-
A: 104.000 - 104.035 mm (4.0945 - 4.0959 in.)
-
B: 97.000 - 97.035 mm (3.8189 - 3.8203 in.)
Maximum diameter:
-
A: 104.060 mm (4.0969 in.)
-
B: 97.060 mm (3.8213 in.)
2. Measure front differential case.
Using a micrometer, measure the outer diameter of the front differential case.
Standard diameter:
-
A: 103.929 - 103.964 mm (4.0917 - 4.0931 in.)
-
B: 96.929 - 96.964 mm (3.8161 - 3.3175 in.)
