2. Assemble the clutch pack in the flange half of the differential case.
NOTE: After assembly, make sure that the side gear splines engage the clutch pack splines and the differential side gear is fully seated.
3. Assemble the clutch pack plates for the button half of the differential case. Align the clutch pressure plate lugs, and install into the differential
case.
NOTE: There may be circumstances of continuing chatter/bumping in turns despite replacement of parts and lubricant, particularly in vehicles
operating at close to GVW rating. Typical situations are emergency vehicles and fifth wheel trailers. In these cases, it is permissible to reassemble
the rear axle disc and plate kit with the clutch disc adjacent to the differential side gear ring, resulting in two clutch plates together. This results in
three friction surfaces instead of the normal five, lowering the torque to rotate the wheel by 40 percent.
