Is it necessary for teh Main Shaft Gear to just slide in place? My main shaft gear requires a punch to drive it all the way down to its seat. Secondly, is it required for the main shaft gear to spin freely when it is in place. Both my shaft and gear came out of my transfer case - they are not replacement parts.

How do I know when I have enough end play in the out put shaft on the dana 18 transfer case
Willys Tech:
For the correct bearing adjustment the shaft should have .004 to .008 end play. Adjustment is made by shim installation between the end cap and main case. Do not install rear bearing cap oil seal until the bearings are correctly adjusted.
