GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Most universal and constant velocity joints require no maintenance. They are lubricated for life and can not be
lubricated on the vehicle. If universal and constant velocity joints becomes noisy or worn, it must be replace.
The propeller shaft is a balanced unit. Handle it carefully so that balance can be maintained.
DIAGNOSIS

Condition Possible Cause Correction
Abnormal noise
Loose universal joint bolt Tighten universal joint bolt.
Spider bearing worn out or stuck Replace.
Wear spider Replace propeller shaft.
Vibration
Performed propeller shaft Replace.

PROPELLER SHAFT JOINT CHECK
If universal joints are suspected of producing chattering or rattling
noise, inspect them for wear. Check to see if cross spider rattles
in yokes or if splines are worn down and replace defective propel-
ler shaft with new one.
Noise coming from universal joint can be easily distinguished
from other noises because rhythm of chattering or rattling is in
step with cruising speed. Noise is pronounced particularly on
standing start or in coasting condition (when braking effect of
engine is showing in the drive line).
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
REMOVAL
1) Hoist vehicle.
2) Before removing propeller shaft, give match mark (1) on pro-
peller shaft and companion flange as shown. Also give
match mark (1) on propeller shaft No.2 and center support
flange of propeller shaft No.1.
3) Loosen propeller shaft bolt at front and rear end, and sepa-
rate propeller shaft from transfer and rear differential.

4) Loosen propeller shaft bolt connecting propeller shaft No.1
with propeller shaft No.2, but keeping their connection provi-
sionally.
5) Loosen center support bolt, then remove propeller shaft
No.1 with No.2.
6) Disconnect propeller shaft No.1 from propeller shaft No.2.
INSPECTION
Check propeller shaft connecting bolts for looseness. If
looseness is found, tighten to specified torque.
Check propeller shaft joints for wear, rattle and damage. If
any defect is found, replace.
Check propeller shaft center support for biting of foreign mat-
ter, crack, abnormal noise and damage. If any defect is
found, replace.
Inspect propeller shaft and flange yoke for damage, and pro-
peller shaft for runout.
If damage is found or shaft runout exceeds its limit, replace.

Limit : 0.7 mm (0.028 in.) CAUTION:
Don’t damage joint seal (1) to prevent lubrication defect
of joint.

NOTE:
All front fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital parts
and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of same
part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a replacement
part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassem-
bly to assure proper retention of all parts. There is to be no welding as it may result in extensive dam-
age and weakening of the metal.
