DIFFERENTIAL CARRIER (MERITOR RS17.19.21&23)
DF02–46
20.
RING GEAR BACKLASH ADJUSTMENT
Measure the outer diameter of ring gear for approximate pitch diame-
ter.
•
If the old gear set is installed:
Adjust the backlash to the setting that
was measured before the carrier was disassembled.
•
If a new gear set is installed:
Adjust the backlash to the correct
specification for new gear sets.
After checking the tooth contact patterns, the backlash can be
adjusted within specification limits, if needed. To change the location
of the pattern use the following procedures.
(1)
Attach a dial indicator onto the mounting flange of the carrier.
(2)
Adjust the dial indicator so that the plunger or pointer is against the
tooth surface.
(3)
Adjust the indicator dial to ZERO. Hold the drive pinion in position.
(4)
After reading the dial indicator, rotate the differential and ring gear a
small amount in both directions against the drive pinion teeth.
•
If the backlash reading is within specifications:
Check the tooth
contact patterns.
•
If the backlash reading is not within specifications:
Adjust back-
lash as needed.
(5)
Loosen one bearing adjusting ring one notch then tighten the opposite
ring the same amount.
•
To increase backlash:
Move the ring gear away from the drive pin-
ion.
•
To decrease backlash:
Move the ring gear toward the drive pinion.
NOTICE
When you adjust backlash, move the ring gear only. Do not move the
drive pinion.
(6)
Repeat 20. (2) to (5) until the backlash is within specifications.
