NOTE: Measure with bearing cone and thrust washer removed.

6. Calculate space "t" using the following equation: t = X - W + 0.2 to 0.3 mm (0.008 to 0.012 inch)





7. Select nearest washer in the following table:
Standard clearance between thrust washer and taper roller bearing: 0.2 - 0.3 mm T (0.008 - 0.012 inch T)

NOTE: T: Tight

8. Fit thrust washers into extension case.
9. Install bearing cone into extension case.





10. Measure depth "S" between transfer case and center differential.
