   1. 

      *1	Propeller Shaft Boot Clamp
      *2	Rear Sliding Shaft Boot
      *a	Matchmark of Propeller Shaft and Sleeve Yoke
      *b	Matchmark of Pinching Portion of Propeller Shaft Boot Clamp
      *c	Pinching Portion

      Place matchmarks on the propeller shaft and sleeve yoke.

   2. Apply matchmarks at the pinching portions of the propeller shaft boot clamps of the propeller shaft and sleeve yoke.

      Tech Tips

      
      

      • Make sure to place matchmarks to clearly identify the location of the pinching portions of the propeller shaft boot clamps.

        If the pinching portions are installed at different locations than where they were located before disassembly, the rotational balance of the propeller shaft cannot be ensured, which may result in vibrations and noise.

      • Make sure that the matchmarks are different enough so that they cannot be confused with each other.

      • The location of the pinching portions may differ from the location shown in the illustration, so make sure to confirm and properly place matchmarks according to the vehicle.

   3. Using a side cutter or pliers, disconnect the 2 propeller shaft boot clamps.

   4. Disconnect the 2 propeller shaft boot clamps from the sleeve yoke.

   5. Remove the sleeve yoke, and then remove the rear sliding shaft boot and 2 propeller shaft boot clamps from the propeller shaft.
