A. Lubricate the axle case support bushing with a
thin coat of grease and slide axle case support onto
knuckle pin.

B. Position support shims that were removed during
disassembly between axle case support and axle
case. Install mounting screws into axle case. Slowly
tighten screws while frequently checking for clear-
ance (vertical endplay) between axle case support
and knuckle pin. If binding of components is noted
before screws are fully tightened, add additional sup-
port shims. Torque screws from 57 to 67 ft−lb (77 to

D. Adjust endplay by increasing or reducing number
of axle case support shims.

After correct support shims have been determined,
remove mounting screws, apply heavy strength thread−
locking compound to screw threads, reinstall screws,
and torque from 57 to 67 ft−lb (77 to 91 N−m).

IMPORTANT:
Correct engagement between bevel
gears is critical to axle performance and durability.
7.
Temporarily install the bevel gear case/axle case as-
Figure 21
sembly on the axle support. Position a dial indicator at
the tooths center. Prevent the axle from turning and
measure the upper bevel gear to differential shaft gear
backlash (Fig. 21).

of this manual).
NOTE: Axle bearing shims are available in 0.004 in.
