CAUTION: Always use new retaining bolt, old
retaining bolt may not be reused.
(9) Install the new retaining bolt and washer (Fig.
226). Tighten to 271 N´m (200 ft. lbs.) (Fig. 227).
(10) Using an inch-pound torque wrench, check the
turning torque (Fig. 228).The torque should be
between 3 and 8 inch-pounds.
If the turning torque is too high, install a .04 mm
(.0016 inch) thicker shim. If the turning torque is too
low, install a .04 mm (.0016 inch) thinner shim.
Repeat until the proper turning torque is 3 to 8 inch
pounds.
NOTE: Install output gear stirrup and strap bolts.
All transaxles utilize a stirrup and retaining strap
that is attached to the output gear. The stirrup pre-
vents the output gear retaining bolt from turning
and backing out of the rear carrier. The strap is used
to hold the stirrup to the output gear and prevent
the stirrup retaining bolts from backing out.

TRANSFER SHAFT BEARING
(1) Install a 4.66 mm (.184 inch) gauging shim on
the transfer shaft.
(2) Install transfer shaft gear and bearing assem-
bly and torque the nut to 271 N´m (200 ft. lbs.).
To measure bearing end play:
²Attach Tool L-4432 to the transfer gear.
²Mount a steel ball with grease into the end of
the transfer shaft.
²Push and pull the gear while rotating back and
forth to insure seating of the bearing rollers.
²Using a dial indicator, measure transfer shaft
end play.
(3) Refer to the Transfer Bearing Shim Chart for
the required shim combination to obtain the proper
bearing setting.
(4) Use Tool 6259 to remove the retaining nut and
washer. Remove the transfer shaft gear using Tool
L-4407.

(5) Remove the gauging shim and install the cor-
rect shim (Fig. 242). Install the transfer gear and
bearing assembly (Fig. 243).
CAUTION: Original retaining nut may not be
reused. Always use a new retaining nut when reas-
sembling.
(6) Install the new retaining nut and washer and
torque to 271 N´m (200 ft. lbs.) (Fig. 244).Measure
transfer shaft end play, end play should be .05
to .10 mm (.002 to .004 inch).
(7) Measure bearing end play as outlined in . End
play should be between .05 mm and .10 mm (.002 to
.004 inch).
NOTE: If end play is too high, install a .04 mm
(.0016 inch) thinner shim. If end play is too low,
install a .04 mm (.0016 inch) thicker shim combina-
tion. Repeat until .05 to .10 mm (.002 to .004 inch)
end play is obtained.NOTE: Install the low/reverse reaction plate

DETERMINING No. 4 THRUST PLATE
THICKNESSÐINPUT SHAFT END PLAY
To determine the proper thickness of the No. 4
thrust plate, select the thinnest No. 4 thrust plate.
Using petrolatum (Fig. 263) to hold thrust plate in
position, install input clutch assembly. Be sure the
input clutch assembly is completely seated (Fig. 264).
CAUTION: If view through input speed sensor hole
is not as shown above, the input clutches assembly
is not seated properly.
Remove the oil pump O-ring (Fig. 265). You will be
able to install and remove the oil pump and gasket
very easily to select the proper No. 4 thrust plate.
