Front Differential Carrier Assembly

Caution: Low bearing pre-load will cause premature failure of the front differential drive pinion gear.

Procedure

1. Use a dial or beam torque wrench with DT-47793 rotating tool to measure turning torque.
2. If the turning torque is not within specifications, the transfer gear assembly and differential bearing thrust washer is incorrect and must be corrected. Refer to Front Differential Drive Pinion Gear Bearing Thrust Washer and Front Differential Bearing Washer Measurement .
