SHIFT SPOOL ASSEMBLY - ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: If the shift spool assembly has been disassembled and reassembled (as in the
previous two sections) skip the following instructions (1 through 4).
NOTE: If the shift spool assembly has not been disassembled and reassembled, do all
of the following steps.
1. Remove and discard the cotter pin.
2. Screw the castle nut down until it touches the washer and a slight resistance is felt.
3. Loosen the castle nut until the cotter pin slot of the castle nut is aligned with the hole
in the shaft. If, when the castle nut is screwed down, the cotter pin slot is not aligned
at the hole in the shaft, back off the castle nut until the next available slot in the nut
is aligned with the hole in the shaft.
4. Insert a new cotter pin and bend ends in opposite directions.
5. Inspect to insure that the spool spins freely (it may be helpful to lightly tap the forward
[castle nut] end of the shift spool shaft against a firm surface to align the internal parts).
6. Inspect to insure that the spool has no more than 0.002-0.010 (0.05-0.25 mm) end
play, if it does adjust the castle nut once again as outlined previously.
0.002 - 0.010 in. (0.05 - 0.25 mm)
7. If this adjustment did not produce the desired results it will be necessary to disas-
semble, clean, and reassemble the shift spool assembly. If the spool assembly has
already been disassembled and cleaned it will be necessary to replace the shift spool
assembly.
