between the gauge bar and the bearing housing
between each pair of screw holes. Replace the
bearing housing and repeat check if variance is
greater than 0.004 in. (0.010 mm).
Check squareness of the pinion to the driveshaft.
Hold the shim gauge bar against the bearing
housing (between the screw holes) while rotating
just the driveshaft and pinion assembly
. Mea-
sure clearance between the gauge bar and the
pinion at several locations. If variance is greater
than 0.002 in. (0.050 mm) replace the pinion or
driveshaft, as necessary, and repeat check.
Subtract the average clearance measurement
from 0.020 in. (0.508 mm) to determine the cor-
rect shim thickness required. Select the fewest
number of shims to achieve the correct thickness.
Remove the driveshaft from the tool and add the
required shims between the bearing housing and
the thrust washer.
IMPORTANT:
Use extreme care when removing
bearing housing to avoid damaging the seals. Use
Driveshaft Seal Protector, P/N 318674.
Check clearance again. The measurement
between the gauge bar and pinion should be
0.020 in. (0.508 mm).
Remove the nut and pinion from the driveshaft.
Discard the nut.
GEARCASE ASSEMBLY
Water Intake Screens
Install water intake screens. Tighten screws to a
torque of 60 to 84 in. lbs. (7 to 9.5 N·m).
Shift Housing, Gear, and
Propeller Shaft Installation
Push shifter detent into farthest downward posi-
tion. Tip the rear of the gearcase slightly down-
ward to assist in the installation of the shaft
assembly.
Be sure the thrust bearing and the thrust washer
are in the proper position. Insert the shaft assem-
bly fully into the gearcase while aligning shift
housing pin with hole in forward end of gearcase
housing.
