Pinion Shaft Bushing Installation (to Gear-
case Cover)
1. See Figure 3-62. Using an arbor press, install pinion
shaft bushing (16) in its gearcase cover (17) so that
bushing is flush with cover boss. There is no need to ori-
ent this particular bushing in any specific position of rota-
tion within the gearcase cover bore.
2. Although the original pinion shaft bushing is not "pinned,"
the replacement bushing must be secured, from possible
rotation within the cover bore, by installation of a dowel

gearcase cover), centering the drill bit on the cover bore
circle (hole is drilled half in bushing OD and half in cover
bore ID).
3. Drive a new dowel pin no more than 0.20 in. (5.08 mm)
below the bushing face. Carefully peen edges of hole to
lock the pin in place.
4. After you install a new bushing in gearcase cover, line-
ream the bushing to the correct size. See

NOTE
Installing and reaming crankcase and gearcase cover

bushings may alter the center distances between mating
gears and may result in an increase in gear noise. For
quiet-running gears, the gears should be matched to the
center distances.
Bushings in right crankcase half serve as pilots for ream-
G
ing gearcase cover bushings and must, therefore, be
reamed to size first.
After reaming any bushing, check shaft fit in the bushing.

It may be necessary to make a second pass with reamer
to attain proper fit.
