Final Drive Readjustment Sequence

Final drive readjustment sequence
The following procedure is recommended to save time when the drive pinion and ring gear have to be adjusted:
1.) Determine total shim thickness "S total" for - SV I "S2" for the specified preload for taper roller bearings for differential.
2.) Determine total shim thickness "S3" to reproduce the installation position for the drive pinion determined on the test machine in production.
3.) Distribute total shim thickness "S total" for SV + "S2" so that the specified backlash exists between ring gear and drive pinion.
