M/T Reverse Shift Fork Clearance Inspection

  1. Measure the clearance between the reverse idler gear (A) and the reverse shift fork (B) with a feeler gauge (C). If the clearance is more than the service limit, go to Step 2 .
    Standard:
    0.20−0.59 mm (0.008−0.023 in.)
    Service Limit:
    1.3 mm (0.051 in.)


  1. Measure the width of the reverse shift fork.
    • If the width is not within the standard, replace the reverse shift fork.
    • If the width is within the standard, replace reverse idler gear.
    Standard:
    13.4−13.7 mm (0.528−0.539 in.)
