3. Measure and record face runout (1) readings at four points 90° apart. Take measurement at least twice for accuracy.
4. Subtract lowest reading from highest to determine total runout. If low reading was minus 0.004 inch and highest reading was plus 0.009 inch
the total runout is 0.013 inch.
NOTE: Maximum acceptable face runout is 0.010 inch.
To correct this example the shims needed between the clutch housing and transmission are:
-
0.009 inch at the 0.000 corner
-
0.012 inch at the -0.003 corner
-
0.013 inch at the -0.004 corner
After installing the clutch assembly and housing, tighten the housing bolts nearest the alignment dowels first.
NOTE: Shims can be made from shim stock or similar materials of the required thickness.
