Ring & Pinion Break-In Procedure:
All new 3rd members require a break-in
period to prevent damage from overheating.
Any overloading or over-heating during this
periods can cause the gear oil to break down
resulting in ring & pinion failure.
- After
installation drive lightly for 20-30
minutes and then allow the diff to cool
for at least two hours.
- Avoid
heavy throttle use during the first 500
miles.
- Do not
tow a trailer during the first 500
miles.
- Change
oil after 500 miles to remove any
particles suspended in the oil.
This may seem
unnecessary but it is very easy to damage
the differential by loading it before the
gear set is completely run in. New ring &
pinion gears create excess heat when they
are new. This excess heat can damage the
heat treatment of the gears.
