Rear Unit End Play Check

- Tools Required
- J 8001-3 Dial Indicator
- J 8520 Cam Lobe Lift Indicator - Dial Indicator Adapter Set





1. Assemble the J 8520 by attaching the threaded rod and the dial indicator holder to one of the bolt holes on the transmission case.
2. Push the output shaft (671) in to take up any slack.
3. Assemble J 8001-3 and mount the tool on the holder. Index the tool to the end of the output shaft (671).
4. Set the J 8001-3 to 0.
5. Move the output shaft (671) in and out, noting the amount of end play. The correct end play is between 0.127 - 0.635 mm (0.005 - 0.025 inches).

IMPORTANT: During reassembly, the rear end play check must be repeated to verify the accuracy of the selective washer.

6. Retain this measurement for future reference.
7. Remove the tools from the transmission.
