8. A method for mounting a front differential gear unit on a vehicle frame, the method comprising:
-
moving the front differential gear unit such that a first mount part provided in a front part of the front differential gear unit is positioned closer to a center of a vehicle in a vehicle width direction relative to a first mount bracket provided in a position of the vehicle frame which is, in the vehicle width direction, displaced from the center of the vehicle in the vehicle width direction and configured to support the first mount; in a state in which the first mount is positioned closer to the center of the vehicle in the vehicle width direction relative to the first mount bracket, moving the front differential gear unit until the first mount part contacts a first fixing part provided in the first mount bracket; and supporting, by attaching a second fixing part to the first mount bracket, the first mount part contacting the first fixing part so as to sandwich the first mount part between the first and second fixing parts in the vehicle width direction. - View Dependent Claims (9)
