  3. Align bearing cover with guide bolts and press it in. Torque bearing cover bolts.

    Tightening torque: 96~120 lb-in. (10.8~13.7 N.m, 110~140 kg-cm) 

  4. Remove bearing outer race and adjustment shims from bearing housing using a pin punch and hammer.

    NOTE:
    • Measure clearance around entire circumference and select shims equivalent to maximum clearance.
    • The maximum allowable number of shims is 7.
  15. Measure clearance. Select adjustment shim(s) equivalent to measured clearance. Refer to SHIM IDENTIFICATION  table
