Hi all, I put together the right final today. Got new seals in there. After I got it back together, I put it on the floor to get ready to put in the main drive shaft and brake drum. It made a "clunk" sound when it was lowered to the floor. Upon inspection it seems like the hub is able to move in and out about 1/16". Now with the shims in place and the nut tight this should not be happening.
Here"s what I think.........The big bearing on the hub (#25 in manual) must not be seated up tight in it"s hole. The only thing I can see that might cause this is that bearing #22 is bottomed out on the shaft even though it has the thick shim behind it. I may have to put 1 more thin shim back there to pull the shaft another 1/16". OR should I take the thick shim out and put the thin one in there instead?
I have to keep in mind that the big bearing #25 on the hub end should be tight on the shaft. Does the bearing retainer put pressure on, and hold this bearing tight in it"s hole? Maybe the new gasket is too thick?
I"m not sure now, there is no other way to hold that bearing in it"s hole other than the retainer. The shaft and the inner bearing are definately moving together.
The is the side with the seed drive and all the parts are in just as the manual shows.
Anybody that can shed any light on this would be appreciated. I just know if I put it back on the tractor like this, there will be some clunking and side to side action felt. I checked the left side and it seems nice and tight.
