2.Select the proper pinion height adjusting washer. For selecting adjusting washer, refer to the latest parts information.

CAUTION:
If unable to find a washer of desired thickness, use a washer with thickness closest to the calculated value.





COMPANION FLANGE RUNOUT






1.Fit a dial indicator onto the companion flange face (inner side of the propeller shaft mounting bolt holes).
2.Rotate companion flange to check for runout.

Limit
Companion flange runout: Refer to "Companion Flange Runout (M/T)".

3.Fit a test indicator to the inner side of companion flange (socket diameter).

4.Rotate companion flange to check for runout.

Limit
Companion flange runout: Refer to "Companion Flange Runout (M/T)".

5.If the runout value is outside the runout limit, follow the procedure below to adjust.
a.Check for runout while changing the phase between companion flange and drive pinion by 90� step, and search for the position where the runout is the minimum.
b.If the runout value is still outside of the limit after the phase has been changed, possible cause will be an assembly malfunction of drive pinion and pinion bearing and malfunction of pinion bearing. Check for these items and repair if necessary.
c.If the runout value is still outside of the limit after the check and repair, replace companion flange.
