CAUTION:

• Set input shaft on the vise with back plate and remove gears and snap rings.
• For installation and removal of snap ring, set snap ring pliers and flat pliers at both sides of snap

ring. Stretch snap ring, and move it with flat pliers.

• Disassemble gear components putting matching marks on the parts that do not affect any functions.
• The gear supporting rings are fitted tightly on the shafts, and the pressure required to remove them

is approximately 3 to 5 tons, which means that high-quality equipment is needed (press and sup-
port).

1.

Remove the bearing (1) using a press and an extractor (A) .

2.

Remove:

• the locking ring (1),
• the “rings - gears - hubs” assembly using a press, while apply-

ing pressure under the third gearusing component (A)  of the
tool  [SST: KV32910340 (Bvi. 1683)]

Measure the distance (X1) between the bearing pressure face
and the end of the ring in order to de-termine the thickness of
the thrust washer.

a.

Given that the nominal value is 154.75 

±

 0.05 mm (6.093 

±

 0.002 In), use

the following procedure:

• Thrust washer = 154.75 - X1.

b.

Example:

• X1 = 150.80 mm (5.937In).
• Thrust washer= 154.75 - 150.80 = 3.95 mm(0.156 In).

c.

Given that the shims vary by 0.06 mm (0.0024 In), in this exam-
ple, it is necessary to use the 3.96 mm (0.156 In) thrust washer
from the set.

8.

Lubricate and position the needle bearing (1) and the fourth idle
gear (2) with its synchroniser ring.

9.

Refit the thrust washer (3) then the ring (4) using a press and
component (C) of the tool [SST: KV32910340 (Bvi.1683)], posi-
tioning the lubrication holes at 90

°

 in relation to those of the

shaft.

10. Apply a final pressure of 2.5 tonnes.

11. Lubricate and position the needle bearing (1) and the fifth idle

gear (2) with its synchroniser ring.

12. Refit the fifth-sixth gear selector rod (3) using a press and com-

ponent (C) of the tool [SST: KV32910340 (Bvi.1683)], (large hub
offset on fifth gear side, selector rod offset on sixth gear side).

13. Align and engage the notches on the ring with those on the hub.

14. Position the sixth gear (1) with its synchroniser ring.

15. Lubricate and position the needle bearing (2) .
16. Refit the ring (3) using a press and component (C) of the tool

[SST: KV32910340 (Bvi.1683)], positioning the lubrication holes
at 90

°

 in relation to those of the shaft.

17. Apply a final pressure of 2.5 tonnes.
