13. Measure the differential case runout without the ring gear.
1. Rotate the differential case.
2. Check and note the differential case runout.
NOTE: If runout is within specification, install a new ring gear and pinion. If runout exceeds specification, the ring gear is true and the
concern is due to either a damaged differential case or differential bearings. Inspect the differential bearings. If the differential bearings are not
damaged, replace both the differential case and the differential bearings.
