Confirm correct model: Use SINOTRUK EPC system to verify compatibility with your VIN/chassis.
Inspect new gear: Check for cracks, chipped teeth, distorted splines, or surface pitting.
Clean all components: Remove old grease, debris, and carbon buildup from housing and mating parts.
Prepare tools: Dial gauge, micrometer, torque wrench, gear press, magnetic particle inspection (if available).
Disassemble Differential Carrier:
Drain gear oil and remove cover.
Mark housing halves for orientation.
Remove Old Axle Gear (AZ9981320166):
Extract carefully without damaging bearing seats or ring gear.
Install New Gear:
Press into place gently using proper tooling.
Ensure full seating and alignment.
Reinstall Planetary Pinions:
Mount four pinion gears onto cross shaft.
Add new thrust washers/shims to control end-play.
Adjust Gear Backlash:
Measure contact pattern and backlash.
Target clearance: 0.1 mm – 0.2 mm (per service manual).
Reassemble Housing:
Apply liquid gasket or replace paper seal.
Torque bolts evenly in crisscross pattern.
Refill with Gear Oil:
Use GL-5 85W/90 or higher-grade synthetic gear oil.
