2. Measure dimension "L".
3. Calculate dimension "J".
  "J" : Distance between oil pump fitting surface of transmission case and needle bearing mating surface of front sun gear.
  
  J = K - L

Adjust total end play "T1".
T1 = J - M

Total end play "T1"

: 0.25 - 0.55 mm (0.0098 - 0.0217 in)
- Select proper thickness of bearing race so that total end play is within specifications. Refer to "Parts Information" for bearing race selection.
