11. Install new pinion nut. Hold flange (1) with Holder C-3281 (2) and tighten the nut to 217 N.m (160 ft.
lbs.). Do not exceed minimum tighten torque 217 N.m (160 ft. lbs.).
12. With a torque wrench set at 352 N.m (260 ft. lbs.) Tighten pinion nut until pinion end play is eliminated.

13. Rotate pinion several times to seat bearings and verify pinion (1) rotates smoothly.
14. Slowly tighten the pinion nut in 6.8 N.m (5 ft. lbs.) increments until pinion torque to rotate is achieved.
Measure rotating torque frequently to avoid over crushing the collapsible spacer.

15. Measure pinion torque to rotate (PTTR) with an inch pound torque wrench (2).
Pinion Torque To Rotate is:
Original Bearings: 1.0 - 2.2 N.m (10 - 20 in. lbs.).
New Bearings: 1.7 - 2.8 N.m (15 - 25 in. lbs.).

16. Invert differential case and start two ring gear bolts. This will provide case-to-ring gear bolt hole
CAUTION: Never loosen pinion gear nut to decrease pinion rotating torque and
never exceed specified preload torque. Failure to follow these
instructions will result in damage.

alignment.
17. Invert differential case in the vise. Install new ring gear (2) bolts (1) and alternately tighten to 108 N.m
(80 ft. lbs.).
18. Install differential in housing.

19. Measure Total Torque to Rotate (TTTR) with an inch pound torque wrench (2). This will verify the
correct differential bearing preload.
Total Torque to Rotate (TTTR) is Pinion Torque To Rotate (PTTR) plus:
Gear Ratio 3.21: 0.53 - 0.87 N.m (4.6 - 7.7 in. lbs.)
Gear Ratio 3.55: 0.48 - 0.78 N.m (4.2 - 6.9 in. lbs.)
Gear Ratio 3.73: 0.45 - 0.75 N.m (3.9 - 6.6 in. lbs.)
If TTTR is high, decrease shim thickness equally on both sides of the differential and check TTTR
again. If TTTR is low, increase shim thickness equally on both sides of the differential and check
TTTR again.
20. Verify differential gear contact pattern.
REAR AXLE - 8 1/4
CAUTION: Never reuse the ring gear bolts. Failure to follow these instructions
will result in damage.
