What is the checking distance for ring and pinion?

What is the checking distance for ring and pinion?

Each motive gear and Motive Gear Performance ring gear and pinion is prerun and marked on the pinion face with its proper depth setting called the “Checking Distance”. This dimension is from the face of the pinion to the axle center-line. A setting tool must be used to measure the checking distance.

Where can I find differential ring and pinion?

You can also find links to our differential ring and pinion by application data that provide a detailed list of differential components for the most popular differentials, the links are listed below the instruction set. Be sure to ask about our speciality fluids for your differential, we also offer pois fluid.

Which is the correct Shim for Pinion position?

Pinion position shim correct. Increase backlash. (1) Decreasing backlash moves the ring gear closer to the pinion. Drive pattern (convex side of gear) moves slightly lower and toward the toe. Coast pattern (concave side of gear) moves lower and toward the toe. (2) Increasing backlash moves the ring gear away from the pinion.

What kind of axle gear does a GM RPO have?

GM RPO Axle Code Notes RPO Axle Type G81 Positraction (Rear) G86 Limited Slip (Rear) G87 8.5″ Ring Gear G89 7.5″ Ring Gear

What should the pinion be on a Silverado Sierra?

Mine checked out to be .015mm which is in the middle of the preferred .013-.018mm per the service manual. You can also check the pattern of the stock gears as well and take some pictures of that. Remember you will be replacing both the ring gear and pinion gear so this will not interfere with set up of the new gears, the marking compound that is.

Why do you need two people for Pinion change?

The Backlash mentioned that you checked in step 14 is why you need two people. Backlash is the amount of space in-between one pinion tooth and two ring gear teeth. So that you get the most accurate pattern, spin the part of the ring gear that is marked up to the pinion gear.

How to check the ring and pinion tooth count?

This can be checked by dividing ring gear tooth count by the pinion tooth count. e.g. (Ring gear tooth count 35 T, pinion gear Tooth count 10 T, 35 divided by 10 = 3.50:1. 3. Many differential cases have many thousands of miles of service. Check all threads in the case for ware. It may be necessary to chase the treads to clean and align threads. 4.
