   1. Using a vernier caliper, measure the length indicated by (A) in the illustration. (Step *2)
      NOTE:

      • Measure at several points to ensure that the differential mount cushion is pressed in evenly.
      • Do not measure on a weld bead.
   2. Repeat the steps *1 and *2 to press the differential mount cushion into the rear suspension member sub-assembly until the length indicated by (A) in the illustration is within the specification.

      Reference Length (A)

      10.5 to 11.5 mm (0.414 to 0.452 in.)

   3. Remove SST. Using a vernier caliper, measure the differential mount cushion protrusion length indicated by (B) in the illustration and ensure that the measured length is within the specification.

      Standard Length (B)

      4.5 to 5.5 mm (0.178 to 0.216 in.)

Torque: 8.0 N*m (82 kgf*cm, 71 in.*lbf)

      • Keep supporting the rear suspension member sub-assembly until the installation has been completed.
   2. Raise the rear suspension member sub-assembly until there is no clearance between the rear suspension member sub-assembly and vehicle.
   3. Install the rear suspension member sub-assembly with the 2 bolts and 2 nuts.
