Checking ring gear diff
Hi all.
Is the Toyota FSM method to check the ring diff is the best or is there any other method to check it ?

Plenty of generic Toyota info here:

and the info as above could be used in conjunction with the FSM

Why are you wanting to check it ?

Because my diff is still whining after changing my bearings so i guessed that was my ring who was bad but after checking with the Toyota method is appears that my ring is in good condition.
So i would like to be really sure before buying a new cwp kit.

How bad is the whine ? Do pedestrians look round expecting
to see a fire engine as you approach ? If the gears look good
(no excessive wear or pitting) and the contact patch and
backlash have been set correctly, then the noise is annoying,
but not a sign that the diff is going to fail. Try using a heavier
weight specialist diff oil. Sometimes that will reduce the noise,
and sometimes the noise will improve as the parts wear into
eack other. So give the car some good hard driving Smile
