28.

INSTALL TRANSAXLE HOUSING

(a)

Calculate the end play value using the following formula
and values of Dimension D and E that were measured
when installing cylindrical roller bearing and U/D plane-
tary gear. Select an appropriate U/D planetary gear thrust
bearing race No.2 which satisfies the specified end play
value, and install it.
End play: 0.50 – 0.99 mm (0.0197 – 0.0390 in.)

HINT:
End play = Dimension E – Dimension D – thrust bearing thick-
ness 3.28 mm (0.1291 in.) – U/D gear thrust bearing race No.2
