Differential Pinion Shaft Retension
FIGURE 1 - EXTENDED RING GEAR RIVETS
As of Transmission No. 15 10 2, differential pinion gear shaft is not retained by circlips. Instead, two of the eight ring gear retaining rivets are extended
(arrows, Fig... 1) on both sides of pinion shaft acting as stops.
When repairs require extended rivet heads be removed, differential pinion gear shaft must be secured by circlips.
Differential pinion gear shafts with circlip grooves are available for replacement:
