Input & Reaction Carrier: Inspection
- Using feeler gauge, check for excessive pinion gear end play in input carrier and reaction carrier assemblies. End play should be .009-.030" (.23-.76 mm). If end play is not as specified, replace appropriate component. See Fig 1.
- Inspect thrust bearings, reaction carrier and input carrier for the following:
- Damaged cage.
- Damaged or missing rollers.
- Damage to pinion teeth.
- Damage to internal gear teeth.
- Damage to spline teeth.
Replace components as necessary. See Fig 2.
