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?

QUOTE Will using a 0.0065" gasket throw the pinion depth off too much? yes and no...no not on ring and pinion set that have wear.. What did you do to the transmission? Have you changed any part of the gear stack ,changed a gear set?, new spider? If you changed anything that contributes to the height /length of the gear stack you will need to check the R&P , if you just did syncro/dog teeth replacement, the ring and pinion should return to "spec" when you button things up.. I still use prussian blue, or white grease on the R&P gears and check the wipe before I button a transmission up. |
