At Gear Ring Bearing On Transfer Case

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Nissan Murano. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Measure the points F, H, I, R, and U shown in Figure.
Convert the values F, H, I, R, and U according to the standards below.
F: Value obtained by subtracting 163.00 mm (6.42 in) from the reading [in increments of 0.01 mm (0.0004 in)] .

H: Value obtained by subtracting 83.00 mm (3.27 in) from the reading [in increments of 0.01 mm (0.0004 in)] .

I: Value obtained by subtracting 131.90 mm (5.19 in) from the reading [in increments of 0.01 mm (0.0004 in)] .

R: Value obtained by subtracting 17.00 mm (0.67 in) from the reading [in increments of 0.01 mm (0.0004 in)] .

U: Value obtained by subtracting 89.50 mm (3.524 in) from the reading [in increments of 0.01 mm (0.0004 in)] .
Check dimension Z on the drive gear side face.
NOTE: Dimension Z indicates the difference between the optimum engagement and the standard dimensions increments of 0.01 mm (0.0004 in) written on the drive gear side face.
Use the formula below to calculate adjusting shim thickness T1 at the gear ring bearing on the transfer case.
T1 = (I - F + H + Z - U - R) x 0.01 mm (0.0004 in) + 1.49 mm (0.0587 in)
Select the adjusting shim.
- For information on selecting an adjusting shim, refer to SELECTIVE PARTS .
CAUTION:
- Only one adjusting shim can be selected.
- If no adjusting shim with the calculated value is available, select the thicker and closest one.
