8) While tightening flange nut gradually with flange holder (special
tool) and power wrench, set preload of pinion to specification.
NOTE:
Before taking measurement with spring balance or
torque wrench, check for smooth rotation by hand.
Bevel pinion bearing preload is adjusted by tightening
bevel pinion nut to crush spacer.
Therefore, be sure to use a new spacer for adjustment
and tighten pinion nut step by step and check for starting
torque (preload) as often as tightening to prevent over
crushing of spacer.
If exceeds specification given below during adjustment,
replace spacer and repeat preload adjustment proce-
dure. Attempt to decrease starting torque (preload) by
loosening pinion nut will not do.
Pinion bearing preload: 5.0 – 13.0 kg-cm (4.4 – 11.2 Ib-in.)
Spring balance reading: 1.0 – 2.6 kg (2.3 – 5.7 Ib)

Differential Case and Gears
1) After applying differential oil to side gear, pinions, pinion shaft,
washer and thrust washer, install them in differential case.
2) Measure thrust play of differential gear as follows.
Special Tool
(A): 09900-20606
(B): 09900-20701
Diff. gear thrust play: 0.01–0.37 mm (0.0004–0.014 in.)
Left side
Hold differential assembly with soft jawed vise and apply
measuring tip of dial gauge to top surface of gear.
Using 2 screwdrivers, move gear up and down and read
movement of dial gauge pointer.
