to Section 6A1.
2) For 4WD vehicle, remove transfer referring to Section 7D
For 2WD vehicle, remove engine rear mounting No.1
bracket and engine rear mounting No.2 bracket with stiff-
ener.
3) Remove torque converter housing lower plate (1).
4) Remove drive plate bolts.
To lock drive plate (1), engage a flat head rod or the like (2)
with drive plate gear.
5) Remove starting motor.
6) Remove bolts and nut fastening engine and transmission,
then detach transmission from engine.
NOTE:
When detaching transmission from engine, move it in
parallel with crankshaft and use care so as not to apply
excessive force to drive plate and torque converter.
WARNING:
Be sure to keep transmission with torque converter hori-
zontal or facing up throughout the work. Should it be
tilted with torque converter down, converter may fall off
and cause personal injury.

7F-2 REAR DIFFERENTIAL
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The differential assembly uses a hypoid bevel pinion and gear.
The differential assembly is decisive in that the drive power is concentrated there. Therefore, use of genuine
parts and specified torque is compulsory. Further, because of sliding tooth meshing with high pressure between
bevel pinion and gear, it is mandatory to lubricate them by hypoid gear oil.
VISCOUS COUPLING
The 4WD vehicle is equipped with a viscous coupling (1) in front of the rear differential.
The 4WD mechanism used for this vehicle distributes optimum driving force to the front and rear wheels accord-
ing to road conditions and driving conditions.
