The Honda 90514-VD6-800 Pinion Gear Shim E (1.45MM) is a genuine OEM Pinion Gear Shim designed for H4514 and H4518 lawn tractors. As a direct Honda OEM component, this shim ships to the exact 1.45MM thickness specification required for correct pinion gear alignment in these machines. Confirm your tractor's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes shim part numbers at serial breaks where gear tolerances are updated.
Key Features
- OEM Thickness Accuracy — at 1.45MM, this shim delivers the exact axial spacing Honda specifies for the pinion gear in H4514 and H4518 lawn tractors; an incorrect thickness causes improper gear mesh and accelerated wear
- Genuine Honda OEM Part — sourced directly from Honda, part number 90514-VD6-800 matches the original component for a drop-in fit with no rework or shimming adjustment needed
- Fits H4514 and H4518 Lawn Tractors — listed for both Honda H4514 and H4518 lawn tractors; verify your serial number against the compatibility table to confirm this is the correct thickness for your unit
- Serial Number Verification Advised — Honda updates drivetrain shim specifications at serial breaks, so always check your machine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering
A pinion gear shim is a precision-thickness spacer placed within the gear assembly of a lawn tractor's drivetrain to set the correct axial position and mesh clearance of the pinion gear. Getting this clearance right is essential: too little or too much spacing causes the gear teeth to load unevenly, leading to noise, vibration, and premature wear of both the pinion and its mating gear. When this shim wears, compresses, or is lost during a drivetrain service, replacing it with the correct thickness — in this case 1.45MM — restores the manufacturer-specified gear mesh and keeps the transmission operating as intended.
