Case Assembly Removal and Installation

Removal and Installation





1. Remove the output shafts (A) from the differential case assembly using the pry bars (B).





2. Remove the ten mounting bolts in a crisscross pattern in several steps, then remove the differential case assembly.





3. Remove the dirt and oil from the sealing surfaces. Apply liquid gasket (P/N 08718-0001) to the sealing surface. Be sure to seal the entire circumference of the bolt holes to prevent oil leakage.

NOTE:
^ If 5 minutes have passed after applying liquid gasket, reapply it and assemble the housings.
^ Allow it to cure at least 20 minutes after assembly before filling the differential with oil.





4. Install the differential case assembly, then torque the 10 mounting bolts in a crisscross pattern in several steps.
