COMPONENTS
WITH (A240L) & (A241H) TRANSAXLE ONLY.
INSPECTION OF COUNTER SHAFT COMPONENTS
1. MEASURE PLANETARY SUN GEAR BUSHING INSIDE DIAMETER
Using a caliper gauge, measure the bushing inside diameter of the planetary sun gear as shown.
Standard inside diameter: 29.800 - 29.825 mm (1.17322 - 1.17421 in.)
Maximum inside diameter: 29.870 mm (1.17598 in.)
2. MEASURE PLANETARY PINION GEAR THRUST CLEARANCE
Using a feeler gauge, measure the planetary pinion gear thrust clearance.
Standard clearance: 0.2 - 0.5 mm (0.008 - 0.020 in.)
Maximum clearance: 0.5 mm (0.020 in.)
If the clearance is greater than the maximum, replace the planetary gear assembly.
