c. Remove the differential gears and spherical
washers Figure 8-24. Pull off both differential

Assembly
Pinion Depth Setting Procedure
Determine the pinion depth setting as follows:
NOTE: See page 8-15 for general guidance on
crownwheel and pinion adjustment.
1. Assemble the pinion inner bearing and its cup on a flat
surface.
2. Place the pinion bearing measuring cup over the bearing
assembly Figure 8-25. Measure gap A. Add tool depth of
30.1 mm. (1.18 in) to gap A to give bearing depth.
3. Find the mounting distance value B Figure 8-26 on the
pinion and deviation C Figure 8-27 on the drive head
housing. Both units are in millimeters. To convert
millimeters to inches, multiply millimeters by 0.03937.
4. If dimension B is positive, add it to the bearing depth. If
dimension B is negative, subtract it from the bearing
depth. See example Crownwheel and Pinion Adjustment
on page 8-15.
5. If dimension C is positive, subtract it from the total. If
dimension C is negative, add it to the total. See example
Crownwheel and Pinion Adjustment on page 8-15.
6. Subtract the result from the standard value of 31.19 mm
(1.23 inches) to give the required shim thickness. See
example Crownwheel and Pinion Adjustment on
page 8-15.
