Caution / Notice / Hint

NOTE:
  • When replacing the rear drive pinion companion flange sub-assembly and rear differential carrier oil seal, be sure to check the preload.
  • If the rear drive pinion companion flange sub-assembly and rear differential carrier oil seal were replaced without checking the preload, replace the torque vectoring differential carrier assembly.
  • Before installation of each part, thoroughly clean and dry it. Then apply gear oil to it. Do not use alkaline chemicals to clean aluminum parts, rubber parts or ring gear set bolts. Also, do not use non-residue solvent or other cleaning oils to clean O-rings, oil seals or rubber parts.
