Note +, -, or 0 etched on bottom of both
new and original ring and pinion gear sets.
Adjust shim thickness to compensate for the
difference between both figures as shown in
Table 5-4, Pinion Markings. Use Table 5-4
as follows:
PINION ETCH
(a) Locate +, -, or 0 number, from bottom
of original pinion shaft, in appropriate
column in Table 5-4.
MATCHED SET
(b)
Locate +, -, or 0 number, from bottom
NUMBER
of new pinion shaft, in appropriate
column in Table 5-4.
(c)
Find the box where original and new
numbers intersect.
(d)
Either add to, or subtract from, original shim build-up as recorded in step (20). For example: If
the original pinion shaft is etched +2, and new pinion shaft is etched -1, subtract 0.003 inch
(0.076 mm) from total thickness of original shims. Remove or replace shims as appropriate.
