(1) Place the transmission with case left side facing
downward and put ST1 on bearing cup.
(2) Screw retainer assembly into left case from the bot-
tom with ST2. Fit ST3 on the transmission main shaft.
Shift gear into 4th or 5th and turn the shaft several
times. Screw in the retainer while turning ST3 until a
slight resistance is felt on ST2.
This is the contact point of hypoid gear and drive pin-
ion shaft. Repeat the above sequence several times to
ensure the contact point.

(3) Remove weight and screw in retainer without
O-ring on the upper side and stop at the point where
slight resistance is felt.
NOTE:
At this point, the backlash between the hypoid gear and
drive pinion shaft is zero.

(4) Fit lock plate
11. Loosen the retainer on the lower
side by 1-1/2 notches of lock plate and turn in the
retainer on the upper side by the same amount in order
to obtain the backlash.
NOTE:
The notch on the lock plate moves by 1/2 notch if the plate
is turned upside down.
(5) Turn in the retainer on the upper side additionally
by 1 notch in order to apply preload on taper roller
bearing.
(6) Tighten temporarily both the upper and lower lock
plates and mark both holder and lock plate for later
readjustment.
(7) Turn transmission main shaft several times while
tapping around retainer lightly with plastic hammer.
(8) Set ST1 and ST2. Insert the needle through trans-
mission oil drain plug hole so that the needle comes in
contact with the tooth surface at a right angle and check
the backlash.

10. Wheel Balancing
1) Proper wheel balance may be lost if the tire is repaired
or if it wears. Check the tire for dynamic balance, and repair
as necessary.
2) To check for dynamic balance, use a dynamic balancer.
Drive in the balance weight on both the top and rear sides
of the rim.
3) Some types of balancer can cause damage to the
wheel. Use an appropriate balancer when adjusting the
wheel balance.
4) Use genuine balance weights.
Service limit: A
Weight for steel wheel;
1.6—2.0 mm (0.063—0.079 in)
Weight for aluminum wheel;
4.6—5.4 mm (0.181—0.213 in)
CAUTION:
55 g (1.94 oz) weight used with aluminum wheel is
not available.
Balance weights are available for use with any of 14-
to 15-inch wheels.
11. Installation of Wheel Assembly to
Vehicle
1) Attach the wheel to the hub by aligning the wheel bolt
hole with the hub bolt.
2) Temporarily attach the wheel nuts to the hub bolts. (In
the case of aluminum wheel, use SUBARU genuine wheel
nut for aluminum wheel.)
3) Manually tighten the nuts making sure the wheel hub
hole is aligned correctly to the guide portion of hub.
4) Tighten the wheel nuts in a diagonal selection to the
specified torque. Use a wheel nut wrench.
Wheel nut tightening torque:
88±10 N⋅m (9±1 kg-m, 65±7 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
Tighten the wheel nuts in two or three steps by
gradually increasing the torque and working
diagonally, until the specified torque is reached. For
drum brake models, excess tightening of wheel nuts
may cause wheels to “judder”.
Do not depress the wrench with a foot; Always use
both hands when tightening.
Make sure the bolt, nut and the nut seating surface
of the wheel are free from oils.
5) If a wheel is removed for replacement or for repair of a
puncture, retighten the wheel nuts to the specified torque
after running 1,000 km (600 miles).

NOT GOOD
Adjust or instruct customer.
*1 If tires and/or rims are wider, the load to power steering system is the more. Accordingly, in a
condition, for example before fluid warms-up, relief valve may work before maximum turning angle.
In this case, steering effort may be heavy. When measured hydraulic pressure is normal, there is
no abnormal thing.
*2 In cold weather, steering effort may be heavy due to increased flow resistance of cold fluid. After
warming up engine, turn steering wheel from stop to stop several times to warm up fluid. Then if
steering effort reduces normally, there is no abnormal thing.
*3 In cold weather or with insufficient warm-up of engine, steering effort may be heavy due to exces-
sive drop of idling when turning steering wheel. In this case, it is recommended to start the vehicle
with increasing engine speed than usual. Then if steering effort reduces normally, there is no
abnormal thing. Measure hydraulic pressure.
