3. Install output shaft on transmission case.





4. Measure dimensions "l1" and "l2" at side cover and then calculate dimension "A".
^ Measure dimension "l1" and "l2" in at least two places.
"A" = Distance between transmission case fitting surface and adjusting shim mating surface.





5. Measure dimensions "l2" and "l3" and then calculate dimension "B".
^ Measure "l2" and "l3" in at least two places.
"B" = Distance between the end of output shaft bearing outer race and the side cover fitting surface of transmission case.
"B" = "l2" - "l3"





6. Select proper thickness of adjusting shim so that output shaft end play (clearance between side cover and output shaft bearing) is within specifications.
