PINION GEAR SHIMMING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: This procedure is required only when replacing the front or rear
pinion bearings and races or the ring and pinion gears.
NOTE: To perform this procedure, all parts must be clean and the bearings
lightly lubricated.
Setting the Pinion Gear Depth
This formula is used to calculate the amount of shims that
are required:
C - B - A + (DV) = Pinion Shim (mm)
where,
DV = The number on the face of the pinion gear.
A = The distance in millimeters from the face of the
pinion gear to the top of the inner pinion bearing race
(see below)
B = 54.
C = The number on the edge of the differential side
plate closest to the input shaft (see next page).
D = The number on the edge of the differential side
plate farthest from the input shaft (see next page).
E = The distance in millimeters from the rear of the
drive housing to the face of the pinion gear (see next
page).
Once a shim has been selected and the pinion gear is
installed, confirm that:
E - D = B + (DV)
