FRONT PROPELLER SHAFT ASSEMBLY REASSEMBLY


  1. INSTALL UNIVERSAL JOINT SPIDER ASSEMBLY

    A01J39OE01

    1. Apply MP grease to a new spider and 2 new spider bearings.

    2. Fit the spider into the flange yoke.

    3. A01J7HZE01

      Using SST, install the 2 spider bearings to the spider.

      SST
      09332-25010
    4. A01J5TQE02

      Using SST, adjust the spider bearings so that: 1) the flange yoke does not overlap the snap ring grooves of the spider bearings, and the grooves are as wide as possible; and 2) the groove width on both sides is the same.

    5. Install 2 new snap rings to the installed spider bearings. The snap rings must have equal thickness which will allow 0 to 0.05 mm (0 to 0.00197 in.) of axial play.

      Standard snap ring thickness
      Mark Thickness
      F 2.19 mm (0.0862 in.)
      G 2.21 mm (0.0870 in.)
      H 2.23 mm (0.0877 in.)
      J 2.25 mm (0.0885 in.)
      K 2.27 mm (0.0893 in.)
      1 2.29 mm (0.0901 in.)
      2 2.31 mm (0.0909 in.)
      3 2.33 mm (0.0917 in.)
      4 2.35 mm (0.0925 in.)
      5 2.37 mm (0.0933 in.)
      6 2.39 mm (0.0940 in.)
      7 2.41 mm (0.0948 in.)
      8 2.43 mm (0.0956 in.)
      N 2.45 mm (0.0964 in.)
      10 2.47 mm (0.0972 in.)
      A 2.49 mm (0.0980 in.)
      B 2.51 mm (0.0988 in.)
      C 2.53 mm (0.0996 in.)
      D 2.55 mm (0.1003 in.)
      E 2.57 mm (0.1011 in.)

      Note


      • New snap rings must be used.

      • The snap ring thickness must be the same on both ends.

    6. A01J6CJE01

      Using a hammer, tap the flange yoke until there is no clearance between the spider bearings and snap rings.

    7. Align the matchmarks on the flange yoke and sleeve yoke.

    8. Install new spider bearings on the sleeve yoke side.

      Tech Tips

      Use the procedures described above.

  2. INSPECT UNIVERSAL JOINT SPIDER ASSEMBLY


    1. Check the spider bearings for wear or damage.

    2. Check each spider bearing's axial play by turning the yoke while holding the shaft tightly.

      Maximum bearing axial play
      0.05 mm (0.00197 in.)

      If the axial play is greater than the maximum, replace the spider bearing.

  3. INSPECT PROPELLER SHAFT GREASE FITTING DIRECTION

    Tech Tips

    When replacing a spider bearing, be sure that the grease fitting hole is facing the direction shown in the illustration.
