5 adjusting too.jpg
i made this tool up to set the back lash 5 setting backlash.jpg
set you dial indicator up like so (i acually did this on the coast and drive side but alot of ppl just to it on the drive side) 5 adjustin backlash.jpg
you adjust the back lash by scewing the carrier bearing adjuster side to side to move the crown wheel (or ring gear) closer to or further away from the pinion gear
ill take a pic of the pinion gear in a sec and put it up so folks can see what it is.
dont forget that once you have set the back lash you also need to load the carrier bearing up (called preload .... your tighten the carrier bearing adjusters so there is load on the carrier bearing and they are tight up in their races)
almost got the front all put back together. have to stop soon i gotta goto the gym in a couple hours and i still have to plug laptop into my ss before i go out. i was driving down belconnen road the other day (in canberra) and the bloody thing started running real ruff then stalled right in the damn left hand lane i had to get out and push it of the road like a loser.
people were behind me and everything and im pushing my ss to the side of the road damn thing (nice word)
i think i might of got a bad dose of fuel from the woolies servo.
dont ever want that happening to me again was damn embarrassing.
anyway i have to run it up on efi live (program that talks to the pcm (onboard computer)) and pull the error codes and see what happened
Good work, btw I consider a clean bench if I can see enough of the bench top for the job at hand. Any more is a waste of working time. You should have a crank sensor from the stuffed motor shouldn't you? This should get me subscribed to this thread.
