Assembly and Installation
68 MAINTENANCE MANUAL
10. If disassembled, assemble the inter-axle
differential.
A. Apply axle lubricant to all of the inter-axle
differential parts.
B. Install the pinion gears and the thrust wash-
ers in the spider.
C. Place the spider and pinion assembly in
one of the case halves of the inter-axle
differential.
D. Installtheremainingcasehalfovertherst
case half. Verify that the marks on each case
half are aligned.
E. Install four of the capscrews that fasten the
case halves together. Install the capscrews
so that the capscrews are the same distance
away from each other. Equally tighten the
capscrews to bring the case halves together.
F. Install the rest of the capscrews. Tighten
the capscrews to 45-55 lb-ft (60-75 Nm).
11. Install the inter-axle differential to the in-
put shaft so that the teeth in the differential
case are away from the helical drive gear.
Install the snap ring that fastens the case to
the shaft. Figure 5.75.
12. If removed, install the bearing cap for the
rear side gear into the differential case. Use
a press and a sleeve to install the cap into the
differential case. If a press is not available,
use a sleeve or a long, brass drift and a ham-
mer to install the cap. The cap is correctly in-
stalled when the bottom of the cap is seated
against the bottom of the bore. Figure 5.76.
NOTE: If you replace either the bearing cap or
the cone, replace both parts in a fully-matched
set from the same manufacturer.
13. If removed, install the bearing cone onto the
rear side gear. Use a press and sleeve to
install the cone onto the gear. The cone is
correctly installed when the bottom of the
cone touches the shoulder on the side gear.
14.Install the oil lter assembly and plug in the
suction line in front of the differential. Tighten
the screen and plug assembly to 48 lb-ft (65
Nm). Figure 5.77.
NOTE: If you replace either the bearing cap
or the cone, replace both parts in a fully-
matched set from the same manufacturer.
