E351 MANUAL TRANSAXLE: INPUT SHAFT: DISASSEMBLY

1. INSPECT 4TH GEAR THRUST CLEARANCE





(a) Using a feeler gauge, measure the thrust clearance.

Standard clearance:

0.10 to 0.57 mm (0.0039 to 0.0224 in.)

If the clearance is out of the specification, replace the No. 2 transaxle clutch hub, 4th gear or input shaft rear radial ball bearing.

2. INSPECT 3RD GEAR THRUST CLEARANCE





(a) Using a dial indicator, measure the thrust clearance.

Standard clearance:

0.10 to 0.35 mm (0.0039 to 0.0138 in.)

If the clearance is out of the specification, replace the No. 2 transaxle clutch hub, 3rd gear or input shaft.

3. INSPECT 4TH GEAR RADIAL CLEARANCE





(a) Using a dial indicator, measure the radial clearance.

Standard clearance:





If the clearance is out of the specification, replace the 4th gear, needle roller bearing or input shaft.

4. INSPECT 3RD GEAR RADIAL CLEARANCE





(a) Using a dial indicator, measure the gear radial clearance.

Standard clearance:





If the clearance is out of the specification, replace the 3rd gear, needle roller bearing or input shaft.

5. REMOVE 4TH GEAR





(a) Hold the input shaft assembly in a vise with soft jaws.

(b) Using 2 screwdrivers and a hammer, tap out the input shaft rear bearing shaft snap ring from the input shaft.

6. REMOVE 4TH GEAR NEEDLE ROLLER BEARING





(a) Remove the needle roller bearing from the input shaft.

7. REMOVE NO. 4 SYNCHRONIZER OUTER RING





(a) Remove the No. 4 synchronizer outer ring from the No. 2 transaxle clutch hub.

8. REMOVE 4TH GEAR BUSH





(a) Remove the 4th gear bush from the No. 2 transaxle clutch hub.

9. REMOVE 3RD GEAR





(a) Using 2 screwdrivers and a hammer, tap out the No. 2 clutch hub setting shaft snap ring from the input shaft.

HINT

10. REMOVE 3RD GEAR NEEDLE ROLLER BEARING





(a) Remove the needle roller bearing from the input shaft.

11. REMOVE NO. 3 SYNCHRONIZER RING





(a) Remove the No. 3 synchronizer ring from the 3rd gear.

12. REMOVE NO. 2 TRANSAXLE HUB SLEEVE





(a) Remove the No. 2 transaxle hub sleeve, 3 No. 2 synchromesh shifting keys and 3 No. 2 synchromesh shifting key springs from the No. 2 transaxle clutch hub.

HINT
