25. Measure countershaft end play. Rotate one of the
axle shafts back and forth to take up all back lash. Rotat
ing the shaft in one direction will pull the shaft and bear
ing away from the snap ring. Rotate axle shaft in this
direction, then measure space between the snap ring
and shim (set) with a feeler gauge. Make sure shim (set)
is held against the bearing during the measurement.
End play should be 0.00 to 0.0039 inch (0.0 to 0.10 mm)
(Fig. 115).
IMPORTANT:If end play is too large, replace shim/
shim set (item 2) in steps 22. and 23. with thicker
shims to correct the problem.
26. Insert sealing cap (Item 1) flush with face of housing.
Make sure not to insert sealing cap too far. Pay attention
to direction of sealing cap.
