ADJUSTMENT BEFORE REASSEMBLY

SPACER SELECTION FOR DIFFERENTIAL CASE
PRELOAD ADJUSTMENT

1. Put solders (1.6 mm diameter, about 10 mm long)

in the illustrated positions of the transaxle case.

2. Install the taper bearing outer race and differential

assembly into the transaxle case.
NOTE: If necessary, replace the differential case
and taper bearing before carrying out these
adjustments.

m

4. Remove the clutch housing, and then remove the

differential assembly.

5. Remove the outer race and take out crushed

solders.

6. Measure the thickness of the crushed solder with

a micrometer and select a spacer that will provide
the standard preload value.

>>E<< TRANSAXLE CASE INSTALLATION

CAUTION

Squeeze sealant evenly onto the transaxle
housing. Do not leave gaps or excess amounts,
otherwise oil leaks are likely.

1. Apply a 2 mm diameter bead of sealant

(Mitsubishi Genuine Part number MD997740 or
equivalent) as illustrated onto the transaxle case.
NOTE: Be sure to install the transaxle case onto
the transaxle housing while the sealant is still wet
(within 15 minutes).

2. Align the transaxle case and expand the snap

ring. After the case is on far enough for the snap
ring to ride on the bearing, release the snap ring.
Push down on the transaxle case, twisting it from
side to side until the case contacts the housing.

3. Tighten the transaxle case mounting bolts to the

specified torque.

Tightening torque: 44

±

5 N

⋅

4. Place the transaxle upside down and let the snap

ring fit in the groove by the output shaft's own
weight.
NOTE: After installation, keep the sealed area
away from oil for approximately one hour.
