Nissan Micra Manual Transaxle Disassembly Steps 6-10 - Final Drive & Shifter
Service manual page MT-8 with step-by-step transaxle disassembly illustrations for final drive, shift rod and select lever removal.
This is page MT-8 from a factory service manual, covering steps 6 through 10 of a manual transaxle disassembly procedure. Step 6 instructs raising both the input shaft and mainshaft just enough to remove and withdraw the final drive assembly (illustrations SMT884 and SMT885). Step 7 covers removing the bolts holding the shift rod plate and detaching the input shaft, mainshaft, shift forks, and fork rod as a unit (illustration SMT933, with a callout identifying the shift rod plate). Step 8 instructs removing the retaining pin and detaching the shifter (illustration labeled 'Shifter'). Step 9 describes removing the welch plug for convenience in removing the retaining pin that holds the select lever to the select inner lever, illustrated with a hammer and punch on a wood block (SMT936). Step 10 instructs withdrawing the select lever and striking rod (SMT937). The page contains no torque specifications, part numbers, or year/model applicability statements — it is purely a sequential teardown procedure supported by line-art illustrations. It was uploaded as part of a manual scan set attributed to a 1990 Nissan Micra.
