7. REMOVE LH DRIVE SHAFT
(a) Using a brass bar and hammer, remove the drive shaft.
HINT:
At the time of installation, please refer to the following items.

Coat gear oil to the inboard joint shaft and differen-
tial case sliding surface.

Before installing the drive shaft, set the snap ring
with its opening side facing downward.

Whether or not the inboard joint shaft is making con-
tact with the pinion shaft can be known by the sound
or feeling when driving it in.

After installation, check that there is 2 ± 3 mm (0.08
± 0.12 in.) of play in the axial direction.

After installation, check that the drive shaft cannot
be removed by hand.
(b) Using a screwdriver, remove the snap ring from the in-
board joint shaft.
