a. Remove threescrews anddetach bearing retainer.

• One ofthese threescrews istorx type andshould be
removed withasuitable tool,asshown.

b. Remove inputshafttogether withmainshaft bytapping
lightly.

• Always withdraw mainshaft straightout.Failure todo so
can damage resinoilchannel onclutch housing side.
• Do not draw outreverse idlershaft fromclutch housing
because thesefittings willbeloose.
• When removing inputshaft, becareful nottoscratch oilseal

Removal andInstallation
CAUTION:
• Before removing therear suspension assembly,disconnect
the ABS wheel sensor fromtheassembly. Failuretodo so
may result indamage tothe sensor wiresandthesensor
becoming inoperative.

• Remove suspension assembly.
1. Disconnect brakehydraulic linesandparking brakecableat
toggle lever.(Models withdrum brakes.)
• Drain brake fluidbefore disconnecting brakelines.
2. Disconnect parkingbrakecablefromcaliper andremove
brake caliper androtor. (Models withdiscbrakes.)

Suspend caliperassembly withwire soasnot tostretch brake
hose.
Be careful nottodepress brakepedal, orpiston willpop out.
Make surebrake hoseisnot twisted.

3. Using atransmission jack,raise torsion beamalittle, and
remove nutsandbolts fromthetrailing arm,shock absorber
assembly (lowerside)andlateral link.
4. Lower transmission jack,andremove suspension.
5. Remove luggagecompartment trim.Refer toBT section.
6. Remove strutsecuring nuts(upper side).Thenpulloutstrut
assembly.
• Install suspension assembly.

CAUTION: Refill withnewbrake fluid"DOT
3".

Never reusedrained brakefluid.

1. Attach torsion beam,attrailing armandlateral link,tovehi-
cle. Donot tighten boltsatthis time.
2. Using atransmission jack,place lateral linkand control rod
horizontally againsttorsionbeam.Tighten laterallinkon
vehicle.
3. Attach shockabsorber assembly tovehicle. Thentighten the
lower sideofshock absorber assembly.
4. Lower torsion beamtofully extended position.Remove
transmission jackandtighten torsion beam,attrailing arm,
to specified torque.RefertoRA-8.
5. Install brakehydraulic linesandtighten flarenuts.

SST681B Checking
Fluidlevel

Check fluidlevel using dipstick onreservoir cap,orreferring to
the scale onreservoir tank.
Use "HOT" rangeforfluid temperatures of50 to80°C (122to

176°F).

Use "COLD" rangeforfluid temperatures of0to 30°C (32to

86°F).
CAUTION:
• Donot overfill.
• Recommended fluidisAutomatic Transmission Fluid
''DEXRON™,, typeorequivalent.
Checking Fluidleakage

Check thelines forimproper attachment andforleaks, cracks,
damage, looseconnections, chafingordeterioration.
1. Run engine between idlespeed and1,000 rpm.

Make suretemperature offluid inoil tank rises to60 to80°C
(140 to176°F).

2. Turn steering wheelright-to-Ieft severaltimes.
3. Hold steering wheelateach "lock" position forfive seconds
and carefully checkforfluid leakage.

CAUTION:
Do not hold thesteering wheelinalocked position formore
than 15seconds.

4. Iffluid leakage atconnectors isnoticed, loosenflarenutand
then retighten.

Do not overtighten connectorasthis candamage O-ring,
washer andconnector.

5. Check rackboots foraccumulation ofpower steering fluid.
