    5. Using a plastic-faced hammer, install the plate washer for the side with the ring gear teeth.

    6. B001EMV

      Using a dial indicator, while holding the companion flange, measure the ring gear backlash.

      Standard backlash
      0.10 to 0.20 mm (0.00394 to 0.00787 in.)

      If the backlash is not within the specification, adjust it by either increasing or decreasing the thickness of the washers on both sides by an equal amount.

      Tech Tips


      • There should be no clearance between the plate washer and case.

      • Make sure that there is ring gear backlash.

  11. ADJUST SIDE BEARING PRELOAD

    B001FED

    1. Remove the ring gear teeth side plate washer and, using a micrometer, measure the thickness.

      Tech Tips

      Select a washer which can be pressed in 2/3 of the full amount with your finger.

    3. B001EMV

      Recheck the ring gear backlash.

      Standard backlash
