Remove the propeller shaft.
(Refer to Propeller Shaft Assembly - "Propeller Shaft")
4.
Remove the coupling assembly.
(Refer to All Wheel Drive (AWD) System - "Direct Electro Hydraulic Actuator Coupling")
5.
Install a jack on the lower part of the differential.
6.
Remove the differential carrier assembly (A) after loosening the mounting bolts.
Tightening torque :
68.6 - 88.2 N·m (7.0 - 9.0 kgf·m, 50.6 - 65.0 lb·ft)

7.
Remove the differential carrier bracket (A) after loosening the mounting bolts.

Inspection
1.
After clearing, check for damage parts or abrasion. Follow the below method, if any are noticed.
Item
Identify
Gear set (drive pinion gear & drive gear)
The gear set must be replaced with a new one if the gear tooth is damaged (crack/pits/dents).
Bearing
The bearing must be replaced with a new one if the bearing roller or race is damaged (crack/pits/dents).
Oil seal
The oil seal must be replaced with a new one if disassembled.
Differential carrier
The carrier must be replaced with a new one if the inside of the carrier bearing is damaged (crack/pits/dents) or a crack is found inside/ouside.
Companion flange
The pinion oil seal must be replaced with a new one if the contact surface is damaged (crack/pits/dents).

2.
Check the tooth contact pattern.
Tooth contact
Contact state
Solution
Standard contact

 
 
1. Heel contact

Increase the thickness of the pinion height adjusting shim, and position the drive pinion closer to the center of the drive gear.
Also, for backlash adjustment, reposition the drive gear further from the drive pinion.

2. Face contact

3. Toe contact

Decrease the thickness of the pinion height adjusting shim, and position the drive pinion further from the center of the drive gear.
Also, for backlash adjustment, reposition the drive gear closer to the drive pinion.

4. Flank contact


  
1)
Tooth contact pattern is a method for judging the result of the adjustmentof drive pinion height and final drive gear backlash. The adjustment of drivepinion height and final drive gear backlash should be repeated until the toothcontact patterns are similar to the standard tooth contact pattern.
2)
When you cannot obtain a correct pattern, the drive gear and drive pinionhave exceeded their limits. Both gears should be replaced as a set.
