CHECKING AXIAL END PLAY IN THE 

MAIN DRIVE GEAR TAPERED ROLLER BEARING 

INSTALLING THE MAIN DRIVE GEAR 

 
 

6.  Do not remove the installation tool yet; 

leave everything tight. Measure the 
amount of end play in the main drive gear 
assembly 

using a dial indicator with .0005” 

increments as shown in figure 21. 

Total 

axial end play (pulling / pushing on the 
gear) must be between .0005” and 
.002

”.

 It is extremely important that your 

bearing end play is within this range, as 
anything too tight or too loose may lead to 
transmission failure.

 

Measuring end play is tricky. The end play 
measurement can easily be skewed if 
radial or rotational forces are applied, so 
try to keep all movement in the axial 
direction (parallel to the mainshaft). A 
correctly set up tapered roller bearing 
should be very tight. When you think your 
measurement is between .0005” – .002”, 
try spinning the main drive gear. If it spins 
freely with no drag and no excessive 
noise, setup is complete and you may 
proceed to the next step. 

 

7.  Remove the tooling used to install the main drive gear along with pulley spacer if you had 

to use it. If necessary, reinstall the O-ring (OR568M52) that you removed from the pulley 
spacer in step 3. 

IF YOUR SETUP IS TOO TIGHT (

UNDER .0005”

), REMOVE THE MAIN DRIVE 

GEAR FROM THE CASE USING THE PROPER TOOLING. REMOVE THE O-RING 

FROM THE ‘SNOUT’ OF 

THE MAIN DRIVE GEAR FOLLOWED BY THE .

104” 

(GREEN) SPACER. INSTALL THE 

.106” (BLUE) SPACER,

 REPLACE THE O-RING, 

AND GO BACK TO STEP 4.  

IF YOUR SETUP IS TOO LOOSE (OVER .002

), REMOVE THE MAIN DRIVE GEAR 

FROM THE CASE USING THE PROPER TOOLING. REMOVE THE O-RING FROM 

THE ‘SNOUT’ OF THE M

AIN DRIVE GEAR FOLLOWED BY THE .

104” (GREEN) 

SPACER. INSTALL THE 

.102” (WHITE) SPACER

, REPLACE THE O-RING, AND 

GO BACK TO STEP 4.

end play in the main drive gear
