Installation [12/2013 - 11/2016]: Procedure
- TEMPORARILY TIGHTEN PROPELLER WITH CENTER BEARING SHAFT ASSEMBLY
- Remove SST from the transfer assembly.
- Insert the propeller with center bearing shaft assembly into the transfer assembly.NOTE:
- Be careful not to damage the transfer extension housing type T oil seal.
- Be careful not to damage the universal joint boot when installing the propeller with center bearing shaft assembly.
- Align the matchmarks on the electro magnetic control coupling sub-assembly and propeller with center bearing shaft assembly.
*a Matchmark - Temporarily install the 4 nuts and 4 washers.NOTE:
Do not allow grease to adhere to the 4 bolts, 4 nuts and 4 washers.
- Temporarily install the propeller with center bearing shaft assembly with the 4 bolts, and 4 No. 2 center support bearing washers.NOTE:
- Reuse the No. 2 center support bearing washers.
- Do not allow grease to adhere to the 4 bolts or 4 No. 2 center support bearing washers.
- Fully tighten the 4 nuts.
Torque: 73.5 N*m (749 kgf*cm, 54 ft.*lbf)
- Remove SST from the transfer assembly.
- FULLY TIGHTEN PROPELLER WITH CENTER BEARING SHAFT ASSEMBLY
- Remove the piece of cloth or equivalent from the universal joint flange.
*a Piece of Cloth - Using a 6 mm hexagon socket wrench, fully tighten the 6 cross groove joint set bolts.
Torque: 26 N*m (265 kgf*cm, 19 ft.*lbf)
- With the vehicle unloaded, adjust the distance (A) between the rear side of the cover and shaft as shown in the illustration.
Distance (A)
58 mm (2.28 in.)
- With the vehicle unloaded, adjust the front and rear distance (A) between the edge surface of the No. 2 center support bearing assembly and the edge surface of the cushion respectively as shown in the illustration, and then tighten the bolts.
*a No. 2 Center Support Bearing Assembly (for Front Side) *b No. 2 Center Support Bearing Assembly (for Rear Side) Distance (A)
11.5 to 13.5 mm (0.453 to 0.531 in.)
- Fully tighten the 4 bolts.
Torque: 36.8 N*m (375 kgf*cm, 27 ft.*lbf)
- Check that the center line of the bracket is at a right angle to the shaft axial direction.
- Remove the piece of cloth or equivalent from the universal joint flange.
- INSPECT AND ADJUST TRANSFER OIL
Refer to ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION [12/2013 - ]
- INSPECT AND ADJUST JOINT ANGLE NOTE:
Measure the joint angle when the vehicle is raised using a four-post lift or when using a pit.
HINT:
If any vibration or noise occurs, perform the joint angle check as follows and replace the No. 2 center support bearing washer with a proper one.
- Stabilize the propeller shaft and differential.
- Turn the propeller shaft several times by hand to stabilize the center support bearings.
- Using a jack, raise and lower the differential to stabilize the differential mounting cushion.
- Check the No. 1 and No. 4 joint angles.
*a No. 1 Joint Angle *b No. 4 Joint Angle - Using SST, measure the transfer assembly installation angle (A) and propeller shaft assembly installation angle (B).
- SST: 09370-50010
No. 1 Joint Angle
Measurement Position No. 1 Joint Angle A-B -3.02° to -1.02° - Using SST, measure the rear propeller shaft assembly installation angle (C) and rear differential carrier assembly installation angle (D).
- SST: 09370-50010
No. 4 Joint Angle
Measurement Position No. 4 Joint Angle C-D 0.71° to 2.71° If the measured angle is not within the specified range, adjust it with No. 2 center support bearing washer.
- Using SST, measure the transfer assembly installation angle (A) and propeller shaft assembly installation angle (B).
- Adjust the No. 1 joint angle and No. 4 joint angle.
- Select No. 2 center support bearing washers for adjustment.
No. 2 Center Support Bearing Washer Thickness
Part No. Thickness mm (in.) 90201-10095 3.2 mm (0.126 in.) 90201-10081 4.5 mm (0.177 in.) 90201-10083 6.5 mm (0.256 in.) 90201-10084 9.0 mm (0.354 in.) 90201-10085 11.0 mm (0.433 in.) 90201-10086 13.5 mm (0.531 in.) 90201-10134 15.5 mm (0.610 in.) 90201-10135 17.5 mm (0.689 in.) NOTE:- Make sure to use a No. 2 center support bearing washers of the same thickness on both the right and left sides.
- Do not use 2 or more washers on a bolt.
- Select No. 2 center support bearing washers for adjustment.
- Stabilize the propeller shaft and differential.
- INSTALL NO. 2 ENGINE UNDER COVER
