Shimming
NOTE:
• Shimming is not required when the original
lower case and inner parts are reused for the
lower unit reassembly.
• Shimming is required if either the lower case
or the assembly parts are replaced for the
lower unit reassembly.
Selecting the pinion shims
NOTE:
Obtain the pinion shim thickness (T3) by us-
ing the specified measurement(s) and the cal-
culation formula.
Calculation formula:
Pinion shim thickness
(T3) = 80.00 + P/100 - M3 - M4
1. Measure the drive shaft housing

and
thrust washer
2
height (M3) .

NOTE:
• Set the thrust washer on the drive shaft hous-
ing, and turn it two or three times to make it
seated properly.
• Take measurements at three points on the
thrust bearing, and obtain the average.
2. Measure the datum distance on the drive
shaft. Initially, install the pinion height
gauge to the drive shaft.

NOTE:
• Install the drive shaft in the center of the pin-
ion height gauge.
• Tighten the wing nuts another 1/4 of a turn
after they come in contact with the pinion
height gauge plate.
3. Install the pinion gear to the drive shaft,
and tighten the pinion gear nut to the speci-
fied torque.
4. Measure the distance between the pinion
height gauge and the pinion gear (M4).
