  1. Select the rear drive shaft shim.
    1. Using the ST, measure the height "H1" from the end surface of ST to the contact surface of ball bearing.

    3. Using the following calculation, calculate an appropriate thickness "T" of the rear drive shaft shim.
      NOTE: Adjust using 0 - 4 pieces.

      T = H1 - H2 - 0.05 - 0.25 mm (0.002 - 0.010 in)

      T Rear drive shaft shim thickness (mm (in))
      H1 Measured value (mm (in)) of step (1)
      H2 Measured value (mm (in)) of step (2)
      0.05 - 0.25 mm (0.002 - 0.010 in) Clearance specification
  2. Install the rear drive shaft.
  3. Install the extension case. Ref. to CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (TR690)>EXTENSION CASE>INSTALLATION .
