On page 5.1-5/3 of the factory manual, bottom right, it says: "NOTE The values are always rounded off to the next 0.05 mm."
My adjusting dimension is 63.35mm, and after adding .3mm of gasket the measurement comes out to 63.32. Do they mean I should always round UP to the next .05mm (63.35), or do they mean I should round to the NEAREST .05mm (63.30)? I suspect that this clarity issue comes from a translation from german.. but maybe not. I can only add or subtract gaskets in .05mm increments, so I can either leave it at 63.32mm or I can make it 63.37mm. What do I do? |

Whelp, now that that's all taken care of, I now seem to have too much backlash.
Manual says it's marked on the ring gear, but I can't find it (maybe it's on the back, I didn't take the ring gear off the carrier). The manual says the backlash tolerance is .12 to .18 mm. I measure .5mm. There is a .25mm shim I could move to the ring gear side of the carrier, but would that send it too far the other way? About how much do I need to move the carrier to get the backlash into spec? My options are limited as I don't want to mess up the preload, and I don't have all the available shims. |
