PROPELLER SHAFT ASSEMBLY (for TMT Made) DISASSEMBLY


  1. REMOVE CENTER NO. 1 SUPPORT BEARING ASSEMBLY

    A01DV74E01

    1. Place matchmarks on the flanges.

    2. Remove the 4 nuts and 4 washers.

    3. Separate the propeller shaft and intermediate shaft.

    4. A01E1JXE01

      Fix the flange coupling at the center bearing section in a vise.

    5. Using a chisel and hammer, loosen the staked part of the lock nut.

      Note

      Loosen the staked part of the lock nut completely. If not, the screw of the intermediate shaft may be damaged.

    6. A01DZZTE01

      Using SST and a socket wrench, remove the nut and washer.

      SST
      09330-00021
    7. A01DX0OE01

      Place matchmarks on the intermediate shaft and flange coupling.

    8. A01DY6SE01

      Using SST, remove the flange coupling from the intermediate shaft.

      SST
      09950-30012   ( 09951-03010, 09953-03010, 09954-03010, 09955-03030, 09956-03030 )

    9. Remove the center support bearing.

  2. INSPECT PROPELLER SHAFT AND INTERMEDIATE SHAFT

    A01DXO2E02

    1. Using a dial indicator, measure the propeller shaft and intermediate shaft runout.

      Maximum runout
      Item Specified Condition
      Propeller shaft 0.3 mm (0.012 in.)
      Intermediate shaft 0.5 mm (0.02 in.)

      If the shaft runout is greater than the maximum, replace the shaft.

  3. 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 to 0.05 mm (0 to 0.002 in.)

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

  4. INSPECT CENTER NO. 1 SUPPORT BEARING ASSEMBLY

    A01DZTVE01

    1. When turning the center bearing with your hand, check that it turns smoothly without catching, and that there are no cracks or damage.

      If there are any defects, replace it.

      If there is any damage to the lip of the center bearing case, replace it.

  5. REMOVE UNIVERSAL JOINT SPIDER ASSEMBLY

    A01DYJDE01

    1. Place matchmarks on the flange yoke and shaft.

    2. A01DW4KE01

      Using a brass bar and hammer, slightly tap in the spider bearing outer races.

    3. Using 2 screwdrivers, remove the 4 snap rings from the grooves.

    4. A01DZMCE01

      Clamp the propeller shaft in a vise between aluminum plates.

    5. Using SST, push the sleeve yoke side spider bearing until: 1) the spider almost touches the sleeve yoke or propeller shaft, and 2) the spider bearing on the opposite side is partially pushed out.

      SST
      09332-25010

      Tech Tips

      Before installing SST, sufficiently raise the part labeled A. If part A is too low, SST may be difficult to install.

    6. A01DV4CE01

      Clamp the pushed out spider bearing outer race in a vise and tap the propeller shaft to remove the spider bearing.

      Note

      Do not tap the shaft tube.

      Tech Tips

      Remove the spider bearing from the opposite side of the spider using the same procedure.

    7. Separate the flange yoke and spider from the propeller shaft.

    8. A01E1ASE01

      Reinstall the 2 removed spider bearings to the spider and clamp the spider bearings in a vise.

    9. Using SST, push the flange yoke side spider bearing until: 1) the spider almost touches the flange yoke, and 2) the spider bearing on the opposite side is partially pushed out.

      SST
      09332-25010

      Tech Tips

      Before installing SST, sufficiently raise the part labeled A. If part A is too low, SST may be difficult to install.

    10. A01DZDOE01

      Clamp the pushed out spider bearing outer race in a vise and tap the flange yoke to remove the spider bearing.

      Tech Tips

      Remove the spider bearing from the opposite side of the spider using the same procedure.

    11. Separate the spider from the flange yoke.

      Tech Tips

      Perform the removal of the other universal joint spider(s) using the same procedures.
