PART<br />

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 />

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 />
