Rear Axle 21 Caution: Carelessness while installing differential case assembly may result in injury. 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. Check ring gear and pinion backlash at three equally spaced points with dial indicator. Backlash tolerance is 0.13 to 0.20 mm. and should not vary more than 0.08 mm. between the three points checked. High backlash is corrected by moving ring gear closer to pinion. Low backlash is corrected by moving ring gear away from pinion. These corrections are made by switching shims from one side of differential case to other. If backlash is to specification, check ring gear and pinion tooth contact pattern.
