NOTICE:
Measure at 3 or more areas around the circumference of the ring gear.
HINT
*
Record the measured value, as it is used to select the differential side gear shaft snap ring.
*
Perform the tooth contact pattern inspection for the differential ring gear and drive pinion. The results will be used as a reference
for selecting the differential side gear shaft snap ring.
(e) If the measured value is not within the specified range, replace the ring gear side differential side gear shaft snap ring with one of a different
thickness in the next step.
(f) Loosen the thinnest side gear shaft snap ring on the ring gear tooth side.
(g) Using SST and a hammer, tap the ring gear back surface side to create clearance between the differential case bearing outer race and the
differential side gear shaft snap ring of the ring gear back surface side.

The clearance is not visible, but tapping SST with a hammer 3 or 4 times should be enough.
(h) Using snap ring pliers, remove the side gear shaft snap ring on the ring gear back surface side.
(i) Using snap ring pliers, install a side gear shaft snap ring with a different thickness than the one removed.
