1. Block the front wheels, raise the left rear wheel. and
support it with a safety stand as shown.
Hold the tire and turn it counterclockwise continu-

lf the rotation of the wheel does not gradually
feel heavy while rotating, the 2WD system when
decelerating in a forward gear is normal.
lf the rotation of the wheel gradually feels heavy,
there is a problem in the system. Check the dif-
ferential fluid, lf the fluid is normal, reDlace the
