PTO Gasket/Shim NAPA part numbers anyone?

[porkysplace]

TM 9-2520-246-34P has a part number listed and says two are needed (I assume one under the PTO and one under the PTO cover) but no reference to thickness or if multiple need to be stacked for accurate gear depth. Does this really need to be set or is one gasket what most folks use? Inquiring minds want to know.

If it is not shimmed right it can make the transmission hard to shift , so yes it needs to be shimmed right.

Thanks for the response. I've been working on installing a winch on my truck for several months now in my spare time which is always tight. Every turn requires me to learn something new and slows the progress. I will get several gaskets. I appreciate the help. ballencd

That helped a lot. Thanks for directing me to George's instructions. That was where I was going to get the gaskets in the first place.

You will need 0.008" clearance or "backlash" for the PTO and transmission to operate correctly.
