REMOUNTING
Reverse removal procedure for installation, noting the following.
Rear Differential
Clean mating surfaces of axle housing (1) and differential
carrier and apply sealant to housing side.
“A” : Sealant 9900-31110
Install differential carrier assembly to axle housing and
tighten carrier bolts to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Differential carrier bolts
(a) : 23 N·m (2.3 kg-m, 17.0 lb-ft)
Install propeller shaft to joint flange aligning match marks (2)
and tighten propeller shaft bolts to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Propeller shaft bolts
(b) : 23 N·m (2.3 kg-m, 17.0 lb-ft)
Rear Axle Shaft
For installation of rear axle shaft, refer to “REAR AXLE SHAFT
AND WHEEL BEARING INSTALLATION” in Section 3E.
Rear Brake Drum
For installation of rear brake drum, refer to “BRAKE DRUM
INSTALLATION” in Section 5.
Differential Gear Oil
Refill differential housing with new specified oil. Refer to “OIL
CHANGE” in this section for refill.
Brake Circuit Air Purging
Make sure to purge air out of brake circuit. Refer to “BLEEDING
BRAKES” in Section 5.
Then check to ensure that joint seam of pipe is free from oil leak.

For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System :
 Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service
on or around the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in
unintentional activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
 Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system
may be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
