- Using SST, turn the differential assembly to the right and left 2 or 3 times to settle the bearing.
SST 09564-32011
- Using SST and a torque wrench, measure the turning torque of the differential.
SST 09564-32011
Turning torque at 60 rpm:
New bearing:
0.20 to 0.69 N*m (2.0 to 7.0 kgf*cm, 1.8 to 6.1 in.*lbf)
Used bearing:
0.10 to 0.35 N*m (1.0 to 3.6 kgf*cm, 0.9 to 3.1 in.*lbf)
HINT:
If the turning torque is not as specified, refer to FLANGE THICKNESS to select a thrust washer so that the specified value is achieved.
