Part 3
ADJUSTMENTFINAL DRIVE END PLAY - RL4F03A
- Measure clearance between differential side bearing and transmission case.
- Select proper thickness of adjusting shim so that end play is within specifications.
1. Measure dimension "T" between side bearing fitting surface of transmission case and converter housing fitting surface of transmission case.
"T(1)": Indication of gauge
2. Measure thickness of straightedge "t".
T = T(1) - t
3. Place final drive assembly on converter housing.
4. Measure dimension "U" between end of differential case and transmission case fitting surface of converter housing.
5. Measure dimension "V" between end of differential case and adjusting shim mating surface of differential side bearing.
6. Calculate final drive end play.
Final drive end play: T - U + V
7. Select proper thickness of differential side bearing adjusting shim so that final drive end play is within specifications.
Final drive end play: 0 - 0.15 mm (0 - 0.0059 in.)
Differential side bearing adjusting shim: Refer to Specifications.
ASSEMBLY

5. Measure dimension "V" between end of differential case and adjusting shim mating surface of differential side bearing.
6. Calculate final drive end play.
Final drive end play: T - U + V
7. Select proper thickness of differential side bearing adjusting shim so that final drive end play is within specifications.
Final drive end play: 0 - 0.15 mm (0 - 0.0059 in.)
Differential side bearing adjusting shim: Refer to Specifications.
