BAG A (Continued)
q
1. Insert a 5mm x 8mm Bearing (117) into the second Outdrive/
Diff Half (87). Make sure that the Bearing is pushed all the way into
the Outdrive. A pencil or the handle of a hobby knife can be used to
push the Bearing into place.
q
2. Apply a slight amount of Clear Diff Grease (172) to the
1/4" x 5/16" Shim (153). Insert the Shim into the Outdrive/Diff Half
next to the 5mm x 8mm Bearing. Make sure that the Shim is flat against
the Bearing.
Be extra careful not to bend this Shim!
*NOTE: Only a small amount of Grease is needed. It is only
needed to hold the Shim in place next to the Bearing.
Step A-16
Female Outdrive Bearing Install:
q
1. Locate the Diff Adjusting Screw (91) and place the Foam Thrust
Bearing Seal (186) over the shoulder of the Screw.
q
2. Place one of the 3mm x 8mm Thrust Bearing Washers (149)
over the Diff Screw.
*NOTE: The Thrust Bearing Washers are packaged in a small
bag along with the eight 5/64" Thrust Bearing Balls.
q
3. Grease the Thrust Washer well with MIP RED Thrust Bearing
Grease (157) and place the eight 5/64" Thrust Bearing Balls (95) on
top of the Washer, around the Diff Screw. Apply more RED Thrust
Bearing Grease to the tops of the Thrust Bearing Balls. Place the
second Thrust Washer over the Screw and against the Thrust Bear-
ing Balls.
q
4. Very carefully insert the Diff Screw, with the Thrust Bearing
assembly installed, into the Female Outdrive (87). Be very careful not
to bend or pinch the Shim (153) while inserting the Diff Screw. Pull the
threaded end of the Diff Screw until the Thrust Bearing assembly
rests against the Shim and Bearing (117) inside of the Outdrive.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Ensure that all eight Thrust Bearing
Balls remain in place between the two Washers, around the Diff Screw.
