Clearance Inspection
NOTE: The synchro sleeve and the synchro hub shouldbe replaced as a set.
1. Measure the clearance between each shift fork andits matching synchro sleeve.
Standard: 0.35 - 0.65 mm {O.Olit - 0.026 inlService Limit: 1.0 mm t0.04 inl
SHIFT FOBK
lf the clearance is more than the service limit. mea_sure the thickness of the shitt fork finoers.
Standard: 7.4 - 7.6 mm (0.291 - 0.299 in)
lf the thickness of the shift fork frngers rs notwithin the standard, replace the shift fork with anew one.
lf the thickness of the shift fork fingers is withinthe standard, replace the synchro sleeve with a

3. Measure the clearance between the shift piece andthe shift fork shafts.
Standard: 0.2 - 0.5 mm (0.008 - 0.02 inlService Limit: 0.8 mm {0.03 in)
lf the clearance is more than the service limit. mea-sure the width of the shift Diece.
Standard: 11.9 - 12.0 mm (0.469 - 0.it72 in)
lf the width of the shift piece is not within thestandard, replace the shift piece with a new one.lf the width of the shift piece is within the stan_dard, replace the shift fork with a new one.

Reassembly
CAUTION:
. Press the 3rd/4th and the 5th synchro hubs on the
mainshaft without lubrication.
o When installing the 3rd/,lth and the sth synchro
hubs, support the mainshaft on steel blocks, and
installthe synchro hubs using a prsss.
. Install the 3rd/4th and the sth synchro hubs with a
maximum plessur€ of 19.6 kN (2,000 kg, 14,466 lbl.
NOTE: Refer to page 13-67 for reassembly sequence.
1, Support 2nd gear on steel blocks, then install the
3rd/4th synchro hub using the special tools and a
press, as snown.
NOTE:
. After installing. check the operation of the
3rd/4th synchro sleeve and hub.
. Assemble the 3rd/4th synchro hub and sleeve
together betore installing them on the mainshaft.

Synchro Sleeve, Synchro Hub
Inspection
1,Inspect gear teeth on all synchro hubs and synchro
sleeves for rounded off corners. which indicates
Install each synchro hub in its mating synchro
sleeve and check for freedom of movement.
NOTE: lf replacement is required, always replace
the synchro sleeve and synchro hub as a set.
Installation
When assembling the synchro sleeve and synchro hub,
be sure to match the three sets of longer teeth (120
degrees apart) on the synchro sleeve with the three sets
of deeper grooves in the synchro hub.
CAUTION: Do noi install tho synchro sleeve with its
longer toeth in the synchro hub slots, because it will
damage the spring ring.
