Abstract
An axial thrust bearing thickness measuring fixture for accurately comparing the axial thicknesses of two thrust bearing assemblies. The fixture includes a rigid base and a rigid plate. A clamping mechanism releasably interconnects the base and plate. It is operable to clamp the plate and base against opposite radial thrust surfaces of a bearing assembly, which might include one or more shims. Separation between the base and plate then is a function of the effective axial bearing assembly thickness. An indicator may be mounted between the base and plate to record differences in the measured axial bearing thickness.
