1 | Slightly release the locknut (2). Hold the locknut (2) and screw the thrust screw (1) until the sliding insert (3) touches the ring gear. | The back of the sliding insert in the ring gear is clearly distinguishable by increasing resistance to rotate thrust screw (1). | |
2 | Then, keep turning the thrust screw (1). If, after the sliding insert (3) touches the ring gear, the thrust screw keeps moving forward, it will be sure indication that there is slack in the bearings of the satellite box and it is, thus, necessary, to proper adjust it. | ||

1 | Remove thrust screw (1) and check slide insert condition (3). If it shows excessive wear, it will also be indication that there is slack in the satellite box bearings | The rear axle with internal hexagonal thrust screw is provided with rectangular sliding insert, so the pre-load assessment can only be obtained using method 1 since, if the thrust screw (1) is removed, the slide insert (3 ) will fall within the case. |
