  1. Remove right rear wheel.
  2. Drain rear-axle oil (see Changing and checking transmission oil in final drive  ).
    NOTE:
    • Suction removal of the oil prevents rear-axle oil entering the ATF.
    • This would cause malfunctions of the hydraulic transmission control system.
  3. Uncouple right drive shaft on the transmission side.
  4. Unscrew three fastening screws for the mounting saddle.
