1. Propeller Shaft

E: ASSEMBLY
1) Precautions for assembling
(1) Assemble in the reverse order of disassembling.
(2) Check and adjust each part during assembly.
(3) Keep the shims and washers in order, so that they
are not misinstalled.
(4) Thoroughly clean the surfaces on which the shims,
washers and bearings are to be installed.
(5) Apply gear oil when installing the bearings and
thrust washers.
(6) Be careful not to mix up the right and left hand cups
of the bearings.
G3M0079
(7) Replace the oil seal with new one at every disas-
sembly. Apply chassis grease between the lips when
installing the oil seal.
G3M1037
2) Adjusting preload for front and rear bearings
Adjust the bearing preload with spacer and washer
between front and rear bearings. Pinion height adjusting
washer are not affected by this adjustment. The adjustment
must be carried out without oil seal inserted.
(1) Press rear bearing race into differential carrier with
ST1 and ST2.

(2) Insert ST1 into case with pinion height adjusting
washer and rear bearing cone fitted onto it.
CAUTION:
Re-use the used washer if not deformed.
Use a new rear bearing cone.
(3) Then install preload adjusting spacer and washer,
front bearing cone, ST2, companion flange, and washer
and drive pinion nut.

Scored, battered, or excessively worn sliding surface of com-
panion flange.Repair or replace.


2Clogged or damaged air breather. Clean, repair or replace.


3Loose bolts on differential spindle or side retainer, or incor-
rectly fitted O-ring.Tighten bolts to specified torque. Replace O-ring.


4Loose rear cover attaching bolts or damaged gasket. Tighten bolts to specified torque. Replace gasket and apply liquid
packing.


5Loose oil filler or drain plug. Retighten and apply liquid packing.


6Wear, damage or incorrectly fitting for spindle, side retainer
and oil seal.Repair or replace.
2. Seizure
Seized or damaged parts should be replaced, and also other parts should be thoroughly checked for any defect and should be
repaired or replaced as required.


1Insufficient backlash for hypoid gear. Readjust or replace.


2Excessive preload for side, rear, or front bearing. Readjust or replace.


3Insufficient or improper oil used. Replace seized part and fill with specified oil to specified level.
3. Damage
Damaged parts should be replaced, and also other parts should be thoroughly checked for any defect and should be repaired or
replaced as required.


1Improper backlash for hypoid gear. Replace.


2Insufficient or excessive preload for side, rear, or front bear-
ing.Readjust or replace.


3Excessive backlash for differential gear. Replace gear or thrust washer.


4Loose bolts and nuts such as crown gear bolt. Retighten.


5Damage due to overloading. Replace.
4. Noises when starting or shifting gears
Noises may be caused by differential assembly, universal joint, wheel bearing, etc. Find out what is actually making noise before dis-
assembly.


1Excessive backlash for hypoid gear. Readjust.


2Excessive backlash for differential gear. Replace gear or thrust washer.


3Insufficient preload for front or rear bearing. Readjust.
