Tightening torque
Front drive (differential) gear case cover bolt
(a): 23 N·m (2.3 kgf-m, 16.5 lb-ft)
5) Rotate the front drive (differential) gear several turns
in each direction. This will provide a contact pattern
on the coated teeth of front drive (differential) gear.
6) Remove the front drive (differential) gear and
compare the coated teeth to the examples shown in
[A], [B] and [C]. If tooth contact is found to be
incorrect (example [A] and [C]), the shim must be
changed and the tooth contact should be re-check
until correct (example [B]).
