(2) Install the bearing housing (14) and driving spider (18) assemblies on the clutch shaft (4). Use the same
number of gaskets (2) or shims between the bearing housing and transmission case as were used before
removal. These shims and gaskets are used to adjust the meshing clearance between the bevel gears and
bevel pinion on the master clutch shaft. Be careful not to adjust the meshing clearance too tight. The
meshing clearance is properly adjusted when a slight play can be noticed in the meshing.
(3) Install and tighten the bearing housing screws (24) and lockwashers (25).
(4) Install the shaft bearing spacers (6).
(5) Install the outer bearings (9) and hub spacers (11).
(6) Install the lockwashers (19) and locknuts (20). Turn the locknuts (20) clockwise to adjust the bearings.
The bearings are properly adjusted when there is no binding or excessive side play as the shaft is turned by
hand.
(7) Bend the ear of the lockwasher (19) over the locknut (20).
(8) Install the oil seals (21) and thrust washers (22).
(9) Install the outer shaft keys (28) and forward and reverse clutches (par. 200g).
