Re: Solid spacer pinion sleeve gurus come in
I have found it easier to add too much shim\so the pinion is loose.
Add additional shims.
Measure the axial play, say its .005.
Then remove the .005 and .003 more for a total of -.008. (.003 preload)
Then check your rotation torque. It should be close to or slightly less than the specification.
At least you will know where .0 is.
It will keep you from damaging the bearing by false brinelling, the bearing, during the installation
Continue adding or removing shims till the preload is correct.
This is the shim for the solid spacer, not the set-up shim behind the pinion gear.
