Shim Calculation
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
By adding the sum of the above readings you will be able to determine the correct shim needed.
Your base line shim will be 2.047 mm, add this to the pinion depth variance/deviation (1). The variance/deviation marking on the pinion head in 0.01 mm increments. Therefore, for the illustration shown, 0.03 mm (0.0012 in.) would be added to the shim thickness.
Add your dial indicator reading measurement for pinion height (1).
Add your gage rod protrusion measurement (1).
The sum of the above will be the shim size needed (1).
