SERVICE MANUAL6.Remove end nut and companion flange.7.FORWARD AXLE: Install pinion shaft driven gearand flange nut. Clamp pinion shaft driven gear infixture or jaws of vise using jaw shields or other softmaterial to avoid damage to gear.REAR REAR AXLE: Install seal in pinion cage andplace companion flange and flange nut on pinionshaft.8.Tighten pinion flange nut to specified torque (see"Torque Chart").9.Recheck pinion bearing preload.Assemble Pinion and Cage to Differential Carrier1.Place original shim pack on pinion cage and mountcage in diff carrier. Tap cage into place with a softhammer.2.Install pinion cage bolts and tighten to specifiedtorque (see "Torque Chart").Set Pinion Nominal DimensionTo establish pinion nominal dimension, which is thedistance from the face or finished end of the installedpinion to the centerline of the ring gear or cross shaft,proceed as follows:Obtain step plate and clamp assembly from SE-1065Pinion Setting Gauge set and attach it to diff carrierflange, locating step plate clamp screw over centerof pinion (Fig. 29).Fig. 29. Locating Step Plate Clamp1Step Plate Clamp Screw2Step Plate Clamp Asm.Install step plate under clamp screw and tightenscrew to hold step plate securely in position (Fig. 30).Fig. 30. Installing Step Plate1Step PlateThe step plate is necessary to project the face of thepinion where it can be measured by the gauge which ison the centerline of the drive gear.IMPORTANTBe certain lugs on step plate straddle the bearingstaking indentations on end of pinion.Mount assembled SE-1065 gauge in bearingbores of carrier (Fig. 31).
