Differential - Positive Traction: Overhaul: Reassembly
- Lubricate all parts before reassembly. Secure differential case in a soft-jawed vise. Install clutch packs and side gears in their original cavities. See Figure . Install pinion gears and thrust washers into case and mesh teeth with side gears. Install Differential Gear Rotator (T84P-4205-A for 7.5" ring gear, T80P-4205-A for 8.8" ring gear) for alignment of pinion gears.
- Rotate pinion gears and thrust washers until gear bores align with case pinion shaft holes. Remove rotator shaft. Use a soft-faced hammer to drive "S" spring into case. Install pinion shaft and lock bolt temporarily. DO NOT tighten lock bolt at this time, as it will be tightened when axles are installed.
