WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Lexus LX 470. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Reassembly is in the reverse order of disassembly. (See DISASSEMBLY )
AFTER REASSEMBLY, CHECK MAGNETIC CLUTCH CLEARANCE
- Set the dial indicator to the pressure plate of the magnetic clutch.
- Connect the magnetic clutch lead wire to the battery positive (+) terminal of the battery.
- Check the clearance between the pressure plate and the rotor when connecting the negative (-) terminal to the battery.
Standard clearance:
0.5 +/- 0.15 mm (0.020 +/- 0.0059 in.)
If the clearance is not within the standard clearance, adjust the clearance using shims to obtain the standard clearance.
Shim thickness:
0.1 mm (0.004 in.)
0.3 mm (0.012 in.)
0.5 mm (0.020in.)
