      Note


      • Make sure to check the identification marks on the rear drive shaft oil seals before installation because the part numbers differ between the left and right sides.

      • To ensure a proper seal, evenly tap in the rear drive shaft oil seal.

      • When installing the rear drive shaft oil seal, tap it in until the outer surface is flush with the torque transfer module.

      • Make sure the difference between the maximum and minimum measured values of the oil seal installation depth is less than 0.58 mm (0.0228 in.), as a greater difference may lead to fluid leaks.
