Rear Differential Center Case Replacement
Rear Differential Center Case Replacement
1. Remove the rear differential. Rear Differential Removal
2. Remove the rear differential front mounting brackets (A) from the rear differential (B).
3. Remove the rear differential fluid temperature sensor cover (A), rear differential fluid temperature sensor (B), O-ring (C), and rear differential harness bracket (D) with bolts.
4. Remove the rear differential left side case (A), the rear differential right side case (B), the 10 x 12 mm dowel pins (C) from the rear differential center case (D).
5. Replace the rear differential center case.
6. Remove the dirt and oil from the sealing surfaces. Apply liquid gasket (P/N 08717-0004, 08718-0001, 08718-0003, 08718-0009) to the sealing surface. Make sure you seal the entire circumference of the bolt holes to prevent oil leakage.
NOTE:
- You must assemble the housings with you do in 5 minutes after applying the liquid gasket. If not, the sealing surface must be cleaned, and the liquid gasket reapplied.
- Allow it to cure at least 30 minutes after assembly before filling the differential with fluid.
Left side case/Right side case
7. Install the 8 x 12 mm dowel pins (A), the rear differential right side case (B), the rear differential left side case (C), and the mounting bolts (D) on to the rear differential center case (E).
8. Tighten the mounting bolts in a crisscross pattern in several steps.
9. Install the rear differential fluid temperature sensor (A), a new O-ring (B), the rear differential harness bracket (C), and the rear differential fluid temperature sensor cover (D) with bolts.
10. Install the rear differential front mounting brackets (A) from the rear differential (B).
NOTE: Install a lower surface of the guides (C) horizontally as shown, then tighten the new rear differential front mounting bracket bolts (D).
