INSPECT AND ADJUST NO. 2 AND NO. 3 JOINT ANGLE (for 3UZ-FE)

Stabilize the propeller shaft and differential.
1. Turn the propeller shaft several times by hand to stabilize the center support bearing.
Check the No. 2 and No. 3 joint angles.
1. Using SST, measure the installation angle of the intermediate shaft and propeller shaft.
  SST 09370-50010
  
  HINT:
  
  The SST should be set directly underneath the shaft.
2. Using SST, measure the installation angle of the differential.
