Inspection

NOTE: To prevent damage to the transfer housing, always use soft jaws or equivalent materials between the transfer housing and a vise.

Transfer Gear Backlash Measurement
1. Set a dial indicator (A) on the transfer companion flange (B); position the dial indicator tip (C) on the top of the bolt (D).





2. Measure transfer gear backlash.

Standard: 0.06-0.16 mm (0.002-0.006 in.)

Total Starting Torque Measurement
3. Rotate the transfer companion flange several times to seat the tapered roller bearings.
4. Measure staring torque at the companion flange (A) using a torque wrench (B) and a socket (C).





5. If the measurements are out of standard, disassemble the transfer assembly and repair it.
