DISASSEMBLY
1. CHECK RUNOUT OF COMPANION FLANGE
Using a dial indicator, measure the runout of the companion
flange vertical and lateral.
Maximum
Vertical runout: 0.09 mm (0.0035 in.)
Lateral runout: 0.09 mm (0.0035 in.)
If the runout is greater than the maximum, replace the compan-
ion flange.
2. CHECK RING GEAR RUNOUT
Using a dial indicator, measure the ring gear runout.
Maximum runout: 0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)
3. CHECK RING GEAR BACKLASH
Using a dial indicator, measure the ring gear backlash.
Backlash:
2WD: 0.08
− 0.13 mm (0.0031 − 0.0051 in.)
4WD: 0.13 − 0.18 mm (0.0051 − 0.0071 in.)
If the backlash is not within specification, adjust the side bear-
ing preload or repair if necessary.

If the backlash is not within the specification, install the side
gear thrust washers of differential thickness.
