INSTALLATION
Installation is the reverse order of removal. For tightening torque, refer to PS-18, "COMPONENTS" .
When installing lower joint to steering gear assembly, follow the procedure listed below.
–Set rack of steering gear in the neutral position.
NOTE:
To get the neutral position of rack, turn gear-sub assembly and measure the distance of inner socket, and
then measure the intermediate position of the distance.
–Align rear cover cap projection (A) with the marking position (B)
of gear housing assembly.
–Install slit part of lower joint (C) aligning with the projection (A) of
rear cover cap (1). Make sure that the slit part of lower joint (C)
is aligned with both the projection (A) of rear cover cap (1) and
the marking position (B) of gear housing assembly.
After installation, bleed air from the steering hydraulic system.
Refer to PS-8, "
Air Bleeding Hydraulic System" .
Perform final tightening of nuts and bolts on each part under
unladen conditions with tires on level ground when removing
steering gear assembly. Check wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-
6, "Wheel Alignment Inspection" , FSU-23, "Wheel Alignment
Inspection" .
Adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor after checking wheel alignment. Refer to BRC-6, "Adjust-
ment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Make sure that steering wheel operates smoothly by turning several times from full left stop to full right stop.

FRONT OIL SEALPFP:38189
Removal and InstallationNDS000F5
CAUTION:
Verify identification stamp of replacement frequency put in the lower part of gear carrier to determine
replacement for collapsible spacer when replacing front oil seal. Refer to RFD-10, "
IDENTIFICATION
STAMP OF REPLACEMENT FREQUENCY OF FRONT OIL SEAL" . If necessary collapsible spacer
replacement, remove final drive assembly and disassemble it to replace front oil seal and collapsible
spacer. Refer to RFD-16, "
Removal and Installation" and RFD-18, "Disassembly and Assembly" .
NOTE:
The reuse of collapsible spacer is prohibited in principle. However, it is reusable on a one-time basis
only in cases when replacing front oil seal.
IDENTIFICATION STAMP OF REPLACEMENT FREQUENCY OF FRONT OIL SEAL
The diagonally shaded area in the figure shows stamping point
for replacement frequency of front oil seal.
The following table shows if collapsible spacer replacement is
needed before replacing front oil seal.
When collapsible spacer replacement is required, disassemble
final drive assembly to replace collapsible spacer and front oil
seal. Refer to RFD-18, "
Disassembly and Assembly" .
CAUTION:
Be sure to make a stamping after replacing front oil seal.
After replacing front oil seal, make a stamping on the stamping point in accordance with the table below in
order to identify replacement frequency.
CAUTION:
Stamping shall be made from left to right.
REMOVAL
1. Drain gear oil. Refer to RFD-9, "DRAINING" .
2. Make a judgment if a collapsible spacer replacement is required. Refer to RFD-10, "
IDENTIFICATION
STAMP OF REPLACEMENT FREQUENCY OF FRONT OIL SEAL" .
3. Remove center muffler with a power tool. Refer to EX-3, "
EXHAUST SYSTEM" .
4. Remove rear wheel sensor. Refer to BRC-57, "
WHEEL SENSOR" .
5. Remove drive shaft from final drive. Then suspend it by wire etc. Refer to RAX-8, "

tector.
c. Put a suitable drift on the center of side flange, then drive it until
sound changes.
NOTE:
When installation is completed, driving sound of the side flange
turns into a sound which seems to affect the whole final drive.
d. Confirm that the dimension of the side flange installation (Mea-
surement A) in the figure comes into the following.
9. Install drive shaft. Refer to RAX-8, "
REAR DRIVE SHAFT" .
10. Install rear wheel sensor. Refer to BRC-57, "
WHEEL SENSOR"
