1. INSPECT FRONT DIFFERENTIAL SIDE GEAR BACKLASH


    C193757

  1. Install the front differential pinion to the front differential case side. Using a dial indicator, measure the front differential side gear backlash.

    Standard backlash:
    0.05 to 0.20 mm (0.00197 to 0.00787 in.)

    If the backlash is out of specification, replace the side gear thrust washers.

    Thrust Washer Thickness:
    Parts No.

    HINT:
    1. Measure the thickness with a micrometer to select a proper thrust washer because the thrust washers do not have any distinguishing marks.
    2. Select washers of the same thickness for both the right and left sides.



2. INSPECT FRONT DIFFERENTIAL PINION THRUST WASHER


    C193762

  1. Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the front differential pinion thrust washer.

    Minimum thickness:
    0.92 mm (0.0362 in.)

    If the thickness is less than the minimum, replace the front differential pinion thrust washer.



3. INSPECT FRONT NO. 1 DIFFERENTIAL PINION SHAFT


    C195365

  1. Using a micrometer, measure the outer diameter of the front No. 1 differential pinion shaft.

    Minimum outer diameter:
    16.982 mm (0.669 in.)

    If the outer diameter is less than the minimum, replace the front No. 1 differential pinion shaft.
