25.Measure countershaft end play. Rotate one of the
axle shafts back and forth to take up all back lash. Rotat-
ing the shaft in one direction will pull the shaft and bear-
ing away from the snap ring. Rotate axle shaft in this
direction, then measure space between the snap ring
and shim (set) with a feeler gauge. Make sure shim (set)
is held against the bearing during the measurement.
End play should be from 0.000 to 0.0039 in. (0.00 to 0.10
mm) (Fig. 97).
IMPORTANT: If end play is too large, replace shim/
shim set (item 2 in steps 21 and 22) with thicker
shims to reduce endplay.
26.Insert sealing cap (item 1) flush with face of housing.
Make sure to not insert sealing cap too far. Pay attention
