Final Check

  1. Install selected input shaft, output shaft and differential shims, bearing races and wave spring (if used). Install differential and input shaft. Assemble transaxle case and clutch housing. Tighten transaxle case bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS  .
  2. Recheck differential bearing preload using differential rotator and torque wrench. Preload should be 13-17 INCH lbs. (1.4-1.9 N.m). Install previously used input shaft lock nut. Check input shaft bearing preload using socket and torque wrench.
  3. Preload should be .9-2.1 INCH lbs. (.1-.2 N.m). If preload is not within specification, repeat differential and/or input shaft bearing preload adjustment procedures.
  4. Remove differential and input shaft. Install output shaft. Assemble transaxle case and clutch housing. Tighten transaxle case bolts to specification. Install previously used output shaft lock nut. Check output shaft bearing preload using socket and torque wrench.
  5. Preload should be 1.8-3.4 INCH lbs. (.2-.4 N.m). If preload is not within specification, repeat output shaft bearing preload adjustment procedures. When preload is correct, assemble transaxle. See TRANSAXLE REASSEMBLY  .
