Differential Case Reassembly

Coat the 2 front differential side gears, 2 side gear thrust washers, 2 font differential pinions and 2 pinion thrust washers with ATF and install them to the differential case.

Coat the No. 1 front differential pinion shaft with ATF, and install it to the differential case.

Using a pin punch and a hammer, tap in the pinion shaft straight pin.

Using a chisel and a hammer, stake the differential case.

NOTICE:

Stake it after adjusting the backlash.

Using SST and a press, press in the front differential case rear tapered roller bearing to the differential case.

NOTICE:

Clearance is not allowed between the bearing and transaxle housing.

Install the differential assembly to the transaxle case.

Clean the matching surfaces of the transaxle case and transaxle housing.

Install the transaxle housing to the transaxle case and tighten them with the 16 bolts

Torque:

22 N*m{224 kgf*cm, 16 ft.*lbf}for bolt A

29 N*m{296 kgf*cm, 21 ft.*lbf}for bolts B and C

HINT:

Each bolt length is indicated below.

Bolt length:

50 mm (1.969 in.) for bolt A
50 m (1.969 in.) for bolt B
42 mm (1.654 in.) for bolt C

NOTICE:

Usually, bolt A is non-reusable bolt. In this case, however, it can be used after cleaning it.

Using SST, return the differential assembly right and left 2 or 3 times to allow the bearing settle.

Torque:

Standard turning torque at 60 rpm:

0.20 to 0.69 N*m{2.0 to 7.0 kgf*cm, 1.8 to 6.1 in.*lbf}

HINT:

If the turning torque is not within the specified value, refer to the table below and select a thrust washer which turning torque is within the specified value.

Standard flange thickness:

Mark	Thickness	Mark	Thickness
0	2.00 mm (0.0787 in.)	9	2.45 mm (0.0965 in.)
1	2.05 mm (0.0807 in.)	A	2.50 mm (0.0984 in.)
2	2.10 mm (0.0827 in.)	B	2.55 mm (0.1004 in.)

8	2.40 mm (0.0945 in.)	H	2.85 mm (0.1122 in.)

Remove the 16 bolts and the transaxle housing.

Remove the differential assembly.

Using ATF and a heater, heat the front differential ring gear to 90 to 110 °C (194.0 to 230.0 °F)

NOTICE:

Do not overheat the ring gear to 110°C (230.0°F) or more.

Clean the contract surface of the front differential case.

Align the matchmarks, and install the front differential ring gear case quickly.

NOTICE:

Do not install the bolts while the ring gear is hot.

Tighten the 14 bolts.

Torque:

95 N*m{969 kgf*cm, 70 ft.*lbf}

NOTICE:

Tighten the bolts a little at a time in diagonal order.

Coat the lip of a new oil seal with a little amount of MP grease.

Using SST and a hammer, tap in the oil seal.
