Shimming Procedure/Shim
Selection
It is very important to adjust bevel gears for the proper
running tolerances. Gear life and gear noise are greatly
affected by these tolerances; therefore, it is very
important to properly adjust any gear set prior to final
assembly.
The following procedure can be used on both front dif-
ferential or rear drive gear case.
NOTE: All bearings must be installed in the gear
case and the pinion properly installed before pro-
ceeding.
Backlash
NOTE: Always set backlash prior to any other
shimming.
