12. Use a rag and solvent to clean the threads of the carrier cap and carrier bore. Also clean the threads of the flange

half side threaded adjuster. The plain half side threaded adjuster will be replaced with new, discard old part.

13. Remove the bearing adjustment tool and replace the threaded cup assembly on the plain half side only.

14. Now reassemble the adjustment tool to hold the threaded bearing adjuster in place so the differential assembly

can be reinstalled into the carrier housing.

Note: There are two ways to make sure that the threaded cups are seated properly. If there is a misalignment,
reinstall the differential assembly at a slightly different angle.

15. Make sure there is no gap between the carrier threads and the cup threads.

16. Make sure that the bearings cage is parallel to the edge of the threaded cup.
