9. Remove the bevel gear case/axle case assembly
from the axle support. Coat a new O-ring with grease
and temporarily install theaxlecover assembly.Position
a dial indicator at the tooths center. Prevent the axle
from turning and measure the lower bevel gear to axle
gear backlash (Fig. 29).
LOWER BEVEL GEAR BACKLASH:
0.004to0.016inch(0.10to0.40mm)
10.Adjust backlash by increasing or reducing axle bear-
ing shimthickness (seeAxle Shafts inthis section ofthis
manual).
NOTE: Axle bearing shims are available in 0.008 inch
(0.2 mm), 0.012 inch (0.3 mm) and 0.020 inch (0.5 mm)
thickness.
11.Tighten axle cover screws from 17 to 20 ft-lb (23 to
27 N--m).
12.Coat a new O-ring with grease and install the bevel
gear case/axle case assembly on the axle support.
Tighten mounting screws and nuts from 35 to 41 ft-lb
(47to56N--m)(Fig. 30).
Differential Shafts
The following procedures assume the rear axle assem-

Removal
IMPORTANT: Do not interchange right and left dif -
ferential shaft assemblies.
1. Remove the mounting screws, nuts and lock wash-

and O-ring from the axle support (Fig. 30).
2. Mark andpull thedifferential shaftassembly from the
axle support.
3. Remove the retaining ring and bevel gear (Fig 31).
4. Drive the differential shaft out of the bearings. Re-
move the bearings and bearing shims.
5. Inspect all gears, shafts, bearings and cases for
damage and wear. Replace components as necessary.
Installation
1. Press bearings onto differential shaft. Place correct
combination of bearing shims in axle support and drive
differential shaft and bearing assembly into axle sup-
port.
2. Install bevel gear and retaining ring.
3. Coat new O-ring with grease. Align differential shaft
