Forward Gear Backlash
Check forward gear backlash as follows:
• Apply down pressure on the driveshaft
• Push up on the pinion gear (gear floats on the driveshaft)
• Rock the forward gear back and forth
A light clicking sound (0.050–0.152 mm [0.002–0.006 in.]) should be heard. If excessive freeplay exists (over 0.30 mm
[0.012 in.]), the gear housing components should be inspected for wear. If no freeplay exists, either the forward gear or forward
gear bearing are not seated properly in the gear housing or the lower driveshaft bearing (above the pinion gear) is positioned
too low in the driveshaft housing.
Propeller Shaft
NOTE: Verify the shift cam is aligned properly in the gear housing.
Install the propeller shaft assembly into the forward gear/bearing assembly.
