NOTE: Optimum performance of the upper gear case requires 

setting up

” 

the pinion & clutch gears with 

IMCO procedure as follows.

 

1.

 

Take all measurements using the 

SCX Setup Diagrams

” 

(Fig 3) and the 

SCX Work 

Sheet

” 

(Fig 4).

 

2.

 

After all measurements are taken and proper race thickness has been determined, place 
lower race [2

-

6] and thrust bearing [2

-

7] in case.

 

3.

 

Place lower clutch gear [2

-

13] with attached tool (backlash tower 01

-

5579) into case.

 

4.

 

Adjust rolling preload (8

-

10 in/lbs) on pinion gear by changing Yoke Gear End Shims [2

-

42]. 

Tighten nut [2

-

36] to 75 ft/lbs.

 

5.

 

After proper rolling preload is determined, assemble pinion pack with pinion retainer nut 

O

” 

ring [1

-

20] between pinion seal carrier [2

-

45] and retainer nut [2

-

31].

 

6.

 

Torque retainer nut to 200 ft/lbs.  (Tool: Pinion Retainer Nut Driver 01

-

5590) (torque wrench 

centered on retainer nut, or, if using longer tool be sure to compensate on torque value).  
Use new lock nut [2

-

36] and torque to 75 ft/lbs.

 

7.

 

Install pinion pack using 4 screws [1

-

23] for testing. 

 

8.

 

Install dial indicator (indicator bracket 01

-

5588) and pinion gear locking tool (pinion gear lock 

01

-

5587) Fig

-

5.

 

9.

 

Check backlash, adjust backlash with pinion hub shims [2

-

18] (average backlash should 

be .007

-

.010).

 

10.

 

Once backlash is determined. Check upper clutch gear by placing gear in lower position with 
lower thrust race and backlash tower.  This will insure backlash is .007 

-

.010 is correct on 

upper gear.

 

11.

 

Assemble drive shaft gear assembly [2

-

(8

-

17)].

 

12.

 

Place the lower clutch gear [2

-

13] onto the clutch shaft [2

-

17], allowing it to rest on the thrust 

collar.

 

13.

 

Place the lower clutch spring thrust bearing [2

-

14] (silver side 

up), lower clutch spring [2

-

15], 

clutch cone [2

-

16], upper clutch spring  [2

-

15], upper clutch spring thrust bearing [2

-

14], 

(Note; use a thin layer of grease between the bearing and the gear to keep bearing in place 
during assembly), (silver side 

down

”), 

upper clutch gear [2

-

13], clutch shaft retainer [2

-

9] 

onto the upper clutch shaft [2

-

17].

 

14.

 

Compress the upper clutch gear and install the upper drive shaft retainer keepers [2

-

8].

 

15.

 

Install complete clutch shaft assembly into gear case. 

 

16.

 

Align the clutch gear timing marks 

(“+” 

over 

-

“, 

or 

-

“ 

over 

“+”) 

with the center of the rear face 

of the gear case.

 

17.

 

Install pinion pack with 

O

” 

ring [1

-

19] and shims [2

-

18] (shims must be properly aligned).

 

18.

 

Torque pinion pack screws [1

-

(22

-

23)] (Important: make sure copper sealing washers [1

-

21] 

are in place, short screws in 2 top holes & 2 bottom holes [1

-

22] longer screws in 3 port & 3 

starboard holes [1

-

23] to 20 ft/lbs.  Use 

Loctite 

242” 

on all screws.  Note: make sure that the 

clutch gear timing marks align to case timing marks, roll pinion to check.
