Tapered Roller Bearing Preload Adiustment
lf any oJ the items listed below were replaced, the tapered
roller bearing preload must be adjusted.
. Transmission housing
. Clutch housing
. Differential carrier
o Tapered roller bearing and bearing outer race
. Thrust shim
. 75 mm sham
1. Remove the bearing outer race and thrust shim
from the transmission housing (see page 13-40)'
NOTE:
. Do not reuse the thrust shim if the bearing outer
race was driven out.
. Let the transmission cool to room temperature il
the bearing outer race was removed by heating
the clutch housing.
2. Do not use more than one thrust shim to adjust the
tapered bearing preload. First try the same size
thrust shim that was removed. There are no shims
used on the clutch housing side
SHIMTHRUST
/A
After installing the thrust shim, install the bearing
outer race in the transmission housing (see page
13-40).
With the mainshaft and countershaft removed,
install the differential assembly, and torque the
clutch housing and transmission housing.
NOTE: lt is not necessary to use sealing agent be-
tween the housings.
TOBOUE; 8 x 1.25 mm: 27 N'm(2.8 kgf'm, 20 lbt'ftl
Rotate the differential assembly in both directions
to seat the tapered roller bearings.
Measure the tapered roller bearing preload at nor-
mal room temperature. Measure the starting torque
of the differential assembly in both directions with
the special tool and a torque wrench.

'1. Wrap the splines with vinyl tape to prevent damage
to the boots.
lnstall the boots onto the driveshaft, and seat the
small end of the boots into the grooves on the drive-
shaft, lf the small ends of the boots are not seated in
the grooves, the boot length adiustment will be
rncorrect.
Remove the vinyl tape from the end of the driveshaft.
Install the spider onto the driveshaft by aligning the
mark on the spider with the mark on the end of the
driveshaft.
lnstall a new circlip into the end g.oove on the drive-
shaft. Rotate the circlip in its groove to make sure its
fullv seated.

6. Reinstall the rollers to their original positions on the
spider by aligning the marks. After installation, make
sure to hold the driveshaft pointed straight up to pre-
vent the rollers from falling off.
Pack the joint and the boot with the joint grease
included with the new boot.

SUPPLEN\EN AL RES\RA(N SYSTES{ (SRS\
This model has an SRS which includes a driver's airbag in the steering wheel hub. a passenger's airbag in the dashboardabove the glove box ('97 - 00 models), and seat belt tensioners in the seat belt retractors ('98 - 00 models). Informationnecessary to safely service the SRS is included in this Service Manual. ltems marked with an asterisk (*) on the contentspage include, or are located near, SBS components. Servicing. disassembling or replacing these items will require specialprecautions and tools, and should only be done by an authorized Honda oearer.
To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could lead to peFonal iniury or death in the event of a sevore trontalcollision. allSRS service work must be performod by an authorized Honda dealer.lmproper service procedurgs, including incorrect removal and installalion of the SRS, could lead to personal iniurycaused by unintontional deployment of th€ airbags {'97 - 00 models), and seat belt tensioners ('98 - 00 modelsl.Do not bump the SRS unit. Otherwise, the system may lail in case ot a collision, or the airbags may deploy when theignition switch is ON (lll.
SRS electrical wiring harnesses are identitied by yellow colof coding. Ralated components are located in the steeringcolumn, front console, dashboard, dashboard lower panel, and in the dashboard above the glove box. Do not use elec-trical test equipment on these cilcuits,
