      *a

      Turn

      *b

      Hold

      *c

      Point of engagement with rear suspension member sub-assembly

      *d

      5.0 to 6.0 mm (0.1969 to 0.2362 in.)

      V100136

      Rear of vehicle

      Using SST, install the differential mount cushion.(*1)

      09570-48010

      Note:
      • Before using SST, apply grease to SST bolts.

      • Do not tilt the bolts of SST.

      • Tighten the 2 bolts of SST so that they enter the 2 holes of the rear No. 1 differential mount cushion by an equal amount.

    3. C299409N02

      Using a vernier caliper, measure the distance labeled A in the illustration. (*2)

      Note:
      • Measure at several points to check that the differential mount cushion is uniformly inserted.

      • Measure at points where there is no welding bead.

    4. Repeat steps *1 and *2 above to press the differential mount cushion into the rear suspension member sub-assembly until the distance labeled A in the illustration reaches the reference value.

      Reference

      11 to 12 mm (0.4331 to 0.4724 in.)

    5. Remove SST, and then using a vernier caliper, measure the protrusion (labeled B in the illustration) of the differential mount cushion. Check that the measured value is within the specified range.

      Standard

      5.0 to 6.0 mm (0.1969 to 0.2362 in.)

  5. INSTALL REAR TRACTION MOTOR WITH TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY

    1. Using an engine sling device and chain block, hold the rear traction motor with transaxle assembly.

      CAUTION:

      As the rear traction motor with transaxle assembly is heavy, hold it securely using an engine sling device and chain block.

      Note:
      • Do not drop the rear traction motor with transaxle assembly.

      • Do not damage the installation surface of the rear traction motor with transaxle assembly.
