refrigerant container.


1) Make sure the evacuation process is correctly completed.
2) Connect the center-hose of the manifold gauge to the refrigerant container. •
••
•
Turn the charge valve handle counterclockwise to purge
to the charging line and purge any air exiting in the
center-hose of the manifold gauge.
3) Open the low-pressure hand valve and charge the refrigerant about 200 g (0.44 lbs.). •
••
•
Make sure the high-pressure hand valve is closed.
•
••
•
Avoid charging the refrigerant by turning the refrigerant
container upside down.
4) Close the low-pressure hand valve of the manifold gauge. •
••
•
Check to ensure that the degree of pressure does not
change.
5) Check the refrigerant leaks by using a HFC-134a leak detector. •
••
•
If a leak occurs, repair the leak connection, and start all
over again from the first step of evacuation.
6) If no leaks are found, open the low-pressure hand valve of the manifold gauge. Then continue charging refrigerant to
the system. •
••
•
W hen charging the system becomes difficult:
(1) Run the engine at Idling and close the all vehicle doors.
(2) A/C switch is "ON".
(3) Set the fan control knob (fan switch) to its highest position.
(4) Set air source selector lever to “RECIRC”



WARNING
BE ABSOLUTELY SURE NOT TO OPEN THE HIGH-
PRESSURE HAND VALVE. SHOULD THE HIGH-
PRESSURE HAND VALVE BE OPENED, THE HIGH-
PRESSURE REFRIGERANT GAS WOULD FLOW
BACKWARD, AND THIS MAY CAUSE THE REFRIGERANT
CONTAINER TO BURST.
7) W hen the refrigerant container is emptied, use the following procedure to replace it with a new refrigerant container.
(1) Close the low-pressure hand valve.
(2) Raise the needle upward and remove the charge valve.
(3) Reinstall the charge valve to the new refrigerant container.
(4) Purge any air existing in the center hose of the manifold gauge.

3A-2 FRONT ALIGNMENT

Front End Alignment Inspection and
Adjustment
General Description
“Front End Alignment” refers to the angular relationship
between the front wheels, the front suspension attaching parts
and the ground.
Proper front end alignment must be maintained in order to
insure efficient steering, good directional stability and to
prevent abnormal tire wear.
The most important factors of front end alignment are wheel
toe-in, wheel camber and axle caster.





Camber:
This illustration shows a view from the front of the vehicle.
Camber is the vertical tilting inward or outward of the front
wheels. W hen the wheels tilt outward at the top, the camber is
positive (+). W hen the wheels tilt inward at the top, the camber
is negative (-). The amount of tilt measured in degrees from
the vertical is called the camber angle (1). If camber is extreme
or unequal between the wheels, improper steering and
excessive tire wear will result. Negative camber causes wear
on the inside of the tire, while positive camber causes wear to
the outside.



Caster:
This illustration shows a view from the side of the vehicle.
Caster (1) is the vertical tilting of the wheel axis either
forward or backward (when viewed from the side of the
vehicle). A backward tilt is positive (+) and a forward tilt is
negative (-). On the short and long arm type suspension
you cannot see a caster angle without a special instrument, but
if you look straight down from the top of the upper control arm
to the ground, the ball joints do not line up (fore and aft) when
a caster angle other than 0 degrees is present. W ith a positive
angle, the lower ball joint would be slightly ahead (toward the
front of the vehicle) of the upper ball joint center line.



Toe-in:
This illustration shows a view from the top of the vehicle.
Toe-in is the measured amount the front wheels are turned in.
The actual amount of toe-in is normally a fraction of a degree.
Toe-in is measured from the center of the tire treads or from
the inside of the tires. The purpose of toe-in is to insure parallel
rolling of the front wheels and to offset any small deflections of
the wheel support system which occurs when the vehicle is
rolling forward. Incorrect toe-in results in excessive toe-in and
unstable steering. Toe-in is the last alignment to be set in
the front end alignment procedure.

Diagnosis of Propeller Shaft and
Universal Joint

Condition Possible cause Correction
Rough surface on splined yoke;
burred nicked or worn. Replace the seal. Minor burrs can
be Smoothed by careful use of
crocus cloth or fine stone honing.

REAR AXLE 4B-7
REAR AXLE ASSEMBLY
General Description
A03R300001

The rear axle assembly is of the semi–floating type in
which the vehicle weight is carried on the axle
housing .
The center line of the pinion gear is below the cente
r
line of the ring gear (hypoid drive).
All parts necessary to transmit power from the
propeller shaft to the rear wheels are enclosed in a
banjo type axle housing.
The φ220 mm (8.6 in) or φ194mm (7.6 in) ring gea
r
rear axle uses a conventional ring and pinion gear set
to transmit the driving force of the engine to the rea
r
wheels. This gear set transfers this driving force at a
90 degree angle from the propeller shaft to the drive
shafts.
The axle shafts are supported at the wheel end of the
shaft by a double tapered roller bearing.
The pinion gear is supported by two tapered rolle
r
bearings. The pinion depth is set by a shim pack
located between the gear end of the pinion and the
roller bearing that is pressed onto the pinion. The
pinion bearing preload is set by crushing a collapsible
spacer between the bearings in the axle housing.
The ring gear is bolted onto the differential cage with
12 bolts.
The differential cage is supported in the axle housing
by two tapered roller bearings. The differential and ring
gear are located in relationship to the pinion by using
selective shims and spacers between the bearing and
the differential cage. To move the ring gear, shims are
deleted from one side and an equal amount are added
to the other side. These shims are also used to
preload the bearings, which are pressed onto the
differential cage. Two bearing caps are used to hold
the differential into the rear axle housing.
The differential is used to allow the wheels to turn at
different rates of speed while the rear axle continues
to transmit the driving force. This prevents tire
scuffing when going around corners and prevents
premature wear on internal axle parts.
The rear axle is sealed with a pinion seal, a seal at
each axle shaft end, and by a liquid gasket between
the differential carrier and the axle housing.
