•
Output yoke seal.
Check for leaks around the seal, especially if the transmission
has recently been serviced or rebuilt.
B Inspection. Figure 8-3
identifies key areas of a transmission that should be routinely
checked during B inspection.
•
Air control system.
(1) Check for leaks, worn hoses and air lines, loose
connections, and loose fasteners.
•
Bell/clutch housing mounting flange.
(2) Check fastener torque.
•
Clutch shaft yoke bushings.
(4) If the clutch shaft bushings are equipped with
zerk fittings, grease them lightly. Pry upward on the shaft to check for wear. If
excessive movement is found, remove the clutch release mechanism and check
for worn bushings.
•
COE remote shift linkage.
Check the linkage U-joints for wear and binding.
Lubricate the U-joints. Check any bushings in the linkage for wear.
•
Air filter.
Check and clean or replace the air filter element.
•
Transmission output yoke.
(10) Uncouple the U-joint and check the flange nut
for proper torque. Tighten if necessary.
•
Output shaft assembly.
(11) Pry upward on the output shaft to check radial play
in the mainshaft rear bearing. Check the splines on the output shaft (12) for wear
from movement and chucking action of the U-joint yokes.
