- Use a thickness gauge to measure the clearance between the block ring and the dog teeth.
If the measured value exceeds the specified limit, the 1st-2nd synchronizer assembly must be replaced.
Block Ring And Insert Clearance:
BLOCK RING AND INSERT CLEARANCE
- Use a vernier caliper or thickness gauge to measure the clearance between the block ring and the insert.
If the measured value exceeds the specified limit, the block ring and the insert must be replaced.
Clutch Hub And Insert Clearance:
CLUTCH HUB AND INSERT CLEARANCE
- Use a thickness gauge to measure the clearance between the clutch hub and the insert ring.
If the measured value exceeds the specified limit, the clutch hub and the insert must be replaced.
MAINSHAFT RUN-OUT
- Install the mainshaft to V-blocks.
- Use a dial indicator to measure the mainshaft central portion run-out.
If the measured mainshaft run-out exceeds the specified limit, the mainshaft must be replaced.
Mainshaft run-out Limit : 0.05 (0.0020) mm (in)
Gear Inside Diameter:
GEAR INSIDE DIAMETER
- Use an inside dial indicator to measure the gear inside diameter.
If the measured value exceeds the specified limit, the gear must be replaced.
Idler Gear And Idler Gear Shaft Clearance:
REVERSE IDLER GEAR AND IDLER GEAR SHAFT CLEARANCE
- Use a micrometer to measure the idler gear shaft diameter.
- Use an inside dial indicator to measure the idler gear inside diameter.
- Calculate the idler gear and idler gear shaft clearance.
Idler gear inside diameter-idler gear shaft diameter = idle gear and idler gear shaft clearance.
If the measured value exceeds the specified limit, the idle gear and/or the idler gear shaft must be replaced.
Clutch Hub Spline Play:
CLUTCH HUB SPLINE PLAY
- Set a dial indicator to the clutch hub to be measured.
- Move the clutch hub as far as possible to both the right and the left.
Note the dial indicator reading.
If the measured value exceeds the specified limit, the clutch hub must be replaced.
BALL BEARING PLAY
- Use a dial indicator to measure the ball bearing play.
Ball bearing play Limit : 0.2 (0.008) mm (in)
