The rear axle center drive is composed of a pair of spiral bevel gears. The back end of bevel pinion shaft
is supported by a conical roller bearing and the front end is supported by an internal cylindrical
roller bearing. The shaft end spline links with transmission spline.
4.23.42 Final Drive Adjustment
The clearance G = 0.2 – 0.3 mm. between the planet carrier and the spacer has been adjusted; no further
adjustment is necessary. When performing an overhaul or replacing the planetary mechanism, the final drive
will need to be adjusted. When adjusting, measure the distance from the end face of the drive shaft to the
bearing (A), then measure the depth of the spline hole of the planet carrier (B) and the thickness of the spacer
(C). Choose the gasket thickness based on the following equation where į=A-(B+C+0.2~0.3 mm.) and place
the gasket back in position. Then tighten the locking screw of the drive shaft and lock it in with the lock
place of the drive shaft.
