automatic transmission fluid lightly to outside surface of
O-ring.e59. Install oil pump assembly by tightening six bolts evenly.
i-When installing this oil pump assembly, be careful that
thrust washer will not drop.
60. Check input shaft end play. Readjust if necessary (see step
53).Standard value
: 0.3-1.0 mm (.012-,040 in.)
61, Apply solder [length approx. 10 mm (40 in.) and diameter
1.6 mm (.06 in.) to the differential assembly at the locationsshown in the illustration.

-4--J62. Install the converter housing without gasket.
Caution
Don’t reuse the rubber coated metal gasket which has
been used once.
63. Tighten bolts to specification.
64. Loosen the bolts and remove the converter housing in
order to remove the pieces of solder. If the solder is not
broken, carry out the work in steps (61) to (64) with large
diameter solder.
65. Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the flattned
solder.Select the spacer in the following manner according to
measurement.Add the thickness
[0.38 mm (015 in.)] of the rubber coated
metal gasket and the end play
LO-O.1 5 mm (O-.006 in.)] ofi4the differential case to the measurement
(T). Select a -spacer which is in the calculated range, In other words,
select a spacer whose thickness is in the range of n+ 0.38mm
(.015 in.)] to [T+ 0.38 mm (.015 in.) - 0.15 mm (.006
in.)].

hub.74. Install end clutch assembly.
75. Install a new O-ring in the grooves of the end clutch cover.
Caution1. Install so that the O-ring is not twisted.
2. Apply
a sufficient amount of automatic transmission
fluid to the bearing.
76. Attach the end cover and fasten it with four bolts.
Caution
When installing the end cover, be sure the screw hole iscorrectly aligned. If the end cover is turned (after it is
installed) in order to align with the screw hole, the
iiO-ring may be twisted as a result.
