DIFFERENTIAL CARRIER ASSEMBLY

(5)

If new cups (92 and 96) are to be installed, press the cups into bearing cage (95) using suitable sleeve.

Make sure the cups are firmly against the cage shoulders.

(6)

Insert the pinion shaft (90), bearing assembly (91), and bearing assembly (97) in the bearing cage (95) and

position the spacer (93) over the pinion shaft.

(7)

Press the forward bearing (97) firmly against the spacer (93).

Rotate the bearing cage (95) several revolutions to assure normal bearing contact.

While in the press under pressure, check the bearing preload torque. Wrap a soft wire around the cage pilot

and pull on a horizontal line with a pound scale. (If the press is not equipped with a pressure gage, the pin-

ion nut may be tightened to the correct torque and the preload checked in a vise).
