Chapter 40, Problem 10ASRQ
While reviewing the procedure for setting backlash: Technician A says that backlash is adjusted along with side-bearing preload by loosening or tightening side-bearing adjusting nuts. Technician B says that normally, to decrease the amount of backlash, a thin shim is installed on one side of the gear and a thick one on the other side. Who is correct?
a Technician A only
b. Technician B only
c. Both A and B
d. Neither A nor B

Technician A says that side-bearing preload limits the amount the differential case is able to move laterally in the axle housing. Technician B says that adjusting backlash sets the depths of the mesh between the ring and pinion gears’ teeth. Who is correct?
when checking or setting the backlash it is important to have the dial indicator tip in the correct place on the ring gear. where should the tip contact the ring gear
While inspecting a planetary gear-type final drive, Technician A says blackened pinion shafts indicate severe overloading. Technician B says bluish gears indicate overheating. Who is correct?
