18.Install bearing caps. Ensure correct fitment of
caps by matching letters on caps and carrier
on either side. Use torque bearing cap screws
to specification.
19.Check ring gear and pinion backlash at three
equally spaced points with dial indicator.
Backlash tolerance is 0.13 to 0.20 mm(Max)
and should not vary more than 0.08 mm
between the three points checked.
20.High backlash is corrected by moving ring gear
closer to pinion.
21.Low backlash is corrected by moving ring gear
away from pinion.
22.These corrections are made by switching
shims from one side of differential case to
other.
23.Ifbacklash is to specification, check ring gear
and pinion tooth contact pattern.
