Transfer Output Shaft Installation Height Inspection/Adjustment

NOTE: If the transfer output shaft, the transfer output shaft bearing, the transmission housing bearing, the transmission housing, or the torque converter housing were replaced, adjust the transfer output shaft installation height with the 28.5 mm thrust shim.

Install the transfer output shaft (A) in the torque converter housing, and install the 28.5 mm thrust shim (B) on the top of the shaft. If you install a new 28.5 mm thrust shim, use the same thickness shim as the old one.
Standard: 47.26 - 47.30 mm (1.8606 - 1.8622 in)

Install a new gasket (C) on the torque converter housing.
Measure the height (D) of the transfer output shaft installation between the surface (E) of the gasket and the top (F) of the 28.5 mm thrust shim in at least three places. Use the average as the actual height.
If the measurement is out of the standard, remove the 28.5 mm thrust shim and measure its thickness.

Select and install a new thrust shim, then recheck the installation height.
