NUMBER<br />
Examples<br />
The following are part numbers for generoid<br />
gear sets.<br />
• 36786-K or 36786-K2 for the ring gear<br />
• 36787-K or 36787-K2 for the drive pinion<br />
In the following procedures, movement of the<br />
contact pattern along the length of the tooth is<br />
indicated as toward the heel or toe of the ring<br />
gear. Figure 5.48.<br />

OPTION<br />
Always check the tooth contact patterns on the<br />
drive side of the gear teeth. Figure 5.49.<br />

1.Adjust the backlash of a new gear set to either<br />
0.012-inch (0.305 mm) or 0.015-inch (0.380<br />
mm) depending on the size of the ring gear. Adjust<br />
the backlash of an old gear set to the setting<br />
that was measured before the differential<br />
was disassembled. See the procedure in this<br />
section.<br />
2. Apply a marking compound in approximately<br />
12 gear teeth of the ring gear. Rotate the ring<br />
gear so that the 12 gear teeth are next to the<br />
drive pinion. Figure 5.50.<br />
Figure 5.50<br />
3. Rotate the ring gear forward and backward<br />
so that the 12 gear teeth go past the drive<br />
pinion six times to get the contact pattern.<br />
Repeat, if needed, to get a more clear pattern<br />
