MHP/MXP/VHP/VXP Auxiliary Countershaft Installation

Special Instructions

To assist in the Auxiliary Section Assembly, an Auxiliary Section fixture can be made out of a 2” x 12’ piece of wood.

This fixture is designed to ease the assembly of the Auxiliary gearing. Set the Auxiliary Countershaft Front bearings in the 3” holes to maintain the gearing positions when combining with the Auxiliary Mainshaft Assembly.

Set the Assembled Auxiliary Mainshaft between the Countershafts with the timing marks on all 3 sets of gearing aligned.

Special Tools

  • RR1002TR Auxiliary Countershaft Support Straps
  • Bearing drivers
  • Maul

Component Identification

None

Auxiliary Countershaft Installation

  1. Place the Countershaft Assembly vertical on a clean flat surface. If the countershaft bearings were removed, use the proper bearing driver and maul to reinstall the Countershaft Bearings.

  2. Mark each Countershaft for correct timing. On each countershaft there is a “0” stamped on the countershaft. Mark the corresponding tooth with a highly visible paint pen. Also mark the Splitter Gear mating gears on each countershaft.

  11. Apply Eaton Sealant #71205 or equivalent to the retaining cap screws, and install the six (6) cap screws in the non-chamfered holes. Torque to 35-45 lb-ft (47.45-61.01N•m).

    _Graphics/Web/Aux CS Installation Step 11.png
  12. Install the Auxiliary Countershaft Bearing Races.

    _Graphics/Web/Aux CS Installation Step 12.png
  13. Install each Auxiliary Countershaft Retaining Strap with 2- 3/8” NC x 1” NC and 1 3/8” NC x 2-1/2” clean cap screws.

    Note: Do not use an air gun on strap bolts. Tighten by hand until cap screws are snug

Range Cylinder and Piston Installation

  1. To assist in the installation of the Range Cylinder, place the Auxiliary section in a vice.

  2. Position a new gasket on the range Cylinder Mounting Surface of the Auxiliary Case.

  3. Install the Range Cylinder through the Range Cylinder Bore on the Auxiliary Case housing. Position the Range Yoke Fork inside the open section of the cylinder.

  4. Install Range Yoke Bar from the rear of the Auxiliary case.

    Note: Ensure that the Yoke Bar passes through the eye of the Yoke fork.

    _Graphics/Web/Aux Section Assembly Range Cylinder Installation Step 4.png
  5. Align the 2 groves on the Yoke Bar and install the 2 retaining bolts through the bores on the Range Yoke Fork.

  6. Install new O-rings on the ID and OD of the piston, then lubricate with silicone.

    _Graphics/Web/TRSM_0970_range cyl rebuild assy 4.png
  7. Install Piston into the bore of the Range Cylinder Install with the flat side of the piston facing rearward.

    _Graphics/Web/Aux Section Assembly Range Cylinder Installation Step 7.png
  8. Secure the piston with the retaining nut, torque to 70-85 lb-ft (94.91-115.24 N•m).

Splitter Cylinder Installation

  1. With the Auxiliary Section still in the vice. Position the Splitter Sliding Clutch on the Splitter Yoke fork and bar. Engage into the Splitter Gear to maintain its position

    _Graphics/Web/Aux Section Splitter Cylinder Installation Step 1a.png_Graphics/Web/Aux Section Splitter Cylinder Installation Step 1b.png
  2. Install small O-ring in the Cylinder Housing Bore if previously removed

  3. Position a new gasket between the Splitter Cylinder and the Auxiliary Case Housing bore. Install the Splitter Cylinder.

    _Graphics/Web/Aux Section Splitter Cylinder Installation Step 3.png
  4. Install new O-rings on the ID and OD of the piston. Lubricate with silicone.

    _Graphics/Web/Aux Section Splitter Cylinder Installation Step 4.png
  5. Install new O-ring on the end of the yoke bar inside of the cylinder housing.

  6. Install the piston into the Splitter Cylinder with the recessed side facing the rear of the transmission.

Auxiliary Countershaft Shimming and Installation

  1. Remove the Auxiliary Countershaft support straps and install a 0.100” shim between the cover and Auxiliary Countershaft. Use two of the counter shaft bearing cover bolts and torque bolts to 7 lb-in. Spin the Output Shaft multiple times to assist in seating the bearing races. Ensure cap screws are still torqued at 7 lb-in.

    _Graphics/Web/Aux CS Shimming Step 1.png
  2. Using feeler gages, measure the gap between the Auxiliary Countershaft covers and the Auxiliary Case. Use multiple positions closest to the cap screws.

    _Graphics/Web/Aux CS Shimming Step 2.png
  3. Subtract the thickness of feeler gauges needed to fit in between the auxiliary case and auxiliary counter shaft covers from 0.100". Use that number to pick a shim that will allow for end-play of within 0.001"–0.005".

    Note: Example: 0.042" of feeler gauges fit in between auxiliary case and the auxiliary Counter Shaft bearing cover. Subtract 0.042" from 0.100" which equals 0.058". A shim of 0.052"–0.055" would be required for the 0.003"–0.005" end-play. (If the required thickness shim does not exist, use the closest undersized shim.)

  4. Install required shim into bearing bore. Install new Auxiliary Countershaft gaskets and install Auxiliary Countershaft Covers.
