NOTE : Do not spread the housing on the aluminum models.
Check that some clearance exists between the bearing cap and the
seal housing tube. If not, the bearing cap should be removed and
the tube re-bent for adequate clearance.
Check that some backlash can be felt between the ring and pinion
gears. No backlash would be an early indication of incorrect shim
thickness.
