SNORKEL GEAR BACKLASH

1. Reassemble the snorkel tube and snorkel shaft

assembly by reversing the disassembly procedure

(see "Snorkel Shaft Removal / Disassembly").

2. After the 13T gear and bearing are pressed onto the

snorkel shaft (flush to the shoulder), install the

washer and new retaining ring.

3. Press the gear back towards the retaining ring. Avoid

excessive force so the retaining ring is not damaged

or pre-stressed significantly.

Failure to press the gear back against the washer and

retaining ring will lead to a gear backlash change after

vehicle is placed into service.
