AR03.20-P-4291-03AV Determine crankshaft bearing axial play

Test specifications for crankshaft bearing clearance:

Assignment of thrust washers to crankshaft M 112, 113:

Special Tools:

Component Identification:

The thrust plates are assigned to the fitted bearing cap using the numbers 1 and 0 (arrow). These are engraved on the journal of the crankshaft. The fitted thrust plates must have the same identification and the oil grooves of the thrust plates must point to the crankshaft journals.

Component Identification:

1 Install dial indicator (2) with extension and dial indicator holder (1).
2 Press crankshaft with a screwdriver on one side up to support (arrow) and hold.
3 Set scale of dial gage (2) to zero.
4 Press crankshaft with a screwdriver on the other side up to support (arrow) and hold.
5 Read off the measured value on the dial indicator (2).
The measured value corresponds to the axial play of the crankshaft.
