Pre-loading checks should be
measured without the seal ring fitted.
32. With the pinion-ring gear backlash set, measure
the total pre-loading (T) of the bearings (pinion-ring
gear system), using a dynamometer
whose cord is
wound on the 80 mm diameter of special tool Part
No, CA715116. The measured value should be
within the following range:
T= (P + 3.85) ÷ (P + 5.8) daN
Where (P) is the pre-loading effectively measured
on the pinion (see Pinion Assembly).
33. If the measurement is not within the required
range, check for correct assembly of components
and adjust the differential support ring nuts as
follows:
!
If the total pre-loading is less than the
required range, tighten the two ring nuts by the
same amount, keeping the pinion ring-gear
backlash unchanged.
!
If the total pre-loading is higher than the
required range, unscrew the two ring nuts by the
same amount, keeping the pinion ring-gear
backlash unchanged.
