	Remove
1	Remove center and rear section of lower engine compartment paneling	Model 213	AR61.20-P-1105LWE
1		Model 238 Model 205 Model 253 The articulation angle measurement must be performed on a measurement lift/pit. Otherwise the measurement results will be false.	AR61.20-P-1105LW
2	Prepare articulation angle meter		AR41.10-P-0086-02LW

3	Check inclinometer and adjust if necessary	See operating instructions for the inclinometer.
4	Measure angle at transmission		AR41.10-P-0085-01LW
5	Measure angle on front and rear half of propeller shaft		AR41.10-P-0085-02LW
6	Measure angle on housing of rear axle differential		AR41.10-P-0085-03LW
6	Measure angle on housing of rear axle differential	Model 205, 213, 253 with code 990 (AMG vehicles) Bolt, heat sink to end cover	*BA35.31-P-1004-02H
7	Read out all articulation angles (∠1, ∠ 2, ∠ 3) from memory of articulation angle meter and note down		AR41.10-P-0086-01LW

		Front inclination angle of transmission relative to front propeller shaft (∠1)	*BE41.10-P-1001-01G
		Inclination angle of front propeller shaft relative to rear propeller shaft (∠2)	*BE41.10-P-1002-01G
		Rear inclination angle of rear propeller shaft relative to rear axle differential (∠3)	*BE41.10-P-1003-01G
		If inclination angles (∠ 1, ∠2, ∠ 3) are out ol tolerance. ↓ Correct the articulation angles of the propeller shaft. Model 205	AR41.10-P-0090LW
