  13. Check the clearances of the double cone synchronizer for 1st gear. If any of the clearances are beyond specification, install new parts as a set.
    NOTE:
    • The outer synchronizer ring, synchronizer cone and inner synchronizer ring have a set control clearance. If the measurement exceeds specification, install all 3 parts as a set.

  14. Using the Dial Indicator with Holding Fixture and the Bearing Puller, measure the clearance at 2 or more points diagonally between the synchronizer cone and the inner synchronizer ring. Install new parts if not within specification.
    NOTE:
    • If the difference in measurements is greater than 0.2 mm (0.078 in), install new parts.

  15. Measure the clearance between the outer synchronizer ring and the synchronizer cone at 2 or more points diagonally opposite and calculate the mean value. Install new parts if not within specification.
    NOTE:
    • If the difference in measurements is greater than 0.2 mm (0.078 in), install new parts.

  16. Check the clearances of the triple cone synchronizer for 2nd gear. If any of the clearances are beyond specification, install new parts as a set.
    CAUTION:
    • The outer synchronizer ring, synchronizer cone and inner synchronizer ring have a set control clearance. If the measurement exceeds specification, install all 3 parts new as a set.
  17. Measure the clearance at 2 or more points diagonally opposite and calculate the mean. If the measurement is not within specification, install new parts.
    NOTE:
    • If the difference in measurements is greater than 0.3 mm (0.01 in), install new parts.

  18. Measure the clearance at 2 or more points diagonally opposite and calculate the mean. If the measurement is not within specification, install new parts.
    NOTE:
    • If the difference in measurements is greater than 0.17 mm (0.007 in) install new parts.
