TRANSFER ASSEMBLY
Dismounting and remounting of transfer and transmission together
as a unit is described in Section 7A for Manual Transmission or 7B1
for Automatic Transmission, but it is also possible to dismount and
remount transfer assembly by itself as described below.
DISMOUNTING
IN ENGINE ROOM
1) Disconnect negative (±) cable from battery.
2) Remove distributor assembly (if equipped).
3) Place wood block between engine and dash panel so that it
serves as stopper when engine, transmission and transfer unit
hangs down as rear mounting member is removed.
CAUTION:
Make sure to use wood block to prevent contact which
may occur between dash panel and CMP sensor case
(G16), CMP sensor (J20) or intake manifold (H25), and fan
and shroud.
IN CABIN
1) Remove console box.
2) Remove shift lever of transmission and transfer.
ON LIFT
1) Drain transfer oil.
2) Remove rear propeller shaft.
3) Remove front propeller shaft.
4) Disconnect exhaust center pipe.
5) Disconnect speed sensor coupler.
6) Place transmission jack and remove mounting member.
7) Lower transmission jack gradually and check to ensure that
wood block serves as stopper between engine and dash panel.
8) Remove bolts for gear shift lever case.
9) Pull off breather hose.

IN CABIN
Remove gear shift lever case and then remove transfer center case
bolt.
ON LIFT
1) Remove transfer mounting (engine rear mounting) by removing
bolts.
2) Apply transmission jack to transfer to support it.
3) Remove couplers for 4WD / 4WD-LOW switches lead.
4) Remove transfer front case bolts.
5) With transfer assembly supported with transmission jack, slide
it rearward and when it is apart from transmission, lower it.
REMOUNTING
For remounting, reverse dismounting procedure described above,
noting following.

Be sure to use specified torque for tightening.

Clamp wiring and breather hose securely.

Clamp shift lever boot securely.

Fill specified gear oil by specified amount.

Connect battery and check for function.

DIFFERENTIAL (FRONT) 7E-1
The differential assembly using a hypoid bevel pinion
and gear is installed to the front axle.
4WD control system controls drive force to be trans-
mitted to front axles or not. The reduction ratio varies
depending on transmission or engine type.The differential assembly is decisive in that the drive
power is concentrated there. Therefore, use of genu-
ine parts and specified torque is compulsory. Further,
because of sliding tooth meshing with high pressure
between bevel pinion and gear, it is mandatory to lu-
bricate them by hypoid gear oil.
