Electric Controlled Coupling: Assembly
- Using the drift (A) [SST: ST35271000 (J-26091)], install center oil seal (1) as shown in the figure.
D : 0.8 - 1.2 mm (0.031 - 0.047 in)
CAUTION:- Never reuse oil seal.
- When installing, never incline oil seal.
- Apply multi-purpose grease onto oil seal lips, and gear oil onto the circumference of oil seal.
- Connect AWD solenoid harness to electric controlled coupling.
- Install electric controlled coupling to spline of drive pinion inside gear carrier.CAUTION:
- Align the pin on electric controlled coupling with the groove of gear carrier.
- Be careful not to damage center oil seal.
- Set AWD solenoid harness guide to gear carrier.
- Using the drifts, drive front oil seal until it becomes flush with the coupling cover end.
CAUTION:
- Never reuse oil seal.
- When installing, never incline oil seal.
- Apply multi-purpose grease onto oil seal lips, and gear oil onto the circumference of oil seal.
- Apply liquid gasket to mating surface of coupling cover. Overlap both ends of the bead for at least 3 mm (0.12 in).
Use Genuine Silicone RTV or equivalent. Refer to "RECOMMENDED CHEMICAL PRODUCTS AND SEALANTS ".
CAUTION: Remove old gasket adhering to the mounting surfaces. Also remove any moisture, oil, or foreign material adhering to the mounting surfaces. - Install coupling cover to gear carrier with arrow facing upward, temporarily tighten reamer bolts to the positions shown in the figure.
- Tighten reamer bolts and coupling cover mounting bolts to the specified torque.
- Install connector bracket, and tighten bolts to the specified torque.
- Install companion flange.NOTE: When reusing electric controlled coupling, align the matching mark of electric controlled coupling with the matching mark of companion flange, then install companion flange.
- Install companion flange lock nut with flange wrench (commercial service tool), tighten to the specified torque.CAUTION: Never reuse companion flange lock nut.
- Check companion flange runout. Refer to "ADJUSTMENT ".
