With the three (3) gauges compressed, the gap between the outer sleeve and the base pad is larger than the correct preload shim at each
location. Carefully compare the gap to the available shims. Determine the largest shim that can be placed into differential gap and drawn
through without binding. Use the next size smaller shim for this location. Repeat procedure to select output shaft shim. On the input shaft,
repeat this procedure and use a shim two (2) sizes smaller than the largest shim that can be drawn through without binding. See Figure 3.

When each of the three (3) shims has been selected, remove the clutch cover, seven
(7)
spacers and three (3) gauges.
9.
Place the selected shims into their respective bores in the clutch cover and add the metal shield. Install the bearing cups using special tool
J-26936 on input shaft, J-23423-A on output shaft cup and J-26938 on the differential side bearing cup.
10.
After assembly, check end play of input shaft. If any end play is present, replace shim with next size larger at this location.

Reinstall transaxle in car and perform shift cable adjustment as outlined previously.
