INFORMATION BALL AND ROLLER BEARINGS
CAUTION: Never refit a ball or roller
bearing without first ensuring that it is in a
fully serviceable condition.
1.Remove all traces of lubricant from bearing
under inspection by washing in a suitable
degreaser; maintain absolute cleanliness
throughout operations.
2.Inspect visually for markings of any form on
rolling elements, raceways, outer surface of
outer rings or inner surface of inner rings. Reject
any bearings found to be marked, since any
marking in these areas indicates onset of wear.
3.Holding inner race between finger and thumb of
one hand, spin outer race and check that it
revolves absolutely smoothly. Repeat, holding
outer race and spinning inner race.
4.Rotate outer ring gently with a reciprocating
motion, while holding inner ring; feel for any
check or obstruction to rotation, and reject
bearing if action is not perfectly smooth.
5.Lubricate bearing generously with lubricant
appropriate to installation.
6.Inspect shaft and bearing housing for
discoloration or other marking suggesting that
movement has taken place between bearing and
seatings. (This is particularly to be expected if
related markings were found in operation 2).
7.Ensure that shaft and housing are clean and free
from burrs before fitting bearing.8.If one bearing assembly of a pair shows an
imperfection it is generally advisable to replace
both with new bearings; an exception could be
made if the faulty bearing had covered a low
mileage, and it could be established that
damage was confined to it only.
9.When fitting bearing to shaft, apply force only to
inner ring of bearing, and only to outer ring when
fitting into housing. (Refer to ST1042M).
10.In the case of grease lubricated bearings (e.g.
hub bearings) fill space between bearing and
outer seal with recommended grade of grease
before fitting seal.
11.Always mark components of separable bearings
(e.g. taper roller bearings) in dismantling, to
ensure correct reassembly. Never fit new rollers
in a used outer ring, always fit a complete new
bearing assembly.

LUBRICATE PROPELLER SHAFT SLIDING , AND
UNIVERSAL JOINTS
1.Clean all grease nipples on front and rear
propeller shafts.
2.Using a low pressure hand grease gun, apply
recommended grease, to grease nipples at front
and rear propeller shaft universal and sliding
joints.
NOTE: The rear propeller shaft flexible
coupling is not fitted with a grease nipple.

OF OF BALL JOINTS AND DUST COVERS
Ball joints are lubricated for their normal life during
manufacture and require no further lubrication. This
applies ONLY if rubber boot has not been dislodged
or damaged. Joints should be checked at specified
mileage intervals but more frequently if vehicle is used
under arduous conditions.
1.Check for wear in joints by moving ball joint up
and down vigorously. If free movement is
apparent fit a new joint assembly.

REPAIR DRIVE BELT INFORMATION
A single 'serpentine drive belt' drives all the
ancilliaries bar the air conditioning compressor, which
has a separate drive belt. It is essential that the belts
are fitted exactly as shown. It should also be noted
that the water pump/viscous fan is driven in a
clockwise direction.
A drive belt tensioner automatically tensions the drive
belt, eliminating the need for tensioning individual
drive belts. Turning the tensioner pulley in a clockwise
direction will release drive belt tension.
Under normal highway use the belt must be changed
at 160,000 kilometres, 96,000 miles or eight years
whichever occurs first.
The drive belt must be examined at every service and
replaced if necessary.Off road driving
Regular examination of the drive belt is essential if the
vehicle is used off road. The vehicle driver should be
requested to identify the type of mileage the vehicle
has covered.
After every off road session the owner should inspect
the belt for cuts and possible damage caused by
stones. If belt has jumped, reposition belt correctly. A
new belt must be fitted at the next service or before,
dependant on the type of damage sustained.
Fan cowl
To ensure easy access to the drive belt the top portion
of the fan cowl is detachable.
Check condition
Check condition of drive belt. Renew a belt that shows
signs of wear, splitting or oil contamination.

REPAIR DRIVE BELT
A single 'serpentine drive belt' is introduced for 1995
model year. This belt drives the water pump and all
the ancilliaries. It is essential that the belt is fitted
exactly as shown in illustrations RR3956 and RR3957.
It should also be noted that the water pump/viscous
fan is driven in a counter clockwise direction.
A drive belt tensioner automatically tensions the drive
belt, eliminating the need for tensioning individual
drive belts. Turning the tensioner pulley in a clockwise
direction will release drive belt tension.
Under normal highway use the belt must be changed
at 120,000 kilometres, 75,000 miles or five years
whichever occurs first.
The drive belt must be examined at every service and
replaced if necessary.
Off road driving
Regular examination of the drive belt is essential if the
vehicle is used off road. The vehicle driver should be
requested to identify the type of mileage the vehicle
has covered.
After every off road session the owner should inspect
the belt for cuts and possible damage caused by
stones. If belt has jumped, reposition belt correctly. A
new belt must be fitted at the next service or before,
dependant on the type of damage sustained.

FAULT DIAGNOSIS CLUTCH ASSEMBLY CONDITIONS
For the clutch to operate correctly as described and
illustrated in the "Description and Operation", it is
important the following conditions are satisfied:-
A. The primary shaft 15 must be free in the
crankshaft spigot bush 17.
B. The friction plate 2 must be able to slide easily
on the splines on the primary shaft 15, to a
position where it does not contact either the
flywheel or the pressure plate.
C. The friction plate must not be distorted or the
linings contaminated with oil, which may cause it
to stick or continue to run in contact with the
flywheel or pressure plate.
A number of faults can develop in the operation of the
clutch for a variety of reasons and although most
faults are due to normal wear at high mileage,
problems can also occur if the unit has been renewed
by an unskilled operator.
Recognising and diagnosing a particular clutch fault is
therefore of paramount importance in ensuring, that
the problem is rectified at the first attempt.
Problems which develop in the clutch are as follows:-
A. Clutch spin/drag
B. Clutch slip
C. Clutch judder/fierceCLUTCH SPIN - DRAG
Symptoms
Clutch spin is that, with engine running and clutch
pedal depressed, the gears cannot be immediately
engaged without making a grinding noise. This
indicates the clutch is not making a clean break.
However, if the clutch pedal is held depressed for
several seconds the friction plate will eventually break
free from the engine and the gear will engage silently.
Clutch spin as it becomes more severe develops into
clutch drag, making the silent engagement of a gear
impossible, regardless of how long the pedal is held
depressed.
CLUTCH SLIP
Symptoms
Clutch slip is most evident climbing a hill or when the
vehicle is moving off from stationary with a heavy
load. As the clutch is released slip occurs between the
engine and the transmission, allowing the engine
speed to increase without a corresponding increase in
vehicle speed.
Clutch slip can develop to the stage where no power
is transmitted through the clutch as the pedal is
released.
CLUTCH JUDDER - FIERCE
Symptoms
Clutch judder or fierce engagement, like slip, is most
likely to occur when the vehicle is moving off from
stationary. As the clutch pedal is released the vehicle
will move rapidly or in a series of jerks, which can not
be controlled even by careful operation of the clutch
by the driver.
It should be noted that a vehicle may display all the
symptoms or any combination of the symptoms
described, depending on the driving conditions vehicle
load and operating temperatures.
