New Shimming procedure
(continued)
• Step 7) Using a feeler gauge between the tool face and the gear
teeth measure for the (0.64mm) .025 distance between
the gear teeth and the face of the shimming tool. If a
change is required the shims come in (.0254mm) .001
increments. Make the changes and recheck for the
(0.64mm) .025 distance between the gear teeth and the
face of the tool.
• Step 8) Next loosen the U-joint assembly retainer nut and
remove the gear and bearing assembly, using caution to
prevent damaging the shims in the snout.
• Step 9) You now will place a (1.62mm) .064 shim race thickness
as a starting point into the drive unit under the driven gear
or the original shim race that was removed when the unit
was disassembled.
• Step 10) Now install the driven gear set and the thrust bearing
into the housing.
