Setting the Pinion Gear Depth

This formula is used to calculate the amount of shims that
are required:
C - B - A + (DV) = Pinion Shim (mm)
DV = The number on the face of the pinion gear.
A = The distance in millimeters from the face of the
pinion gear to the top of the inner pinion bearing race
(see below)
B = 54.
C = The number on the edge of the differential side
plate closest to the input shaft (see next page).
D = The number on the edge of the differential side
plate farthest from the input shaft (see next page).
E = The distance in millimeters from the rear of the
drive housing to the face of the pinion gear (see next
page).
Once a shim has been selected and the pinion gear is
installed, confirm that:
