Part 2

SHIFT FORK ASSEMBLY




OIL: Prior to reassembling, clean all the parts in solvent, dry them, and apply lubricant to any contact parts.

Clearance Inspection

NOTE: The synchro sleeve and the synchro hub should be replaced as a set.





1. Measure the clearance between each shift fork and its matching synchro sleeve.





2. If the clearance is more than the service limit, measure the thickness of the shift fork fingers.
- If the thickness of the shift fork fingers is not within the standard, replace the shift fork with a new one.
- If the thickness of the shift fork fingers is within the standard, replace the synchro sleeve with a new one.





3. Measure the clearance between the shift piece or shift fork and the shift arm B.





4. If the clearance is more than the service limit, measure the groove of the shift piece or shift fork.
- If the groove of the shift piece or shift fork is not within the standard, replace the shift piece or shift fork with a new one.
- If the groove of the shift piece or shift fork is within the standard, replace the shift arm B with a new one.

MBS SHIFT PIECE INSPECTION





1. Measure the width of the MBS shift piece.
If the width of the MBS shift piece is less than the service limit, replace the MBS shift piece.


SYNCHRO RING, GEAR INSPECTION

Inspection / Installation
1. Inspect gear teeth on all synchro hubs and synchro sleeves for rounded off corners, which indicate wear.





2. Install each synchro hub in its mating synchro sleeve, and check for freedom of movement.

NOTE: If replacement is required, always replace the synchro sleeve and synchro hub as a set.





3. When assembling the synchro sleeve and synchro hub, be sure to match the three sets of longer teeth (120 degrees apart) on the synchro sleeve with the three sets of deeper grooves in the synchro Hub.

CAUTION: Do not install the synchro sleeve with its longer teeth in the synchro hub slots because it will damage the spring ring.


SYNCHRO SLEEVE, SYNCHRO HUB INSPECTION / INSTALLATION




1. Inspect the synchro ring and gear.
2. Coat the cone surface of the gear with oil, and place the synchro ring on the matching gear. Rotate the synchro ring, making sure that it does not slip.
Measure the clearance between the synchro ring and gear all the way around.

NOTE: Hold the synchro ring against the gear evenly while measuring the clearance.

Synchro Ring-to-Gear Clearance:
Standard: 0.73 - 1.18 mm (0.029 - 0.046 inch)
Service Limit: 0.4 mm (0.02 inch)


If the clearance is less than the service limit, replace the synchro ring and synchro cone.
