Differential Carrier: Disassembly

  1. Using feeler gauge, measure differential carrier planetary pinion gear end play. End play should be .009-.025" (.23-.64 mm). See Figure. If end play is not as specified, repair differential carrier assembly as necessary.
    2. NOTE: Ensure pinion gears are installed in same direction as removed. If gears are installed upside down, noise may result due to change in wear pattern.
  2. Using screwdriver remove retaining ring from front differential carrier. See Figure. Remove planetary pinion gear pin, thrust washers, roller bearings, spacer and pinion gear. See Figure. Remove remaining planetary pinions in same manner. Remove differential carrier sun gear thrust bearing.
  3. Place final drive carrier components into oil pan to ensure roller bearings are not lost. Using drift pin and hammer remove differential pinion shaft retaining pin. See Figure. Remove differential pinion gear shaft, gears, pinion gear thrust washers, side gears and side gear thrust washers. See Figure.
