    4. B003Z1I

      Temporarily install the 4 nuts and 4 washers.

      Note

      Do not allow grease to adhere to the 4 bolts, 4 nuts and 4 washers.

    5. A018I3I

      Temporarily install the propeller with center bearing shaft assembly with the 4 bolts, and 4 No. 2 center support bearing washers.

      Note


      • Reuse the No. 2 center support bearing washers.

      • Do not allow grease to adhere to the 4 bolts or 4 No. 2 center support bearing washers.

    6. B003Z1I

      Fully tighten the 4 nuts.

      Torque:
      73.5 N*m  { 749 kgf*cm, 54 ft.*lbf }

  2. FULLY TIGHTEN PROPELLER WITH CENTER BEARING SHAFT ASSEMBLY


    1. B003ZUJC01
      *a Piece of Cloth

      Remove the piece of cloth or equivalent from the universal joint flange.

    2. Using a 6 mm hexagon socket wrench, fully tighten the 6 cross groove joint set bolts.

      Torque:
      26 N*m  { 265 kgf*cm, 19 ft.*lbf }
    3. B003ZHTN01

      With the vehicle unloaded, adjust the distance (A) between the rear side of the cover and shaft as shown in the illustration.

      Distance (A)
      58 mm (2.28 in.)

    4. With the vehicle unloaded, adjust the front and rear distance (A) between the edge surface of the No. 2 center support bearing assembly and the edge surface of the cushion respectively as shown in the illustration, and then tighten the bolts.

      B003ZH1C01
      *a No. 2 Center Support Bearing Assembly (for Front Side) *b No. 2 Center Support Bearing Assembly (for Rear Side)
      Distance (A)
      11.5 to 13.5 mm (0.453 to 0.531 in.)
    5. A018I3I

      Fully tighten the 4 bolts.

      Torque:
      36.8 N*m  { 375 kgf*cm, 27 ft.*lbf }

    6. Check that the center line of the bracket is at a right angle to the shaft axial direction.

  3. INSPECT AND ADJUST TRANSFER OIL

  4. INSPECT AND ADJUST JOINT ANGLE

    Note

    Measure the joint angle when the vehicle is raised using a four-post lift or when using a pit.

    Tech Tips

    If any vibration or noise occurs, perform the joint angle check as follows and replace the No. 2 center support bearing washer with a proper one.


    1. Stabilize the propeller shaft and differential.


      1. Turn the propeller shaft several times by hand to stabilize the center support bearings.

      2. Using a jack, raise and lower the differential to stabilize the differential mounting cushion.

    2. Check the No. 1 and No. 4 joint angles.

      B00407LC01
      *a No. 1 Joint Angle *b No. 4 Joint Angle

      1. Using SST, measure the transfer assembly installation angle (A) and propeller shaft assembly installation angle (B).

        SST
        09370-50010
        No. 1 Joint Angle
        Measurement Position No. 1 Joint Angle
        A-B -3.02° to -1.02°

      2. Using SST, measure the rear propeller shaft assembly installation angle (C) and rear differential carrier assembly installation angle (D).

        SST
        09370-50010
        No. 4 Joint Angle
        Measurement Position No. 4 Joint Angle
        C-D 0.71° to 2.71°

        If the measured angle is not within the specified range, adjust it with No. 2 center support bearing washer.

    3. Adjust the No. 1 joint angle and No. 4 joint angle.


      1. Select No. 2 center support bearing washers for adjustment.

        No. 2 Center Support Bearing Washer Thickness
        Part No. Thickness mm (in.)
        90201-10095 3.2 mm (0.126 in.)
        90201-10081 4.5 mm (0.177 in.)
        90201-10083 6.5 mm (0.256 in.)
        90201-10084 9.0 mm (0.354 in.)
        90201-10085 11.0 mm (0.433 in.)
        90201-10086 13.5 mm (0.531 in.)
        90201-10134 15.5 mm (0.610 in.)
        90201-10135 17.5 mm (0.689 in.)

        Note


        • Make sure to use a No. 2 center support bearing washers of the same thickness on both the right and left sides.

        • Do not use 2 or more washers on a bolt.

  5. INSTALL NO. 2 ENGINE UNDER COVER
