DETERMINING No. 4 THRUST PLATE
THICKNESS—INPUT SHAFT END PLAY
To determine the proper thickness of the No. 4
thrust plate, select the thinnest No. 4 thrust plate.
Using petrolatum (Fig. 340) to hold thrust plate in
position, install input clutch assembly. Be sure the
input clutch assembly is completely seated (Fig. 341).
CAUTION: If view through input speed sensor hole
is not as shown above, the input clutches assembly
is not seated properly.
Remove the oil pump O-ring (Fig. 342). You will be
able to install and remove the oil pump and gasket
very easily to select the proper No. 4 thrust plate.
NOTE: Use screw-in dowels or phillips-head screw-
drivers to align pump to case.
CAUTION: Be sure to reinstall O-ring on oil pump
after selecting the proper No. 4 thrust plate.
Measure the input shaft end play with the tran-
saxle in the vertical position. This will ensure that
the measurement will be accurate.
