TM 5-3805-262-344-4. FRONT AND REAR AXLES DIFFERENTIAL ASSEMBLY MAlNTENANCE(CONT)a. DifferentialCarrier(Cont).REASSEMBLY (SHEET 5 OF 6)NOTEIf pinion (23) was replaced, go to step (32) below. Otherwise go to step(33)(32)(a)(b)(c)(d)(e)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38)4-230below.Determine required thickness of shims (13) as follows:Using micrometer, measure thickness of shims (13) removed during disas-sembly. Enter on line a below.Find number written on end of old pinion (23) shaft. First number (025)is an identification number indicating that pinion and ring gear are amatched set. Second number and + or - symbol indicate thickness of shimsneeded between differential carrier and cage. This number is inthousandths of an inch. Write the number and the symbol (example: +0.003) on line b below.If + symbol is used, subtract number on line b from line a and enteranswer on line c. If - symbol is used, add number on line b to line aand write answer on line c.Find number on end of new pinion (23) shaft. Write this number andsymbol on line d below.If + symbol is used, add line d to line c and write answer on line e. If- symbol is used, subtract line d from line c and write answer on linee. Number on line e is required thickness of shims (13).Apply air drying adhesive (siliconface on differential carrier (27).Install correct thickness of shimsApply air drying adhesive (siliconrubber gasket) to cage (18) mounting(13).rubber gasket) to shims (13).Install cage (18) and pinion (23) in differential carrier (27).Install eight washers (12) and capscrews (11). Alternately tighten cap-screws to 85 to 115 lb-ft.Install two bearing cups (6) on differential case and gear assembly.
