II PINION POSITION SHIM SELECTION
1. Pinion position shim selection can also be
done using a special tool, in the absence of
removed ring/pinion gear.
2. Install pinion height set master block which is
part of tool
(Part No. 287058903310)
over
pinion inner bearing cup seat.
3.
Set the dial gauge to 0
(zero)
, on surface plate.
Install dial gauge on pinion height gauge which
is again a part of tool
(Part No. 287058903309)
4. Install pinion height set gauge with dial gauge
on side bearing seats. Ensure that plunger of
dial gauge touches top face of pinion height
set master.
5. Rock the depth gauge. Record the maximum
reading on gauge needle. Let it be X'
6. To calculate shim thickness procedure as
follows:
Shim thickness required = X– etched value on
pinion
(when etched POSITIVE)
Shim thickness required = X + etched value on
pinion
(when etched NEGATIVE)
