Corrections of Absolute Angle of Propeller Shaft

Shop Made Spacers For Transmission Cross Member:

Spacer Between Frame Floor And Propeller Shaft Intermediate Bearing:

CORRECTION OF FRONT (angle 1) AND CENTER (angle 2) ARTICULATED ANGLES
- Use spacers for correction of the articulated Angle on the transmission cross member or rear engine mount or on the propeller shaft intermediate bearing
- A 1 mm thick spacer changes the articulated angle by approximately 0.16°

NOTE:
^ Spacers are available as spare parts in thicknesses of 1 mm-4 mm.
^ When using a 2-5 mm thick spacer, increase the bolt length by 5 mm.
^ If a spacer greater than 5mm is required, check the rubber mounts of the engine or transmission, for wear, settling or damage, replace if necessary





CORRECTION OF REAR (angle 3) ARTICULATED ANGLE
- In the example shown in Testing and Inspection, the front and center angles are within range. the rear angle is outside the tolerance range.
- To correct the rear angle, insert an additional 2 mm thick spacer between the rear axle and the rubber mount (arrow).
- A 1 mm thick spacer changes the articulated angle by approximately 0.25-0.33°

NOTE:
^ Spacers are available as spare parts in thicknesses of 1 mm-4 mm.
^ When using a 2-5 mm thick spacer, increase the bolt length by 5 mm.
^ If a spacer greater than 5mm is required, check the front rubber mount of the rear axle carrier, for wear, damage or settling, replace if necessary
