Layshaft Shim, 1.55 mm thick, for the 4-speed manual gearbox used in V8 applications.

The shim sets the endfloat of the layshaft (countershaft) within the gearbox casing, fixing its axial position so the gears mesh correctly and bearing clearance is held within tolerance. Selective shims of differing thickness are used to bring the layshaft endfloat within specification when building or rebuilding the gearbox.

Supplied as a single 1.55 mm shim. Confirm the required thickness against the measured endfloat before fitting.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 576351 layshaft shim used for?
This 1.55mm shim sets the layshaft (countershaft) endfloat in the 4-speed manual gearbox used in V8 applications, keeping gear mesh and bearing clearance within tolerance.
How do I know if I need this shim thickness?
This shim is supplied at 1.55mm. Selective shims of different thicknesses bring layshaft endfloat within specification, so measure your actual endfloat before fitting rather than assuming this thickness is correct for your box.
Is this shim reused or replaced during a gearbox rebuild?
Layshaft shims are typically re-selected rather than reused as-is during a rebuild, since the correct thickness depends on the measured endfloat after reassembly, which can differ shim to shim.
