  4. Using the following formula, calculate clearance "T" to select a shim.

    Formula: T mm = (C - 15) - ((A - 15) - B)

    [T in = (C - 0.591) - ((A - 0.591) - B)]

    T: Clearance

    A: Height from the ST upper face to the converter case mating surface

    B: Depth from the converter case cover upper face to the bearing catch surface

    C: Depth from the ST upper face to the bearing end face

    15 mm (0.591 in): Thickness of ST

    Clearance "T" mm (in) Thickness of shim mm (in)
    0.470 - 0.569 (0.019 - 0.021) 0.4 (0.016)
    0.570 - 0.669 (0.022 - 0.025) 0.5 (0.020)
    0.670 - 0.769 (0.026 - 0.029) 0.6 (0.024)
    0.770 - 0.869 (0.030 - 0.033) 0.7 (0.028)
    0.870 - 0.980 (0.034 - 0.039) 0.8 (0.031)
  5. Select one to two shims so that the total thickness meets the value obtained from above.
    Part No. Thickness of shim (in)
    31288AA130 0.2 (0.008)
    31288AA140 0.3 (0.012)
    31288AA150 0.5 (0.020)
