The cleaning and inspection of these units is the same as for conventional differentials except that cleaning solvent should not be allowed to contact the
clutch plates. The clutch plates should be wiped clean only. In addition, the following steps should be performed which apply to the Traction-Loc
differential only.
Visually inspect clutch packs, side gears, pinion gears and pinion shaft for damage or wear and replace as necessary.
Place each clutch pack without shims into tool T80P-4946-A or equivalent, Fig. 7. Torque nut to 60 inch lbs. Using feeler gauge, determine thickness of
new shims by inserting thickest blade possible between clutch pack and tool, Fig. 8, and note size for use during reassembly.
