.
Tightening torque
^ 2 - torque converter housing studs (3) - M8 x 1.25 x 30
^ 1 - torque converter housing bolt torx (8) - M8 x 1.25 x 30
^ 9 - torque converter housing bolt (4) - M8 x 1.25 x 30





5. Tighten the torque converter housing bolts in sequence.
Tightening torque
Tighten the bolts to 29 Nm (21 ft. lbs.).





6. Insert DT-47687 (1) into the axle shaft opening of the differential and rotate DT-47687 (1) until it engages with the differential pinion shaft (645).
7. Using a torque wrench, measure the rotational torque required to slowly rotate the front differential assembly and note the readings.
Tightening torque
Specification should be within 0.70-1.20 Nm (6-11 in. lbs.).
8. If the obtained measurement is within specifications, the differential shim replacement is not necessary.
If obtained measurement is not within the listed specifications, the front differential bearing race shim must be replaced.
9. Remove DT-47687 (1) from the front differential assembly.
10. Remove the torque converter housing assembly and the front differential assembly from the transmission case.
