In order to allow equitable parts availability to all participating dealers, please limit your initial parts order to not exceed 45% of dealership population. This is an initial order recommendation only, and the ultimate responsibility for ordering the total number of parts needed to satisfy the program lies with the dealer.
ACTION REQUIRED
Refer to Disassembly and Assembly Manual, RENR6356, "Transmission from Input Transfer Gears and Output Transfer Gears - Separate".
The transmission Gear Gp-Transfer 232-1104 needs to be removed from the planetary in order to inspect the orientation of the spacer 137-6224. The bevel edge on the spacer should be installed toward the sun gear on the input shaft. The bevel edge permits the spacer to clamp the sun gear to the shaft.
Upon inspection correct the orientation of the spacer and reassemble the transmission following the steps outlined in the Disassembly and Assembly Manual RENR6356. Image 1 illustrates the correct orientation.
