Repair procedures
•
|
Be careful not to damage the parts located under the vehicle
(floor under cover, fuel filter, fuel tank and canister) when
raising the vehicle using the lift.
(Refer to General Information - "Lift and Support Points")
|
|
1. |
After making a match mark on the flange yoke and transaxle companion,
remove the propeller shaft mounting bolts (A).
Tightening torque :
53.9 - 68.6 N.m (5.5 - 7.0 kgf.m, 39.8 - 50.6 lb-ft)
|
• |
Use a hexagon socket to prevent damage to the head when
removing and installing bolts.
|
• |
Mark the location and direction of bolt and washer before
removing the propeller shaft.
|
• |
Installing the bolt and washer differently from the
initial state can result in unbalanced propeller shaft
causing abnormal vibration of propeller shaft at high
speed.
|
• |
If abnormal vibration and noise occur at high vehicle
speeds after replacing propeller shaft with a new one,
balance the propeller shaft with a balancing machine.
|
• |
The bolt is a special bolt applied with bond, so do
not reuse.
