Failure Analysis
Failure analysis is the process of determining the original cause of a component failure in order to keep it from happening again. Too often, when a failed component is replaced without determining its cause, there will be a recurring failure. If a carrier housing is opened, revealing a ring gear with a broken tooth, it is not enough to settle on the broken tooth as the cause of the carrier failure. Other parts of the carrier must be examined. For a thorough understanding of the failure and possible insight into related problems, the technician needs to observe the overall condition of the vehicle.
No one benefits when a failed component goes on the junk pile with the cause unknown. Nothing is more disturbing to a customer than a repeat failure. Systematically analyzing a failure to prevent a repeat occurrence assures quality service by avoiding unnecessary downtime and further expense to the customer.
The true cause of a failure can be better determined by knowing what to look for, determining how a piece of the equipment was running and learning about previous problems. In the case of a rebuilt rear axle, mismatched gears may have been installed. The more successful shops prevent repeat equipment failures by developing good failure analysis practices. Knowing how to diagnose the cause of a premature failure is one of the prerequisites of a good heavy-equipment technician.
How to Diagnose a Failure
The following five steps are an effective approach to good failure diagnostics.
1. Document the problem.
2. Make a preliminary investigation.
3. Prepare the parts for inspection.
4. Find the cause of the failure.
5. Correct the cause of the problem.
4. Ask: In what type of service is the truck being used?
5. Ask: Has this particular failure occurred before?
6. Ask: How was the truck working prior to the failure?
You need to be a good listener. Sometimes, insignificant or unrelated symptoms can point to the cause of the failure:
7. Ask: Was the vehicle operating at normal temperatures?
8. Ask: Were the gauges showing normal ranges of operation?
9. Ask: Was there any unusual noise or vibration?
After listening, review the previous repair and maintenance records. If there is more than one driver, talk to all of them and compare their observations for consistency with the service and maintenance records. Verify the chassis Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) number from the vehicle identification plate, as well as the mileage and hours on the vehicle.
Make a Preliminary Investigation
These steps consist of external inspections and observations that will be valuable when combined with the results of the parts examination.
1. Look for leaks, cracks or other damage that can point to the cause of the failure.
2. Make note of obvious leaks around plugs and seals. A missing fill or drain plug would be an obvious cause for concern.
3. Look for cracks in the carrier housing (harder to see, but sometimes visible).
4. Does the general mechanical condition of the vehicle indicate proper maintenance or are there signs of neglect?
5. Are the tires in good condition and do the sizes match?
6. If equipped with a torque-limiting device, is it working properly?
Document the Problem
Here are some guidelines for starting to learn about a failure, including questions to ask:
1. Talk to the operator of the truck.
2. Look at the service records.
3. Find out when the truck was last serviced.
During the preliminary investigation, write down anything out of the ordinary for later reference. Items that appear insignificant now may take on more importance when the subassemblies are torn down.
5
Inspection
Prepare the Parts for Inspection
After the preliminary investigation, locate the failure and pre ­pare the part for examination. In carrier failure analysis, it may be necessary to disassemble the unit.
7. When disassembling subassemblies and parts, do not clean the parts immediately since cleaning may destroy some of the evidence.
8. When tearing down the drive axle, do it in the recom­mended manner. Minimize any further damage to the unit.
9. Ask more questions when examining the interior of the carrier. Does the lubricant meet the manufacturer specifications regarding quality, quantity and viscos­ity? As soon as you have located the failed part, take time to analyze the data.
Find the Cause of the Failure
Here begins the real challenge to determine the exact cause of the failure. Keep in mind that there is no benefit to replacing a failed part without determining the cause of the failure. For example, after examining a failed part and finding that ure is caused by a lack of lubrication, you must determine if there was an external leak. Obviously, if there is an external leak, just replacing the failed gear is not going to correct the situation.
Another important consideration is to determine the specific type of failure which can be a valuable indicator for the cause of failure. The following pages show different types of failures and possible causes. Use this as a guide in determining types of failures and in correcting problems.
the fail -
Correct the Cause of the Problem
Once the cause of the problem has been determined, refer to the appropriate service manual to perform the repairs.
Clean
10. Wash steel parts with ground or polished surfaces in solvent. There are many suitable commercial sol ­vents available. Kerosene and diesel fuel are accept ­able.
WARNING
Gasoline is not an acceptable solvent because of its extreme combustibility. It is unsafe in the workshop environment.
11. Wash castings or other r clean in hot solution tanks using mild alkali solu­tions.
Note: If a hot solution tank is used, make sure parts are
heated thoroughly before rinsing.
12. Rinse thoroughly to remove all traces of the cleaning solution.
13. Dry parts immediately with clean rags.
14. Oil parts.
If parts are to be reused immediately: Lightly oil.
If parts are to be stored: Coat with oil, wrap in
corrosion resistant paper and store in a clean, dry place.

Inspection
Inspect Axle Housing
Axle housing inspection and repairs are limited to the follow ­ing checks or repairs:
Visually inspect axle housing for cracks, nicks and burrs on machined surfaces.
Check carrier bolt holes and studs for foreign mate -
rial.
Replace damaged fasteners. Look for loose studs or cross threaded holes.
CAUTION
Any damage which affects the alignment or structural integ ­rity of the housing requires housing replacement. Do not re­pair by bending or straightening. This process can affect the material’s properties and cause it to fail completely under load.
Check all seals and gaskets.
Note: Replace conventional gaskets with silicone rubber gas -
ket compound (included in many repair kits). The com ­pound provides a more effective seal against lube seepage and is easier to remove from mating surfaces
when replacing parts.
Inspect Components
Inspection
Inspect all steel parts for:
Notches, visible steps or grooves created by wear
Pitting or cracking along gear contact lines
Scuffing, deformation or discolorations. These are
signs of excessive heat in the axle and are usually related to low lubrication levels or improper lubrica ­tion practices.
In addition, inspect the following for damage:
Differential gearing
Bearings for loose fit on drive pinion, pilot bearing,
and differential bearings
All fasteners for rounded heads, bends, cracks or damaged threads.
Inspect machined surf aces of cast or malleable parts. They must be free of nicks, burrs, cracks, scoring, and wear.
Look for elongation of drilled holes, wear on sur ­faces machined for bearing fits and nicks or burrs in mating surfaces.

Inspection
Inspect Primary Gearing
Before reusing a primary gear set, inspect teeth for signs of excessive wear. Check tooth contact pattern for evidence of incorrect adjustment.
Check Input Shaft End-play (Forward Axle)
Note: Before disassembling the power divider, measure and
record input shaft end-play.
See illustration for steps 1-3.
1. Position dial indicator at yoke end of input shaft.
2. Push in on input shaft and zero the dial indicator.
3. Using a pry bar, move input shaft axially and mea­sure/record end-play.

Check Output Shaft End-play (Forward Axle)
See illustration for steps 1-3.
1. Position dial indicator at yoke end of output shaft.
2. Push in on output shaft and zero the dial indicator.
3. Using a pry bar, move input shaft axially and mea­sure/record end-play.

Adjustment
Correct end-play for a new assembly is 0.003" to 0.007". The maximum end-play for a used assembly is no more than
0.014". If end-play is incorrect, determine shim pack changes as follows:
Add shims to increase end-play
Desired end-play (New Parts) 0.003" to 0.007"
Measured end-play (Step 3) 0.001" – 0.001"
Add shims to provide desired end-play 0.002" to 0.006"
Remove shim to decrease end-play
Measured end-play (Step 3) 0.015" – 0.015"
Desired end-play (New Parts) 0.003" to 0.007"
Remove shims to provide desired end­play
0.012" to 0.008"
Adjus
tment
Correct end-play for a new assembly is 0.001" to 0.005". The maximum end-play for a used assembly is no more than
0.005". If end-play is incorrect, contact Dana.

Note: For models having the wheel differential lock option or a
carrier thrust bolt follow the steps below. These parts must be removed first before further removal of the wheel differential can take place.
Disassemble Wheel Differential – Models with Wheel Differential Lock
1. For ease of servicing, mount differential carrier in stand with differential lock facing up.
Note: To overhaul and reassemble the wheel differential, the
shift fork and clutch assembly must be removed from carrier. See instructions below.
2. Remove shift cylinder mounting screws, then lift shift cylinder, piston and o-ring assembly off carrier
and end of push rod.

Models with Ring Gear Thrust Bolt
Note: If the carrier model has a ring gear thrust bolt installed,
it must be backed away from the ring gear before you can remove the wheel differential.
1. Back off thrust bolt jam nut.
2. Back out thrust bolt from the carrier until the end of the bolt is flush with the inside of the carrier casting. This will allow enough clearance between the ring gear and the carrier pilot web.

1—Flange half 2—Plain half
2. Tighten the plain half adjuster until the bearing cup just starts to turn, this is a zero bearing preload.
3. Tighten the plain half adjuster two lug notches. Start with the notch at the top, count two notches coun­terclockwise on the adjuster, turn the adjuster so that the notch is facing straight up. You now have a two notch preload.

4. Use a rubber mallet to make certain that both bear­ing adjusters are fully seated.
5. Measure backlash. Make sure it is within specifica­tion of 0.006"– 0.018".
TIP: To give yourself room to adjust contact pattern, set it between 0.010"–0.012".

Forward Assembly
Change Backlash Setting
If you have too much backlash the ring gear needs to move closer to the pinion. Back off the plain half adjuster, count the number of notches you back it off, each notch equals about
0.003" of backlash.
IMPORTANT
In order to maintain the differential bearing preload you will need to turn the flange half bearing adjuster the same amount in the same direction. If you need more backlash reverse this procedure.
1. Install carrier bearings caps and torque carrier cap bolts to 350–428 lbs. ft. (475–580 N•m).
2. Recheck backlash: if the bearing adjusters were not in straight or fully seated the backlash will change.
c. Used Gearing: Reset to backlash recorded
before disassembly.
d. New Gearing: Backlash should be between
0.006 and 0.018".

Used Gearing - Correct Pattern
Used gearing will not usually display the square, even contact pattern found in new gear sets. The gear will normally have a “pocket” at the heal end of the gear tooth. The more use a gear has had, the more the line becomes the dominant char­acteristic of the pattern.

Note: Rear axle gearing is shown in the following instructions.
Correct tooth contact patterns and adjustments are the same for forward and rear axles.
1. Identify if new or used gearing.
2. Check tooth contact pattern (new or used gearing).
New Gearing - Correct Pattern
Paint six ring gear teeth 180° apart with marking compound and roll the gear to obtain a contact pattern. The correct pat­tern is slightly below center on the ring gear tooth with length­wise contact up off the toe. The length of the pattern in an unloaded condition is approximately one-half to two-thirds of the ring gear tooth in most models and ratios.
The pattern could vary in length and should cover 1/2 tooth or more (face width). The pattern should be evenly centered between tooth top land and root tooth toe.
and should be up off the

Adjust used gear sets to display the same contact pattern observed before disassembly. A correct pattern is up off the toe and centers evenly along the face width between the top land and root. Otherwise, the length and shape of the pattern are highly variable and is considered acceptable as long as it does not run off the tooth at any point.
1 - Pattern along the face width could be longer
Adjust Contact Pattern
If necessary, adjust the contact pattern by moving the ring gear and drive pinion.
Ring gear position controls the backlash. adjustment moves the contact pattern along the face width of the gear tooth.
Pinion position is determined by the size of the pin­ion bearing cage shim pack. It controls contact on the tooth depth of the gear tooth.

These adjustments are interrelated. As a result, they must be considered together even though the pattern is altered by two distinct operations. When making adjustments, first adjust the pinion, then the backlash. Continue this sequence until the pattern is satisfactory.
Forward Assembly
Adjust Pinion Position
If the gear pattern shows incorrect tooth depth contact, change drive pinion position by altering the shim pack. Used gears should achieve proper contact with the same shims removed from the axle at disassembly.
Note: Check ring gear backlash after each shim change and
adjust if necessary to maintain the 0.006" to 0.018" specifications.
If the pattern is too close to the top land of the gear tooth, remove pinion shims. Move pinion toward the ring gear.
If the pattern is too close to the root of the gear tooth, add pinion shims. Move pinion away from the ring gear.
Adjust Ring Gear Position (Backlash)
If the gear pattern shows incorrect face width contact, change backlash by adjusting the ring gear.
If the pattern is too close to the edge of the tooth toe, move the ring gear away from the pinion to increase backlash.
3. Loosen the bearing adjuster on the teeth side of the ring gear several notches.

Guidelines for Reusing Yoke
CAUTION
Due to the resiliency of the plastic driver, hammer rebound may occur when the seal is seated. Keep clear of the ham­mer rebound path!
6. Handle the seal by its outside diameter avoiding any contact with the seal lips. During installation, use the proper driver to make sure that the seal is mounted properly.
7. Use a rubber mallet to drive the seal tool in until the flange bottoms on the housing cover bore face. The flange will locate the seal at the proper depth.
Do not use the yoke if it has any damage on the seal surface (nicks or scratches).
The surface of the yoke and the lips of the seal form a critical interface which retains the axle’s lubricant while sealing the axle from outside contaminants. The condition of the yoke hub's surface is a very important factor in determining seal life.
Carefully signs of wear and damage. Do not reuse the yoke if there is noticeable wear, such as heavy grooving, beyond normal pol­ishing from the seal lips.
Note: Do not rework the yoke with abrasives such as emery
Do not use wear sleeves. Wear sleeves increase the yoke hub surface diameter and cause premature seal wear and
repeat seal failure.
inspect the seal surface area of the yoke hub for
paper or crocus cloth. Clean the surface of the yoke as necessary using chemical cleaners. Remove all trace of the chemicals from the yoke after cleaning.

Change Backlash Setting
If you have too much backlash, the ring gear needs to move closer to the pinion. Back off the plain half-adjuster, counting the number of notches you back it off (each notch equals about 0.003" [0.08 mm] of backlash).
IMPORTANTIMPORTANT
IMPORTANT:
In order to maintain the differential bearing preload, you will need to turn the flange half-bearing adjuster the same amount in the same direction. If you need more backlash, reverse this procedure.
1. Install carrier bearing caps and torque carrier cap bolts to 330-360 ft. lbs. (447-488 N•m).
2. Recheck backlash: If the bearing adjusters were not in straight or fully seated, the backlash will change.
a. Used Gearing: Reset to backlash recorded
before disassembly.
b. New Gearing: Backlash should be between
0.008" and 0.018" (0.15- 0.46 mm).
Measure Ring Gear Runout
Measure Ring Gear Total
1. Measure ring gear total radial runout. (Indicator reading should not exceed 0.010" [0.25 mm]).

General Lubrication Information
Lubrication
The ability of a drive axle to deliver quiet, trouble-free operation over a period of years is largely dependent upon the use of good quality gear lubrication in the correct quantity. The most satisfactory results can be obtained by following the directions contained in this manual.
The following lubrication instructions represent the most current recommendations from Dana.
Approved Lubricants
General—Gear lubrications acceptable under military specifi­cation (MILSPEC) MIL-L-2105D (Lubricating Oils, Gear, Multipurpose) are approved for use in Spicer Drive Axles. The MIL-L-2105D specification defines performance and viscosity requirements for multigrade oils. It supersedes both MIL-L-2105B, MIL-L-2105C and cold weather specification MIL-L-10324A. This specification applies to both petroleum­based and synthetic based gear lubricants if they appear on the most current “Qualified Products List” (QPL-2105) for MIL-L-2105D.
Note: The use of separate oil additives and/or friction modifiers are not approved in Spicer Drive Axles.
Synthetic based—Synthetic-based gear lubricants exhibit superior thermal and oxidation stability, and generally degrade at a lower rate when compared to petroleum-based lubricants. The performance characteristics of these lubricants include extended change intervals, improved fuel economy, better extreme temperature operation, reduced wear and cleaner component appearance. The family of Spicer gear lubricants represents a premium quality synthetic lube which fully meets or exceeds the requirements of MIL-L-2105D. These products, available in both 75W-90 and 80/W-140, have demonstrated superior performance in comparison to others qualified under the MILSPEC, as demonstrated by extensive laboratory and field testing. For a complete list of Spicer approved synthetic lubricants contact your local Dana representative. See back cover of this manual for appropriate phone number.
Recommendations for Viscosity/Ambient Temperature
The following chart lists the various SAE grades covered by MIL-L-2105D and the associated ambient temperature range from each. Those SAE grades shown with an asterisk (*) are available in the Spicer family of synthetic gear lubricants. The lowest ambient temperatures covered by this chart are
-40°F and -40°C. Lubrication recommendations for those applications which consistently operate below this temperature range, must be obtained through Dana by contacting your local Dana representative.
Grade Ambient Temperature Range
75W -40°F to -15°F (- 40°C to -26°C)
75W-80 -40°F to 80°F (-40°C
75W-90* -40°F to 100°F (-40°C to 38°C)
75W-140 -40°F and above (-40°C and above)
80W-90 -15°F to 100°F (-26°C to 38°C)
80W-140* -15°F and above (-26°C and above)

Severe Service Lubrication Change Intervals – Severe service applications are those where the vehicle consistently operates at or near its maximum GCW or GVW ratings, dusty or wet environments, or consistent operation on grades greater than 8%. For these applications, the ON/OFF HIGHWAY portion of the chart should be used. Typical applications are construction, logging, mining and refuse removal.
Note: Clean metallic particles from the magnetic filler plug and drain plugs. Clean or replace the breather yearly to avoid lube contamination due to water ingestion.

Lubrication
Drain
Drain when the lube is at normal operating temperature (150°–200°F). It will run freely and minimize the time neces­sary to fully drain the axle, this insures the axle is flushed.
Unscrew the magnetic drain plug on the underside of the axle housing and allow the lube to drain into a suitable container.
Note: Dispose of all used lubricants properly by following dis-
posal methods approved for mineral or synthetic based oils.
After initial oil change, inspect drain plug for large quantities of metal particles. These are signs of damage or extreme wear in the axle. Clean the drain plug and replace it after the lube has drained completely. Inspect breather for clogging or cor­rosion. Clean or replace as necessary.
Fill
Front Axle
a. With vehicle on level ground, remove the filler hole
plug from the axle housing cover and fill the axle with approved lubricant until level with the bottom of the hole.
Note: Lube fill capacities (see chart) are basic guidelines and
will vary based on the angle the axle is installed in a par­ticular chassis. Torque fill plug to 40–60 lbs. ft. (54–82 N•m).
TIP: The axle can be filled through the axle housing breather hole. Fill until lube level is even with the bottom of filler hole in
axle housing rear cover.
1 - With axle on level surface, fill housing with oil to bottom of plug 2 - Temperature sensor mounting hole

Verify Wheel End-play Procedure
Verify that end-play meets specification using a dial indicator. An indicator with 0.001" (0.03 mm) resolution is required. Wheel end play is the free movement of the tire and wheel assembly along the spindle axis.
Correct end-play is 0.001"– 0.005" (0.025– 0.125 mm).
4. Attach a dial indicator with its magnetic base to the hub or brake drum as shown below:
5. Adjust the dial indicator so that its plunger or pointer is against the end of the spindle with its line of action approximately parallel to the axis of the spindle.
6. Grasp the wheel assembly at the 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock positions. Push the wheel assembly in and out while oscillating it to seat the bearings. Read bearing end-play as the total indicator movement.
CAUTION
If end-play is not within specification, readjustment is required.

Without Wheel Differential Lock
Lift the drive wheels completely off of the ground or damage will occur.
WARNING
Do not lift the front wheels (non-drive wheels). This alters the oil’s position in the drive axle, draining it away from the drive pinion and its bearings. If the pinion is rotated under these conditions for any period of time, bearings will overheat resulting in axle damage or failure.
If this is impossible to lift the drive wheels, remove all axle shafts to prevent gear rotation and cap the wheel hubs to prevent loss of lubricant and a possible road hazard. See the following section Proper Vehicle Towing with Wheel Differential Lock for removal procedure.

Theory of Operation
Power Divider Operation (Power Flow and Torque Distribution)
In operation, the power divider accepts torque from the vehicle driveline and distributes it equally to the two axles.
This assembly is of the two-gear design consisting of an input shaft, inter-axle differential, output shaft and two con­stant-mesh helical gears.
With Lockout Engaged (Inter-Axle Differential is Operating)
5
The inter-axle differential compensates for minor variations in speed between the two axles, the same way the wheel differential works between the two wheels of a single drive axle. This unit also acts as a central point in distribution of torque to the two axles.
The power divider also includes a driver-controlled, air­operated lockout. When lockout is engaged, it mechanically prevents inter-axle differentiation for better performance under poor traction conditions.

The differential distributes torque equally to both axles.
Theory of Operation
With Lockout Engaged (Inter-Axle Differential is Not Operating)
Lockout should only be engaged when both axles are rotat­ing at the same speed. Operation should be limited to low­traction situations and should be disengaged when normal traction returns. Failure to do so will result in poor handling and damage to the axle components.

Note: Varied road surface conditions can result in unequal
torque distribution between the two axle assemblies.
CAUTIONCAUTION
Prolonged operation with the lockout engaged can dam­age axle and driveline components.

Theory of Operation
Operate Wheel Differential Assembly
The Dana wheel differential lock is driver-controlled and oper­ated by a carrier mounted air-actuated shift unit. In operation, it positively locks the wheel differential to provide improved traction under adverse road conditions.
Control Systems for Differential Lock
Two systems may be used to control the differential lock operation.
Transmission Low-Range Interlock Control System
The wheel differential is locked manually with the transmis­sion in Low-Range. It is unlocked by the driver or unlocked when the transmission is shifted out of Low-Range.
Note: The interlock system is preferred for vehicles equipped
with an air-shifted, Low-Range transmission. It is designed to ensure the differential lock is not left engaged (and to prevent accidental engagement) when transmission is in high range.
Direct Driver-controlled System
Direct Driver-controlled System
The driver manually locks and unlocks the wheel differential, using a cab-mounted electric switch (or air valve). The follow­ing description assum
es the system includes a cab-mounted electric switch and a solenoid valve as shown in the illustra­tion. An air valve may be substituted for these components.
Operation is as follows:
1. With control switch in the “unlock” position, the wheel differential functions normally.
2. When the control switch is placed in the “lock” position, the air supply solenoid valve opens and air pressure activates the shift cylinder. The shift fork is moved to engage the curvic clutches, which, in turn, lock the wheel differential.
3. When the control switch is placed in the “unlock” position, air pressure supply to the shift cylinder is shut off and air pressure is released from the cylin­der. A compression spring moves the shift fork to disengage the curvic clutch and unlock the wheel differential.

Wheel Differential Lock
Theory of Operation
The Dana Wheel Differential Lock is an optional feature for Dana Axles. In operation, it positively locks the wheel differen­tial, to provide improved traction under adverse road condi­tions.
The differential lock is driver-controlled through an electric switch or air valve mounted in the cab. The locking mecha­nism is air-operated to engage a mechanical clutch and lock the wheel differential. It is spring-operated to disengage the lock and permit the wheel differential to function normally.
The wheel differential lock consists of three major assemblies.
1
1a
1b
Shift Cylinder Assembly: Operates a shift fork and push rod assembly.
Shift Fork and Push Rod Assembly: Engages and disengages the differential lock curvic clutch assembly
Curvic Clutch Assembly: Consists of a sliding clutch splined to a axle
shaft and a fixed clutch which is
splined to the differential case hub.
The differential lock also includes a selector switch (electric) which senses clutch engagement and sends an electrical sig­nal to a cab mounted indicator light (or an audible signal device).

Theory of Operation
Differential Lock Engaged
Air pressure applied to the shift cylinder moves the piston, push rod, shift fork and the sliding curvic clutch engages the fixed curvic clutch.
The sliding clutch is splined to the axle shaft. The fixed clutch is splined to the differential case hub. Engaging the two clutches locks the wheel differential thus preventing wheel differential action.
Differential Lock Disengaged
When air pressure at the shift cylinder is released, a compres­sion spring (mounted on the push rod) moves the push rod, shift fork and sliding clutch as an assembly. The sliding clutch moves out of engagement with the fixed clutch. The wheel dif­ferential is unlocked and operates normally.

Differential Lock Engagement Indicator
Differential lock engagement is detected by a switch (electric) mounted on the differential carrier. An actuator, mounted in the piston cover, operates the switch.
When the shift fork moves to engage the differential lock, the push rod actuator moves away from the switch, allows the switch to close and send an electrical signal to turn on a cab­mounted indicator light (or an audible signal).
When the shift fork moves to disengage the differential lock, the compression spring also moves the push rod actuator to contact the switch. The switch is opened and turns off the cab-mounted indicator light (or the audible signal).

Note: Fasteners using self-locking thread “patches” may be reused if not damaged, but should be secured by a few drops of Loctite #277 on threaded surface. Reused fasteners should be wiped clean of excess oil, special cleaning not required.
* Torque nut to 840 lb-ft. (1140 N•m), then continue tightening to align nut slot with nearest hole in pinion shank.
Correct torque values are extremely important to assure long Dana life and dependable performance. Under-tightening of parts is just as harmful as over-tightening.
Exact compliance with recommended torque values will assure the best results.
The data includes class and torque tightening values.
