Tire RotationNLS0006U

After rotation the tires, adjust the tire pressure.

Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle has been driven for
1,000 km (600 miles) (also in cases of a flat tire, etc.).
CAUTION:

Do not include the T-type spare tire when rotating the tires.

When installing wheels, tighten them diagonally by dividing
the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels
from developing any distortion.
Checking Brake Fluid Level and LeaksNLS0006V

If fluid level is extremely low, check brake system for leaks.
Checking Brake Lines and CablesNLS0006W

Check brake fluid lines and parking brake cables for improper
attachment, leaks, chafing, abrasions, deterioration, etc.
Changing Brake FluidNLS0006X
1. Drain brake fluid from each bleed valve.
2. Refill until new brake fluid comes out from each bleed valve. Use same procedure as in bleeding hydraulic system to refill
brake fluid.
Refer to BR-10, "
Bleeding Brake System" .

Refill with recommended Genuine Nissan Super Heavy Duty
Brake Fluid or equivalent DOT 3 (US FMVSS No. 116).
Refer to MA-12, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRI-
CANTS" .

Never reuse drained brake fluid.

Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas. Tightening torque of wheel nut
: 108 N·m (11 kg, 80 ft-lb)

12. Remove right and left rear cables installation nuts, bolts, and remove right and left rear cable assembly from the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
1. Install in the reverse order of removal. Tighten the mounting bolts and nuts to the specified torque. Referto PB-4, "
Components" .
CAUTION:
Do not reuse adjusting nut after removing it.
2. Adjust parking brake. Refer to PB-3, "

As shown in the figure, while fixing yoke on one side, check axial
play of joint. If outside the standard, replace propeller shaft
assembly.

Check propeller shaft for bend and damage. If damage is
detected, replace propeller shaft assembly.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble joints.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, install in the reverse order of removal.

Align matching marks to install propeller shaft to final drive com-
panion flange, and then tighten to specified torque. Refer to PR-
4, "Components" .
CAUTION:
Do not reuse the bolts.

After assembly, perform a driving test to check propeller shaft
vibration. If vibration occurred, separate propeller shaft from
final drive or transfer. Reinstall companion flange after rotating it
by 90, 180, 270 degrees. Then perform driving test and check
propeller shaft vibration again at each point. Journal axial play : 0 mm (0 in)

INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Avoid damaging the rebro joint boot, protect it with a shop towel or equivalent.

Align matching marks to install propeller shaft to final drive and transfer (AWD models only) companion
flanges, and then tighten to specified torque. Refer to PR-8, "
Components" .

Install center bearing mounting bracket (Upper) with its arrow
mark facing forward.

Adjust position of mounting bracket sliding back and forth to pre-
vent play in thrust direction of center bearing insulator. Install
bracket to vehicle.

After assembly, perform a driving test to check propeller shaft
vibration. If vibration occurred, separate propeller shaft from
final drive. Reinstall companion flange after rotating it by 60,
120, 180, 240, 300 degrees. Then perform driving test and
check propeller shaft vibration again at each point.

If propeller shaft or final drive has been replaced, connect them
as follows:
1. Install the propeller shaft while aligning its matching mark A with the matching mark B on the joint as close as possible.
2. Tighten the joint bolts to the specified torque. Refer to PR-8,
"Components" .
CAUTION:
Do not reuse the bolts, nuts and washers.
