The old gasket was 0.005" The new gasket kit contains three gaskets measuring 0.0065, 0.0065, and 0.0095". I expected to find a 0.005" gasket in the kit and use it. Will using a 0.0065" gasket throw the pinion depth off too much?

Measure the new shim/gaskets and multiply your caliper/micrometer number by 25.4. Since these are metric, the thickness your after will be simple, and devisable by 5 or 10. So your old shim/gasket that measured at .005" is .127mm. Since its old and smashed (and take multiple measurements to get an average), you can conclude that it was a .15mm shim/gasket.
Cheers, Don. |
