The Honda 90523-VD6-000 Bevel Gear Shim (1.60) is a genuine OEM component designed for H3011 and H3013 riding mowers. As a direct Honda OEM part, it is manufactured to the exact specification required to maintain correct bevel gear alignment and backlash in the drivetrain. Confirm your mower's serial number against the fitment table to ensure part number 90523-VD6-000 is the right shim for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Exact Thickness Specification — the 1.60 mm designation is a precision value; installing the correct shim thickness is essential to proper bevel gear mesh and drivetrain function on H3011 and H3013 riding mowers.
- Genuine Honda OEM — sourced directly from Honda, this shim meets the same dimensional tolerances as the original part, ensuring the gear set runs with the correct clearance.
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda riding mowers may use different shim thicknesses across production runs, so always confirm your machine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering.
- Drivetrain Health — a shim of the wrong thickness causes accelerated bevel gear wear, increased noise, and eventual drivetrain failure; using the correct specification restores quiet, smooth power transfer.
A bevel gear shim is a precision-thickness spacer used to set the axial position and backlash of meshing bevel gears within the riding mower's drivetrain. By controlling the exact gap between gear faces, the shim ensures the gears transfer power smoothly and wear evenly. When the shim is missing, incorrect, or worn, gear mesh becomes imprecise, leading to noise, vibration, and accelerated wear on the bevel gear set.
