Inspection of Input Shaft Assembly

INSPECT SYNCHRONIZER RING




a. Check for wear or damage.
b. Turn the ring and push it in to check the braking action.




c. Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance between the synchronizer ring back and the gear spline end.

Standard clearance: 0.7 - 1.7 mm (0.028 - 0.067 in.)
Minimum clearance: 0.5 mm (0.020 in.)

If the clearance is less than the minimum, replace the synchronizer ring.
