11. INSPECT CENTER PLANETARY GEAR ASSEMBLY
a. Using a feeler gauge, measure the center planetary gear pinion thrust clearance.
Standard clearance: 0.12 to 0.68 mm (0.0047 to 0.0268 inch)
Maximum clearance: 0.73 mm (0.0287 inch)
If the clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the center planetary gear assembly





12. INSPECT NO. 3 1-WAY CLUTCH ASSEMBLY
a. Hold the rear planetary ring gear flange sub assembly, and then turn the 1-way clutch assembly
b. Check that the 1-way clutch assembly turns freely counterclockwise and locks when turned clockwise.





13. INSPECT REAR PLANETARY RING GEAR FLANGE SUB-ASSEMBLY
a. Using a caliper gauge, measure the inside diameter of the rear planetary ring gear bushing.
Maximum inside diameter: 32.175 mm (1.2667 inch)
If the inside diameter is greater than the maximum, replace the rear planetary ring gear.

14. INSPECT INTERMEDIATE SHAFT





a. Using a dial indicator, check the intermediate shaft runout.
Maximum runout: 0.08 mm (0.0031 inch)
If the runout exceeds the specification, replace the intermediate shaft with a new one.





b. Using a micrometer, check the outer diameter of the intermediate shaft positions shown in the diagram.
Standard diameter:
A: 25.962 to 25.975 mm (1.0221 to 1.026 inch)
B: 25.962 to 25.975 mm (1.0221 to 1.026 inch)
