Transmission Cover: Installation

Measure distance "l" from end of transmission cover point at bearing location with ST.
ST 398643600 GAUGE

"l" = Measured value - 15 mm

Fig 1: Measuring Distance "l"
Measure the distance "L" from the transmission case mating surface to end of bearing with ST.
L = Measured value - 15 mm

Fig 2: Measuring Distance "L"
Calculation equation:
NOTE: Add 0.05 mm (0.0020 in) and 0.20 mm (0.0079 in) thick shims to area "T". Calculate formula 2 to determine "H". The calculated "H" refers to the shim thickness range. Select shims of suitable thicknesses within the calculated "H" range.

(0 to 6 teeth)

T = (L + G)- l - H

T: Shim clearance

L: Distance from end of extension case to end of rear drive shaft

G: Gasket thickness [0.45 mm (0.0177 in)]

l: Height from end of transmission case to end of reduction drive gear

H: Shim thickness

0.05 - 0.25 mm (0.0020 - 0.0098 in)

Fig 3: Adjusting Shim Chart
Attach the selected adjusting shim to transmission cover.
Install the transmission cover to the transmission case.
CAUTION: Be sure to use a new gasket.
Tighten bolts to secure the case.
Tightening torque:
1. 25 N.m (2.5 kgf-m, 18.1 ft-lb)
