Differential Pinion and Differential Side Gear
1. Draw out the differential pinion shaft (2).
2. Take out the differential pinions (1), differential pinion washers (7) and the differential side gears (6), differential side gear washers (8).
NOTE
• Arrange the parts to know their original position.
(When reassembling)
• Examine the thrust and bearing surface of both differential side gears (6). If they are worn or damaged, bores in the differential case may also be damaged.
• Check the differential pinions (1) and pinion shaft (2) for excessive wear. If these parts are damaged or excessively
worn, also replace parts they are in mesh with, or they are sliding on.
• Apply molybdenum disulfide (Three Bond 1901 or equivalent) to the inner circumferential surface of the differential pinions.
• Install the parts to their original position.
