KICKDOWN SERVO ADJUSTMENTM23FRAC(1) Remove dust, dirt, and other contaminants completely fromkickdown (K/D) servo cover and surrounding areas.
(2) Snap off the snap ring and remove K/D servo switch.
(3) Fit claw of special tool into cutout in piston to prevent
piston from turning and use adapter to fix the piston into
position.
Caution
1. Do not push piston with the special tool.
2.Secure adapter only hand-tight to L/R brake press-
ure take-up port and do not apply
excessiwe torque.
(4) Loosen lock nut to immediately before V-groove in adjust
rod (see illustration on left) and tighten special tool (Inner
Wrench) until it contacts lock nut.
(5) Fit special tool (Outer Wrench) over the lock nut. Turn Outer
Wrench counterclockwise and turn inner cylinder clockwise
to lock the lock nut and special tool (Inner Wrench).
(6) Fit torque wrench to special tool (Inner Wrench) and repeat
tightening and loosening cycle two times with a torque of
10 Nm (7.2 ft.lbs.). Then, torque to 5 Nm (3.6 ftlbs.).Next, back off special tool (Inner Wrench) 2 to
2’/4 turns.
(7) Fit special tool (Outer Wrench) to lock nut.
Turn Outer Wrench clockwise and Inner Wrench counter-
clockwise to unlock the lock nut from special tool (Inner
Wrench).
Caution
Be sure to apply even torque to the two special tools
when unlocking.

Bolt A
= Length 18 mm (.709 in.)
Bolt B
= Length 25 mm (.984 in.)
Bolt C
= Length 40 mm (1.575 in.)
CautionSecure solenoid valve and oil temperature sensor
harness at locations shown.
(1O)lnstall oil filter.(1l)lnstall new oil pan gasket and oil pan.
(12)Add the specified amount of ATF.
(13)Carry out hydraulic test.
Readjust as necessary.
REDUCING PRESSURE ADJUSTMENTh323FfADWhen multi-use tester is not used
(1) Following the same steps as those in line pressure
adjustment, remove parts up to oil filter.
There is no need to remove valve body.
(2) Turn adjusting screw of lower valve body to obtain the
specified reducing pressure. Turn it counterclockwise to
increase the pressure.
Standard value:425 f 10 kPa (60 f 1 psi)
Oil pressure change for
each turn of adjusting screw:45 kPa (6 psi)(3) In the same way as in line pressure adjustment,
/nstall oil
filter and oil pan.
(4) Perform hydraulic test.
Adjust as necessary.
When multi-use tester is used
(1) Adjust to obtain the specified K/D brake pressure when PC
solenoid is energized at duty 50% with the multi-use tester.
Standard value:275 kPa (39 psi)
Oil pressure change for
each turn of adjusting screw:50 kPa (7 psi)(2) After adjustment has been made, check that the recuding
pressure is in the range 360
- 480 kPa (51 - 68 psi).
Caution
This adjustment should be made with oil temperature70
- 80°C (160 - 180°F).
The adjustment made with high oil temperature couldresult in improper adjustment due to a line pressure
drop at idle.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
REAR AXLE TOTAL BACKLASH CHECKM27FAAG
If the vehicle vibrates and produces a booming sound due to an
imbalance of the driving system, measure the rear axle total
backlash by the following procedures to see if the differential
carrier assembly required removal.
(1) Place the gearshift lever in the neutral position, apply the
parking brake and jack up the vehicle.
(2) Manually turn the propeller shaft clockwise as far as it will
go and make mating marks on the companion flange dustshield and the differential carrier.
(3) Manually turn the propeller shaft counterclockwise as far as
it will go and measure the movement of the mating marks.Limit: 5 mm
(.2 in.)
(4) If the backlash exceeds the limit, remove the differential
carrier assembly and adjust the backlash. (Refer to P.27-26.)
GEAR OIL LEVEL CHECKM27FCAG1. Remove the filler plug, and check the oil level.
2. The oil level is sufficient if it reaches the filler plug hole.
Specified
gear oil:
Hypoid Gear Oil API classification GL-5 or higher
[l.l liter (1.2 q&J]
NOTEAbove -23°C (-10°F): SAE 90,
85W-90, 8OW-90From -34°C (-30°F) to -23°C (-10°F): SAE
8OW, 8OW-90Below -34°C (-30°F): SAE 75W
REAR WHEEL BEARING END PLAY CHECKM27FBAF1. Support the vehicle on axle stands positioned at the
specified locations and remove the rear wheel.
2. Separate the parking brake cable from the rear brake.
3. Remove the caliper assembly and brake disc.
4. Place a dial gauge as shown in the illustration, and then
measure the play when the axle shaft is moved in the axial
direction.Limit: 0.8 mm
(.031 in.)
5.If the play exceeds the limit, check the tightening torque ofthe companion flange of the axle shaft; if it is correct,
replace the wheel bearing.
