;::-,:;: 56. Repeat on the other bearing  bore. Add together 
the  readings  then halve  the sum  to obtain  the mean 
reading.  Note whether  the stylus  has  moved up 
or 
down from  the zeroed  setting. 
a.Where the stylus  has moved  down,  the  amount is 
equivalent 
to the thickness of shims  that must  be 
removed  from  under the pinion inner track 
to bring 
the  pinion  down to the nominal  position. 
b.Where the stylus has  moved  up, the amount  is 
equivalent  to the  additional  thickness 
of shims 
required 
to bring  the  pinion up to the  nominal 
position. 
57. Before  adjusting  the  shim thickness,  check  the 
pinion  face marking and 
if it has a plus (+) figure, 
subtract  that amount  in thousandths  of an  inch 
from  the shim  thickness  fieure obtained

add  the amount  to the  shim thickness  figure.  ~ 
,Adjust the 
shim  thickness  under  the pinion  head 
bearing track  as necessary. 
59. Recheck  the pinion  height setting.  If the setting is 
correct,  the mean  reading  on the  dial  gauge will 
agree  with the figure  marked  on  the  pinion  end 
face. 
For example, with an end face  marking of +3, 
the  dial  gauge  reading  should  indicate  that  the 
pinion  is 
+0.003 ins.

65. With the pinion  flange nut tightened  to a torque of 
9,6 to 16,5 kgf  m (70 to 120  Ibf ft) (95 to 163 Nm) 
the  force required to rotate the pinion  shaft should 
be  within  23 to 
40,25 kgf cm (20 to 35 lbf  ins)  when 
initial  inertia  has  been  overcome.  Change  the 
bearing  pre

requirement.  A  thicker shim 
will reduce pre-load; 
a thinner  shim will increase  pre
