149 rebuild
Thanks for responding J-Mech. I do have a copy of the service manual and have been trying to follow it every step of the way. When I took the back plate off it did not have the white (what I was calling gaskets). When I found them in the gasket kit, I did not know for sure what they were. The service manual says to install (gaskets) and then in a side note it mentioned gasket and shims.
After reading that I was thinking metal shims.Though this was confusing to me, I am sure it was not confusing to many others. Now for another question.
1. Since the back plate only had the grey gasket, should I just use the grey gasket? Would it hurt if I used the 3 white shims. End play should be between .003/.020 inch. I sure would hate to have to remove the back plate and do it over. Thanks so much for your help and have a great day.
Bob
