(1) Place overdrive unit in vertical position. Mount
it on blocks, or in workbench with appropriate size
mounting hole cut into it. Be sure unit is facing
upward for access to direct clutch hub. Also be sure
output shaft is not loaded and internal components
are moved rearward for accurate measurement.

planetary gear and into pilot bushing in output
shaft. Be sure tool bottoms against planetary
shoulder.

drive case (Fig. 172). Then position Dial Caliper
C-4962 over gauge tool.

through gauge tool slot until scale contacts end of
Gauge Alignment Tool 6312. Lock scale in place.
Remove dial caliper tool and note distance mea-
sured (Fig. 172).
