09229-55010
Total preload (at starting):
Drive pinion preload plus 0.48 to 1.43 N*m (4.89 to 14.58 kgf*cm, 4.25 to 12.66 in.*lbf)

37. INSTALL REAR DRIVE PINION NUT

Using a chisel and a hammer, stake the drive pinion nut.

38. REMOVE REAR DIFFERENTIAL CARRIER

Remove the differential carrier from the overhaul attachment.
NOTICE:
Clean the fitting surface between the differential carrier and carrier cover.

39. INSTALL REAR DIFFERENTIAL BREATHER PLUG OIL DEFLECTOR

Clean the seal packing attached on the differential carrier and carrier cover using a scraper and wire brush. Then remove the oil with white gasoline or equivalent.
NOTICE:
Do not scratch the fitting surface.

Install the rear differential breather plug oil deflector to the rear differential carrier cover.
Torque:
7.0 N*m{ 70 kgf*cm , 62 ft.*lbf }

40. INSTALL REAR DIFFERENTIAL CARRIER COVER

Apply FIPG to the differential carrier at the position shown in the illustration.
FIPG:
08826-00090, THREE BOND 1281 or equivalent
NOTICE:
1. Apply the seal packing in drops, approximately 2 to 3 mm (0.08 to 0.12 in.) in diameter entirely.
2. Overlap the seal packing at least 10 mm at the beginning and the end of application.
3. Install the differential carrier cover within 3 minutes of application.

Install the differential carrier cover with the 8 bolts.
Torque:
47 N*m{ 475 kgf*cm , 35 ft.*lbf }
NOTICE:
Do not fill the oil or drive immediately after installing the differential carrier cover. Leave the vehicle for at least 1 hour. Also, avoid sudden acceleration and deceleration for at least 12 hours after application.

41. INSTALL REAR DIFFERENTIAL CARRIER COVER BREATHER PLUG

Install the breather plug to the carrier cover.
Torque:
21 N*m{ 210 kgf*cm , 15 ft.*lbf }

42. INSTALL REAR DIFFERENTIAL DRAIN PLUG

Using a hexagon wrench (10 mm), install the differential drain plug with a new gasket.
Torque:
49 N*m{ 500 kgf*cm , 36 ft.*lbf }

43. INSTALL NO.1 REAR DIFFERENTIAL MOUNT CUSHION

HINT:

Perform this operation only when the No.1 rear differential mount cushion is replaced.

Using SST, install a new No.1 rear differential mount cushion.
SST
09570-24010
NOTICE:
1. Temporarily install the mount cushion to the member in order to prevent it from tilting and install the SST.
2. Be sure to use the SST with the correct combination.
3. Make sure that the SST contacts the entire circumference of the mount cushion.

44. INSTALL NO.2 REAR DIFFERENTIAL MOUNT CUSHION

HINT:

Perform this operation only when the No.2 rear differential mount cushion is replaced.

Using SST, install a new No.2 rear differential mount cushion.
SST
09570-24010
NOTICE:
1. Temporarily install the mount cushion to the member in order to prevent it from tilting and install the SST.
2. Be sure to use the SST with the correct combination.
3. Make sure that the SST contacts the entire circumference of the mount cushion.
