The Honda 90483-VB5-800 Bevel Pinion Shim (C) is a genuine OEM component designed for the HRA216, HRC215, and HRC216 lawn mowers. As a Honda OEM part, it is manufactured to the exact tolerances required to maintain correct bevel gear mesh and drivetrain alignment in these mowers. Because Honda supersedes shim specifications at serial number breaks, confirm your mower's serial number against the fitment table before ordering to ensure this is the correct shim variant for your unit. Sourcing from DHS Equipment means you receive a genuine Honda part backed by the original manufacturer.
Key Features
- OEM Shim Specification — genuine Honda construction ensures the (C) thickness variant delivers the precise gear mesh clearance the bevel pinion assembly requires
- Direct OEM Replacement — installs as a direct replacement in HRA216, HRC215, and HRC216 lawn mowers with no modification needed
- Variant Identification Matters — the (C) designation identifies a specific shim thickness; confirm this is the correct variant for your serial range before ordering
- Drivetrain Performance — correct shim thickness keeps the bevel gears running with proper contact and reduces wear on surrounding drivetrain components
A bevel pinion shim is a precisely dimensioned spacer used to set the axial position and mesh depth of the bevel pinion gear within the mower's drivetrain. Getting this clearance right is critical — too much or too little lash between the bevel gears causes accelerated wear, noise, and eventually drivetrain failure. When this shim wears, becomes damaged, or is set to the wrong thickness during reassembly, gear contact deteriorates and the self-propelled drive system loses efficiency or fails entirely.
