    Refer to Fastener Notice in Cautions and Notices.

    Notice

    Use a new nut due to insufficient torque retention of old nut. Clean shaft threads with a wire brush. When tightening and torquing this nut it must be done quickly with a hand wrench or torque wrench. If not done quickly, the thread locking material used on the new nut will cure in a short time resulting in an incorrect torque. Using a power tool will generate excess heat in the fastener causing a incorrect torque.

  4. Hand start the new output shaft clamp nut. Tighten the nut with a torque wrench.
  5. Tighten

    Tighten the output shaft clamp nut to 150 N·m (111 lb ft).

  7. Notice

    Make sure tabs on 1st drive gear thrust washer line up with slots on the 1st clutch housing assembly hub or damage to the 1st drive gear thrust washer will occur.

    Important

    The chamfer side goes toward the clutch housing and the flat side goes toward 1st gear.

  8. Apply a generous amount of petroleum jelly to hold the 1st drive gear thrust washer in place and install the 1st drive gear thrust washer on the 1st clutch housing assembly hub.
  9. Install the thrust bearing with the rollers (down) toward the 1st drive gear thrust washer.
  10. Install the 1st clutch, and the clutch (needle) bearing.
  11. Install the 1st drive gear and the hub assembly into the 1st clutch housing assembly by twisting the gear to align the gear hub with the clutch tangs.
  12. When installing the 1st drive gear and hub assembly into the clutch pack, rotate the gear and hub assembly back and forth to align the clutch plates. If you are not sure that all of the clutch plates have been engaged, lift the gear out of the clutch housing and verify that all clutch tangs are aligned.
  13. Install 1st drive gear thrust washer.
  14. Important

    If the assembly is not held together, the gear hub may slide out of the clutch housing, which may allow the 1st gear thrust washer to move out of location, or allow the clutch plates to be pinched when the input shaft nut is tightened.
