Preparing the Parts for Assembly
Coat the teeth of the side gears and both sides of the
thrust washers with medium grease. Also place a little grease in
each of the four holes in each driver. The grease will help hold
the parts in place later and assist with functioning until the gear
oil circulates.
Assembly of the LOCK-RIGHT Parts into the
Differential Case
1. Place a thrust washer into the bottom of the case,
smoothest side up, and place the gear that formerly was in the
top of the case into the bottom (Figure 6).
2. Place a driver onto the side gear in the case with the
teeth meshed (see Figure 7).
3. Install the pinion shaft block and the pinion shafts
(see sections a and b below). Be very careful to not let the shafts
become caught on the driver or the block or on each other as
they come through! Keep the retaining pin holes in the shaft(s)
lined up with thoes in the case and finish driving them in. If they
are hard to insert, use a brass or plastic mallet to drive them to
avoid damaging the ends. If the shafts will not insert all the way
because the block appears to be too thick, thinner thrust wash-
ers will be needed. Either purchase them from your dealer or
reduce them in thickness with a surface grinder. Only a few thou-
sandths of an inch may need to be removed.
a) Four-pinion case: Place the pinion shaft
block into the center of the driver. (The two
stub shafts in your kit will not be used.) Drive
the two short shafts part way into the block
first to help hold it and then drive in the long
shaft (Figure 7).
b) Two-pinion cases: Place the two stub shafts
in your kit into the pinion shaft block, and
place the assembly into the center of the driv-
er. Spread the shafts apart with a screwdriver
(Figure 8). Drive in the long shaft past the two
stub shafts (Figure 9). The case will hold the
shafts in place.
