A
|
 |
IDEAL CONTACT Pattern is spread
evenly over tooth's profile with concentration nearer toe than
heel. |
|
B
|
 |
COMPETITION CONTACT Pattern concentrated just up
from the toe covering 1/3 to 1/2 of the tooth. |
|
C
|
 |
HIGH CONTACT Pattern is concentrated at the crown
of the drive gear tooth. |
Move the
pinion deeper in towards the differential carrier (add pinion
shim). |
D
|
 |
LOW CONTACT Pattern is concentrated in the root
of the drive gear tooth. |
Move the
pinion out away from the differential carrier (subtract pinion
shim). |
E
|
 |
HEEL CONTACT Pattern is concentrated off the heel
end of the drive gear tooth. |
Move the
ring gear closer to the pinion (decrease backlash) while maintaining
minimum backlash. |
F
|
 |
TOE CONTACT Pattern is concentrated off the toe end of the drive gear
tooth. |
Move the
ring gear away from the pinion (increase backlash) while maintaining
minimum backlash. |
