131. Using a press (1), remove the No. 1 transmission clutch hub and 1st gear from the output shaft.




132. Remove the No. 1 synchronizer ring set from the 1st gear.




133. Remove the 1st gear needle roller bearing from the output shaft.




134. Using a press (1), remove the output shaft front bearing (inner race) from the output shaft.




135. Remove the No. 1 transmission clutch hub, No. 1 synchromesh shifting keys, and No. 1 synchromesh shifting key springs from the reverse gear.




136. Using a feeler gage, measure the 1st gear thrust clearance.

Standard clearance - 0.25-0.40 mm (0.0098-0.0157 in)
If the clearance is out of specification, replace the 1st gear, or No. 1 transmission clutch hub.




137. Using a dial indicator, measure the 2nd gear thrust clearance.

Standard clearance - 0.10-0.35 mm (0.0039-0.0138 in)




138. Using V-blocks and a dial indicator, inspect the shaft for runout.

Maximum runout - 0.03 mm (0.0012 in)
If runout exceeds the maximum, replace the input shaft.




139. Using a cylinder gage, measure the inside diameter of the 2nd gear.

* Standard inside diameter - 50.009-50.025 mm (1.9689-1.9695 in)
* Maximum inside diameter - 50.025 mm (1.9695 in)

140. If the inside diameter exceeds the maximum, replace the 2nd gear.
141. Using a cylinder gage, measure the inside diameter of the 1st gear.

* Standard inside diameter - 51.009-51.025 mm (2.0082-2.0089 in)
