Setting endplay clearances So after (finally) getting all my bearings replaced, I've started with measuring shims for the countershaft and the main/input shaft. I've watched a few videos on this, but I wanted to check my work before reassembly.
When measuring the countershaft, I had .0032 of endplay. I found a .0034 shim, which should give me .002" preload, correct?
On the mainshaft, I came up with .024 endplay, and the only shim I have that'd work is a .022, which should give me .002" endplay. I'm also assuming I'm supposed to check the mainshaft endplay with the shim on the countershaft correct?
Thanks in advance guys
