Shims, determining: Example:
SHIM THICKNESS EXAMPLE (DRIVE PINION)
| Shims installed - Reading -Preload - Amount for compression |
3.00 mm (0.12 in.) 0.93 mm (0.04 in) 0.12 mm (0.004 in.) 0.10 mm (0.0039 in.) |
| = Thickness of shim | 1.85 mm (0.07 in.) |
- Remove output gear. Determine size of shim on basis of table and place on drive pinion: see ADJUSTMENTS, AFTER COMPONENT REPLACEMENT .
- Re-install output gear and tighten nut to 250 N.m (184 ft lb). Secure with drift.

Because of close tolerances it is necessary to measure shim thickness precisely.
