 PRECAUTIONS

PRECAUTIONS PFP:00001

Service Notice or Precautions UDS000WI

● Check for the correct installation status prior to removal or disassembly. If matching marks are required,
be certain they do not interfere with the function of the parts when applied.
● Overhaul should be done in a clean work area, it is preferable to work in dustproof area.
● Before disassembly, completely remove sand and mud from the exterior of the unit, preventing them from
entering into the unit during disassembly or assembly.
● Check appearance of the disassembled parts for damage, deformation, and unusual wear. Replace them
with a new ones if necessary.
● Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time when the unit is disassembled.
● In principle, tighten bolts or nuts gradually in several steps working diagonally from inside to outside. If
tightening sequence is specified, observe it.
● Clean and flush the parts sufficiently and blow-dry them.
● Be careful not to damage sliding surfaces and mating surfaces.
● When applying sealant, remove the old sealant from the mating surface; then remove any moisture, oil,
and foreign materials from the application and mating surfaces.
● Always use shop paper for cleaning the inside of components.
● Avoid using cotton gloves or shop rags to prevent entering of lint.
● During assembly, observe the specified tightening torque, and apply new gear oil, petroleum jelly, or multi-
purpose grease as specified for each vehicle, if necessary.

Total Preload Torque

1. Rotate drive pinion back and forth 2 to 3 times to check for unusual noise and rotation malfunction.
B
2. Rotate drive pinion at least 20 times to check for smooth opera-
tion of the bearing.
3. Measure total preload with preload gauge. C
Tool number : ST3127S000 (J-25765-A)

Total preload torque (With oil seal):

FFD
1.67 - 2.74 N·m (0.17 - 0.27 kg-m, 15 - 24 in-lb)
NOTE:
Total preload torque = Pinion bearing torque + Side bearing E
torque PDIA0697E

● If measured value is out of the specification, disassemble it to

check and adjust each part. Adjust the pinion bearing preload and side bearing preload. F
Adjust the pinion bearing preload first, then adjust the side bearing preload.
When the preload torque is large
On pinion bearings: Replace the collapsible spacer. G
On side bearings: Use thinner side bearing adjusting washers by the same amount to
each side. Refer to FFD-37, "Side Bearing Adjusting Washer" .
H
When the preload is small
On pinion bearings: Tighten the drive pinion nut.
On side bearings: Use thicker side bearing adjusting washers by the same amount to I
each side. Refer to FFD-37, "Side Bearing Adjusting Washer" .
CAUTION:
J
Select a side bearing adjusting washer for right and left individually.
Drive Gear Runout
1. Remove rear cover. Refer to FFD-21, "Differential Assembly" . K
2. Fit a dial indicator to the drive gear back face.
3. Rotate the drive gear to measure runout.
L
Runout limit: 0.08 mm (0.0031 in) or less
● If the runout is outside of the repair limit, check drive gear
assembly condition; foreign material may be caught between M
drive gear and differential case, or differential case or drive gear
may be deformed, etc.
CAUTION:
Replace drive gear and drive pinion gear as a set.

● If the tooth contact is near the face (face contact), or near the
heel (heel contact), thicken pinion height adjusting washers to
move drive pinion closer to drive gear.
E
Refer to FFD-37, "Pinion Height Adjusting Washer" .

G
PDIA0440E

● If the tooth contact is near the flank (flank contact), or near the
H
toe (toe contact), thin pinion height adjusting washers to move
drive pinion farther from drive gear.
Refer to FFD-37, "Pinion Height Adjusting Washer" .
I

PDIA0441E
K
Backlash
1. Remove rear cover. Refer to FFD-21, "Differential Assembly" .
2. Fit a dial indicator to the drive gear face to measure the back- L
lash.
Backlash: 0.10 - 0.15 mm (0.0039 - 0.0059 in)
M
● If the backlash is outside of the specified value, change the
thickness of side bearing adjusting washer.
When the backlash is large:
Make drive gear back side adjusting washer thicker,
and drive gear tooth side adjusting washer thinner by
the same amount. Refer to FFD-37, "Side Bearing SPD513

Adjusting Washer" .
When the backlash is small:
Make drive gear back side adjusting washer thinner,
and drive gear tooth side adjusting washer thicker by
the same amount. Refer to FFD-37, "Side Bearing
Adjusting Washer" .
CAUTION:
Do not change the total amount of washers as it will change the bearing preload.

 FRONT FINAL DRIVE ASSEMBLY

Companion Flange Runout

1. Fit a dial indicator onto the companion flange face (inner side of
the propeller shaft bolt holes).
2. Rotate companion flange to check for runout.
Runout limit: 0.1 mm (0.004 in) or less
3. Fit a test indicator to the inner side of companion flange (socket
diameter).
4. Rotate companion flange to check for runout.
Runout limit: 0.1 mm (0.004 in) or less
PDIA0698E
5. If the runout value is outside the runout limit, follow the proce-
dure below to adjust.
a. Check for runout while changing the phase between companion flange and drive pinion by 90° step, and
search for the position where the runout is the minimum.
b. If the runout value is still outside of the limit after the phase has been changed, possible cause will be an
assembly malfunction of drive pinion and pinion bearing, malfunctioning pinion bearing.

ADJUSTMENT AND SELECTION ADJUSTING WASHERS

Differential Side Gear Clearance
● Assemble the differential parts if they are disassembled. Refer to FFD-32, "Differential Assembly" .
1. Place differential case straight up so that side gear to be mea-
sured comes upward.

PDIA0460E

2. Using feeler gauge, measure the clearance between side gear

back and differential case at 3 different points, while rotating
side gear. Average the 3 readings, and then measure the clear-
ance. (Measure the clearance of the other side as well.)
Side gear back clearance specification:
0.1 mm (0.004 in) or less.
(Each gear should rotate smoothly without excessive
resistance during differential motion.)
CAUTION:
To prevent side gear from tilting, insert feeler gauges with
the same thickness from both sides.
3. If the back clearance is outside the specification, use a thicker/
thinner side gear thrust washer to adjust. Refer to FFD-36, "Side
Gear Thrust Washer" .
When the back clearance is large:
Use a thicker thrust washer.
When the back clearance is small:
Use a thinner thrust washer.
CAUTION:
Select a side gear thrust washer for right and left individu- PDIA0576E

ally.
