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.

  SST 09370-50010
  
  HINT:
  
  Measure the installation angle by placing the SST in the position shown in the illustration.
3. Calculate the No. 2 joint angle.
  No. 2 joint angle:
  
  A - B = 0°16' to 1°16'
  
  A:
  
  Intermediate shaft installation angle
  
  B:
  
  Propeller shaft installation angle
4. Calculate the No. 3 joint angle.
  No. 3 joint angle:
  
  B - C = 0°55' to 1°55'
  
  B:
  
  Propeller shaft installation angle
  
  C:
  
  Differential installation angle
  
  HINT:
  
  If the measured angle is not within the specified range, adjust it with the center support bearing washers.

Adjust the No. 2 joint angle.

Select the center support bearing washers for adjustment.
