Manual Transmission/Transaxle: Adjustments

MAINSHAFT/COUNTERSHAFT - END-PLAY

Special Tools:











NOTE: The following procedure must be performed, when a shaft or tapered bearing has been replaced. The measurement is performed with all shims removed from the front adapter.

1. Install input shaft (2) into front adapter.





2. Install fourth gear synchronizer rings (1) on input shaft (2).
3. Install mainshaft and countershaft.
4. Install the case and tighten the bolts to 34 Nm (25 ft. lbs).

MAINSHAFT BEARINGS END-PLAY





1. Rotate input shaft/mainshaft several time to seat the bearings.
2. Screw dial indicator Stud into the case.
3. Attach a dial indicator (1) to the stud and set dial indicator (1) plunger on the end of the mainshaft (2).
4. Zero the dial indicator (1), then push up on the input shaft and record the dial indicator end-play measurement.
5. Subtract 0.0127 - 0.0889 mm (0.0005 - 0.0035 in.) from the recorded dial indicator end-play measurement. The remainder is the shim thickness needed behind the input shaft bearing cup in the front adapter.

COUNTERSHAFT BEARINGS END-PLAY





1. Rotate countershaft several time to seat the bearings.
2. Screw Stud into the case.
3. Attach a dial indicator (1) to the stud and set dial indicator (1) plunger on the end of the countershaft (2).
4. Zero dial indicator, then pull up on the countershaft and record the dial indicator end-play measurement.
5. Subtract 0.0127 - 0.0889 mm (0.0005 - 0.0035 in.) from the recorded dial indicator end-play measurement. The remainder is the shim thickness needed behind the countershaft bearing cup in the front adapter.
