Rear Final Bevel Gear Adjustment
The backlash and tooth contact pattern of the bevel
gears must be correct to prevent the gears from making
noise and being damaged.
After replacing any of the backlash-related parts, be sure
to check and adjust the backlash and tooth contact of the
bevel gears. First, adjust backlash, and then tooth con-
tact by replacing shims.
The amount of backlash is influenced by the ring gear
position more than by the pinion gear position.
Tooth contact locations is influenced by the pinion gear
position more than by the ring gear position.
