Differential Carrier: Service and Repair
Reverse ``Disassembly'' procedure to assemble and note the following:
Models w/2 Pinion Type Differential
1.
Assemble pinion mates, side gears, thrust washers, and thrust block, if equipped, in differential case.
2.
Install pinion shaft to differential case so that it meets lock pin holes.
3.
Adjust pinion mate-to-side gear backlash or the clearance between the rear face of side gear and thrust washer to proper thickness by selecting side
gear thrust washer.
4.
Lock pinion shaft lock pin using a punch after it is secured into place.
5.
Apply oil to gear tooth surfaces and thrust surfaces and check if they turn properly.
6.
Apply suitable locking compound to ring gear attaching bolts, then place ring gear on differential case and install bolts and lock washers. Torque
bolts to 58-72 ft. lbs. on models with 10 mm bolts and 98-112 ft. lbs. on models with 12 mm bolts, then bend up lock washers, if equipped.
Fig. 28 Checking clearance between side gear thrust washer & differential case. 4 pinion type axles
Models w/4 Pinion Type Differential
1.
Measure clearance between side gear thrust washer and differential case, Fig. 28. Clearance (A) and (B) should be .0039-.0079 inch.
2.
If clearance is not as specified, adjust by installing correct side gear thrust washer.
3.
Apply suitable gear oil to gear tooth surfaces and thrust surfaces, then install thrust washer, pinion mate shaft, pinion mate gear, pinion mate thrust
washer, thrust block if equipped and side gear in differential case.
4.
Assemble LH and RH differential case, then the ring gear on differential case.
5.
Apply suitable locking compound on ring gear attaching bolts, then install bolts. Torque attaching bolts in a criss-cross pattern to 58-69 ft. lbs. on
H233B model axle, 51-58 ft. lbs. for 10 mm bolts on C200 model axle and 98-112 ft. lbs. for 12 mm bolts on C200 model axle.
6.
Press side bearing inner race on differential case using suitable tools.
