GENERAL INFORMATION
FRONT AXLE26-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
M1261000100347
The front axle consists of front hubs, knuckles, wheel
bearings and driveshafts, and has the following
features:
•The wheel bearing is a double-row angular
contact ball bearing which incorporates the oil
seals and is highly resistant to thrust loads.
•The driveshaft incorporates BJ-TJ type constant
velocity joints with high transmission efficiency for
low vibration and noise.•The dynamic damper has been mounted on the
driveshaft to reduce differential gear noise.
•ABS rotor for detecting the wheel speed is
press-fitted to the BJ.
NOTE: .
•TJ: Tripod Joint
•BJ: Birfield Joint

DRIVE SHAFT ASSEMBLY
FRONT AXLE26-16
CAUTION
•Do not pull on the drive shaft; doing so will
damage the TJ; be sure to use the pry bar.
•When pulling the drive shaft out from the
transmission, be careful that the spline part of
the drive shaft does not damage the oil seal.
3. Insert a pry bar between the transmission case
and the drive shaft, and then pry and remove the
drive shaft from the transmission.4. Use special tool plug (MB991460) to prevent the
entry of foreign material into the transmission
case.
CAUTION
Do not apply pressure to the wheel bearing by
the vehicle weight to avoid possible damage
when the drive shaft is removed. If, however,
vehicle weight must be applied to the bearing in
moving the vehicle, temporarily secure the wheel
bearing by using the following special tools.
