4-22 SHAFT DRIVE AND DIFFERENTIAL
BACKLASH
Measure
the
backlash
of the
differential gear using
the
dial
gauge,
as
shown. Take backlash readings
at
several places
while
turning the flange slightly
in
each direction
and
securely
holding the differential driven gear.
Read
the
total
backlash
on
the
dial gauge.
If
the backlash
is not
within specification,
the
shim thickness
must
be
changed
and the
backlash checked
until
it is
within
specification.
Refer
to the chart at the right for the appropriate
shim thickness.
