2. Install the new oil seal in the flywheel housing with the special tools in the specification shown.

Secondary Gear Shaft Thrust Clearance Inspection

NOTE: If the transmission housing or flywheel housing was replaced, secondary gear shaft thrust clearance must be inspected.








1. Install the secondary gear shaft in the transmission housing.
2. Measure the distance (A) between the transmission housing surface and the top of the bearing, then note the measurement (Measurement A).








3. Measure the distance (B) between the flywheel housing surface and bearing mounting surface in the housing, then note the measurement (Measurement B).
4. Calculate the secondary gear shaft clearance by subtracting Measurement B from Measurement A.
Standard: 0.5 - 0.65 mm (0.02 - 0.03 inch)

NOTE: The standard of the clearance includes the thickness of the flywheel housing gasket (0.5 mm, 0.02 inch)

5. If the clearance is out of standard, adjust it with the 25 x 35 mm thrust shim.

Secondary Gear Shaft Bearing Replacement

Special Tools Required
^ Driver 40 mm I.D.07746-0030100
^ Attachment, 25 mm I.D. 07746-0030200





1. Remove the bearing (A) from the secondary gear shaft (B) with a universal two-jaw (or three-jaw) puller (C). Place a shaft protector (D) between the secondary gear shaft and a puller to prevent damaging the shaft.





2. Install the new bearing (A) on the secondary gear shaft (B) of the transmission housing side with the special tools and a press.
3. Select the 25 x 35 mm thrust shim.





4. Install the selected thrust shim, then install the new bearing (A) on the secondary gear shaft (B) of the flywheel housing side using the special tools and-a press.

25 x 35 mm Thrust Shim Selection

NOTE: If the secondary gear shaft bearings or secondary gear shaft is replaced, select the 25 x 35 mm thrust shim to adjust the secondary gear shaft thrust clearance.

1. Remove the bearing on flywheel housing side of the secondary gear shaft.
2. Install the secondary gear shaft in the transmission housing.








3. Measure the distance (A) between the transmission housing surface and the 25 x 35 mm thrust shim mounting surface on the secondary gear shaft, then note the measurement (Measurement A).








4. Measure the distance (B) between the flywheel housing surface and bearing mounting surface in the housing, then note the measurement (Measurement B).





5. Calculate the thickness of the 25 x 35 mm thrust shim using the formula.





6. Select the 25 x 35 mm thrust shim using the table.
7. Remove the secondary gear shaft from the transmission housing.
8. Install the selected 25 x 35 mm thrust shim in the secondary gear shaft, then install the bearing.
