Snorkel Gear Backlash Procedure
1.
Reassemble the snorkel tube and snorkel shaft
assembly by reversing the disassembly procedure
(see “Snorkel Shaft Removal / Disassembly”).
2.
After the 13T gear and bearing are pressed onto the
snorkel shaft (flush to the shoulder), install the
washer and new retaining ring.
3.
Press the gear back towards the retaining ring. Avoid
excessive force so the retaining ring is not damaged
or pre-stressed significantly.
NOTE: Failure to press the gear back against the
washer and retaining ring will lead to a gear
backlash change after vehicle is placed into
service.
4.
Apply a small amount of white lithium grease or Anti-
Seize on the threads of the snorkel tube.
5.
Install the snorkel shaft into the gearcase. Using the
Snorkel Tool (PA-50231), tighten the snorkel tube
until it is lightly seated in the transmission housing.
6.
Inspect the pinion shaft assembly. Replace bearings
if needed. Inspect each gear for damage, chips or
abnormally worn teeth.
NOTE:
If pinion shaft was disassembled, the
bearing cover must be installed on the shaft
before installing the 46T gear.
7.
Install the pinion shaft assembly. Be sure to properly
mesh the snorkel shaft bevel gear with the pinion
shaft bevel gear.
8.
Apply Loctite
®

to the threads of the bearing
cover retaining screws.
