(6) Stake the locking collar of the nut to
the slot on the drive pinion shaft.
(7) Install a new o-ring on the bearing
housing.
(8) Install original shim on bearing
housing assembly and install drive
pinion assembly into middle gear case.
NOTE:
It may be helpful to temporarily in-
stall the long mounting screw through
the bearing housing and shim.
B. Bearing Housing Cap Clearance
(1) Install the original thrust shim.
Install the housing cap without a
gasket. The sealing surfaces must be
clean to obtain an accurate measure-
ment.
(2) Hold the housing cap in position.
Insert a feeler gauge between the cap
and the case. If necessary, select
an appropriate thrust shim to achieve
specified
gap.
Cap to housing gap (no gasket):
0.2 - 0.25 mm (0.0079 - 0.0098 in)
(3) When gap is adjusted properly, remove
cap. Install new housing cap gasket.
Reinstall cap and tighten screws to
specified torque.
C. Gear Lash
(1) Check middle gear lash.
See Section 5
(2) To reduce gear lash, remove the drive
pinion
assembly and reduce the
thickness of the bearing housing shim-
(s). By combining available shims it is
possible to decrease total shim thick-
ness in 0.05 mm steps.
