3. Calculate dimension ªNº (thickness of adjusting shim) using
the following procedure to satisfy specification of end play for
differential side bearing.
End play: 0.15 - 0.21 mm (0.0059 - 0.0083 in)
Dimension ªNº = (N1 ± N2) + End play
N: Thickness of adjusting shim
N1: Distance between clutch housing case end
face and mounting face of adjusting shim
N2: Distance between differential side bearing and
transaxle case

b. Install outer race onto differential side bearing on final gear
side. Holding lightly the outer race horizontally by hand, rotate
final gear five times or more (for smooth movement of bearing
roller).

dimension ªN2º between differential side bearing outer race
and transaxle case end face.

5. Measure turning torque of final drive assembly.
Turning torque of final drive assembly
(New bearing):
2.9 - 6.9 N´m (30 - 70 kg-cm, 26 - 61 in-lb)
+When old bearing is used again, turning torque will be
slightly less than the above.
+Make sure torque is close to the specified range.
+Changes in turning torque of final drive assembly per
revolution should be within 1.0 N´m (10 kg-cm, 8.7 in-lb)
without binding.

6. Calculate dimension ªOº (thickness of adjusting shim) using
the following procedure to satisfy specification of end play for
input shaft rear bearing.
End play: 0 - 0.06 mm (0 - 0.0024 in)
Dimension ªOº = (O1 ± O2) + End play
O: Thickness of adjusting shim
O1: Distance between transaxle case end face and
mounting face of adjusting shim
O2: Distance between clutch housing case end
face and end face of input shaft rear bearing
Input shaft rear bearing adjusting shims:
Refer to SDS, MT-128.

12. Apply Three Bond TB1215, Loctite Part No. 51813 or equiva-
lent to threads of reverse switch, PNP switch, and drain plug,
and install them. (Fill the case with oil before installation of filler
plug.)
13. Install speedometer pinion assembly.
CAUTION:

15. Calculate thickness of adjusting shim using the following pro-
cedure to satisfy specification of end play for mainshaft rear
bearing.
End play: 0 - 0.06 mm (0 - 0.0024 in)
Dimension ªPº = (P1 ± P2) + End play
P: Thickness of adjusting shim
P1: Distance between transaxle case end face and
mainshaft rear bearing
P2: Distance between adjusting shim end face of
rear cover and transaxle mounting face
