ASSEMBLING OUTPUT SHAFT, INPUT SHAFT
AND COUNTER GEAR
(1) If front bearing was removed from input shaft,
press new bearing on shaft (Fig. 43).(2) Secure front bearing with thickest snap ring
that will fit in groove (Fig. 43).
(3) Press front bearing on counter gear. Secure
bearing with thickest snap ring that will fit in ring
groove (Fig. 44).
(4) Install new oil seals in front bearing retainer
and adapter (Fig. 45). Bearing retainer seal depth is
11.2 - 12.1 mm (0.441 - 0.480 in.).
(5) Install reverse shaft and shaft retaining pin in
adapter. Then install access hole plug with torx bit
(Fig. 46).
(6) Lubricate transmission components with speci-
fied gear lubricant.
(7) Assemble 1-2 and 3-4 synchronizer hubs,
sleeves, springs and key inserts (Fig. 47).
(8) Assemble and install third gear, needle bearing,
synchronizer ring, 3-4 synchronizer and snap ring on
output shaft (Fig. 48). Use thickest snap ring that
fits in shaft groove.

(9) Verify third gear thrust clearance with feeler
gauge (Fig. 49). Clearance should be 0.10 - 0.25 mm
(0.004 - 0.010 in.).
(10) Assemble second gear, gear needle bearing,
synchronizer ring and 1-2 synchronizer. Then press
assembly on output shaft (Fig. 50).
(11) Install first gear lock ball in output shaft (Fig.
51).
(12) Assemble first gear, synchronizer ring, gear
needle bearing and inner race (Fig. 52). Then install
assembly on output shaft.Rotate inner race until
aligned with locking ball.(13) Press rear bearing on shaft (Fig. 52). Snap
ring groove in bearing goes toward rear. Use screw-
driver to hold inner race in position when installing
bearing (Fig. 53).
(14) Install snap ring on rear bearing.

(15) Check first-second gear thrust clearance (Fig.
54). Standard clearance is 0.10 - 0.25 mm (0.004 -
0.010 in.).(16) Press fifth gear on output shaft (Fig. 55).
(17) Install fifth gear snap ring (Fig. 56). Use
thickest snap ring that will fit in shaft groove.
(18) Lubricate input shaft roller bearings with pe-
troleum jelly and install rollers in shaft (Fig. 57).
(19) Install output shaft assembly in intermediate
plate (Fig. 58). Tap plate with mallet and pull on
shaft to seat assembly.
(20) Install input shaft on output shaft.

(21) Install counter gear in intermediate plate (Fig.
59).
(22) Install rear bearing snap ring and install
bearing retainer (Fig. 60). Tighten retainer screws to
18 Nzm (13 ft. lbs.) torque.(23) Install reverse shift arm (Fig. 61). Tighten at-
taching bolt to 18 Nzm (13 ft. lbs.) torque.
(24) Install lock ball, spacer and needle bearing
(Fig. 62) on counter shaft.
(25) On AX 5, assemble counter fifth gear and syn-
chro components (Figs. 42 and 62).

(26) On AX 5, install assembled gear and synchro-
nizer on counter shaft (Fig. 63).
(27) Install remaining synchronizer ring and spline
fifth gear (Fig. 64). Use length of pipe to tap gear
into place.
(28) Shift 1-2 and 3-4 synchronizer sleeves into
gear to lock output shaft and counter gear (Fig. 20).
(29) On AX 4, install oil slinger and lock nut on
counter gear (Fig. 42).
(30) On AX 5, install fifth gear snap ring (Fig. 65).
(31) Disengage 1-2 and 3-4 synchronizer sleeves.
(32) On AX 5, check counter fifth gear thrust clear-
ance (Fig. 66). Standard clearance is 0.10 - 0.30 mm
(0.004 - 0.010 in.). Adjust clearance with different
thickness snap ring if necessary.
