Assembly

1. Press the bearing outer race into the clutch housing.
2. Set the differential assembly into the clutch housing.
3. Install the differential side bearing outer race to the SST (selector).





4. Turn A and B until the gap shown is eliminated.

NOTICE: Do not overtighten the selector.





5. Set the SST collars in the positions shown.





6. Tighten the SST bolts to the specified torque.

Tightening torque: 14 - 19 ft. lbs. (19 - 26 Nm)





7. To seat the bearings, mount the bars on parts (A) and (B) of the selector, and turn the selector so the gap is widened.

NOTICE: Turn the bars until the SST (selector) can no longer be moved.

8. Turn in the reverse direction until the gap is eliminated.

NOTICE: Do not over tighten the SST (selector).





9. Install the SST to the differential pinion gear through the transaxle case.





10. Turn the SST with a torque meter. Adjust the SST (selector) with the bars until the specified preload is obtained.

Preload: 13.59 - 22.64 inch lbs. (1.53 - 2.55 Nm)

11. Remove the SST (preload adaptor).





12. Measure the clearance around the entire circumference of the SST (selector).





13. Select the proper adjust shim(s) to be used for the differential by referring to the table and selecting the shim which is nearest to the largest measured clearance in the selector.





14. Remove the SST (bolts).
15. Remove the transaxle case and the SST (collars).





16. Remove the bearing outer race from the SST (selector).
17. Install the selected shim(s). Press the bearing outer race into the transaxle case.

NOTICE:
- Use adjust shim(s) selected during bearing preload adjustment.
- Apply transaxle oil to the bearing outer race.
