16. Apply Prussian Blue to both sides of the transfergear teeth lightly and evenly.
17.Rotate the companion flange in both directions until
the transfer gear rotates one full turn in both direc-
tions.
Check the transfer gear tooth contact pattern.

19. lf the transfer gear tooth contact is incorrect, adjust
the transfer gear tooth contact with a 35 mm or 25
mm th rust shim.
NOTE:
. To select a 35 mm thrust shim, refer to page 14,240.
. Do not use more than two 35 mm shims to
adjust the transfer gear tooth contact.. To select the 25 mm thrust shim, refer to page
14-243.
. Do not use more than two 25 mm shims to
adjust the transfer gear tooth contact.
Toe Contact
Use a thicker 35 mm thrust shim to move the
transfer driven gear shaft toward the transfer drivegear. Because this movement causes the transfergear backlash to change, move the transfer drivegear away from the transfer driven gear shaft to
adjust the transfer gear backlash as follows:. Increase the thickness of the 25 mm thrust
shrm.
. Reduce the thickness of the 68 mm thrust
shim by the amount of increased thickness of
the 25 mm thrust shim.
Heel Contact
Use a thinner 35 mm thrust shim to move the
transfer driven gear shaft away from the transfer
drive gear. Because thjs movement causes the
transfer gear backlash to change, move the trans-
fer drive gear toward the transfer driven gear shaft
to adjust the transfer gear backlash as follows:. Reduce the thickness of the 25 mm thrust
shim.
. Increase the thickness of the 68 mm thrust
shim by the amount of reduced thickness ofthe 25 mm thrust shim.
Flank Contaqt
Use a thinner thrust shim to move the transfer
drive gear toward the transfer driven gear shaft.Flank contact must be adjusted within the limits
of the transfer gear backlash. lf the backlash
exceeds the limits, adjust as described underHeel Contact.
Face Contaqt
Use a thicker thrust shim to move the transfer
drive gear away from the transfer driven gear
shaft. Face contact must be adjusted within the
limits of the transfer gear backlash. lf the back-
lash exceeds the limits, adjust as described
under Toe Contact.

1.Raise the reservoir. then disconnect the return hose
to drain the reservoir. Take care not to spill the fluid
on the body and parts. Wipe off any spilled fluid at
once.
2, Connect a hose of suitable diameter to the discon-
nected return hose, and put the hose end in a suit-
able container.
3. Stan the engine. let it run at idle, and turn the steer-
ing wheel from lock-to-lock several times. When
fluid stops running out of the hose, shut off the
engine. Discard the fluid.
4. Beinstallthe return hose on the reservoar.
5. Fill the reservoir to the upper level line,
6. Start the engine and run it at fast idle. then turn the
steering from lock-to-lock several times to bleed air
from the system.
7. Recheck the fluid level and add some if necessary.
Do not fill the reservoir beyond the upper level line.
