M , back end noise (crownwheel pinion setup)

Posted by mike on July 26, 2003 at 14:46:08 from (12.129.244.88):

I changed the rear gear housing on my M as it had been repaired at some stage of its life and still had many cracks through it.

I measured the backlash on the crownwheel as 55 thou. When I assembled the gears in the new casing although the book says 12 thou. is the correct figure, I put it back with approx 35 thou backlash. I also cut the last 3 shims that I put back in both sides to enable easy acess to do quick adjustments if necessary.

Although the gearset in the old casing ran nice and quiet, they now sound like a fire siren, and scatter the livestock for miles around. I've moved some of the shims across to open up the backlash to no avail. I've been told that to set up the crownwheel and pinion as per the book would be a waist of time as they need to run in exactly their old position.

Anybody have the answer?
