6. LOOSEN REAR NO. 1 DIFFERENTIAL SUPPORT
HINT:
Loosen the bolts only when removal of the rear No. 1 differential support is required.
7. REMOVE REAR DIFFERENTIAL CARRIER ASSEMBLY
NOTICE:
-
Do not damage the contact surface when removing the rear differential carrier assembly.
-
The remaining oil may leak out when removing the rear differential carrier assembly.
-
Securely support the rear differential carrier assembly while performing this step to avoid excessively tilting or dropping the rear differential carrier assembly.
-
Remove the bolts and nuts with the rear differential carrier assembly secured.
(a) Disconnect the vacuum hose from the electro magnetic control coupling sub-assembly.
|
|
(b) Support the rear differential carrier assembly with an engine lifter using 2 attachments or equivalent tools as shown in the illustration.

|
|
(i) Lower the rear differential carrier assembly slowly to remove the rear differential carrier assembly.
NOTICE:
-
Do not damage the vacuum hose and electro magnetic control coupling wire harness.
-
Move the engine lifter forward and backward as necessary to prevent the rear differential carrier assembly from contacting the rear suspension member sub-assembly.
