Drive Pinion Shaft Assembly: Disassembly

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
NOTE:
  • Attach a cloth to the end of driven shaft (on the frictional side of the thrust needle bearing) to prevent damage during disassembly or reassembly.
  • When replacing the coupling sleeve and synchronizer hub, replace them as a set. Because these must engage at the specified point, avoid disassembly as much as possible. If it is necessary to disassemble, mark the engaging points on the splines beforehand.
