DISASSEMBLY

Journal

1.

Put matching marks on the front propeller shaft and flange yoke
as shown.

CAUTION:

For matching marks, use paint. Never damage the front pro-
peller shaft or flange yoke.

2.

Remove the snap rings.

3.

Push out and remove the journal bearings by lightly tapping the
flange yoke with a hammer, taking care not to damage the jour-
nal or flange yoke hole.
NOTE:
Put marks on the disassembled parts so that they can be rein-
stalled in their original positions from which they were removed.

4.

Push out and remove the remaining journal bearings at the
opposite side by lightly tapping the flange yoke with a hammer,
taking care not to damage the journal or flange yoke hole.
NOTE:
Put marks on the disassembled parts so that they can be rein-
stalled in their original positions from which they were removed.

1.

Assemble the journal bearings. Apply multipurpose grease on
the bearing inner surface.
NOTE:
During assembly, use caution so that the needle bearings do not
fall down.

2.

Select new snap rings that will provide the specified play in an
axial direction of the journal, and install them. Refer to 

DLN-139,

"Snap Ring"

.

CAUTION:

Do not reuse snap rings
NOTE:
Select snap rings with a difference in thickness at both sides
within 0.02 mm (0.0008 in).

3.

Adjust the thrust clearance between the bearing and snap ring
to zero by tapping the yoke.

4.

Make sure that the journal moves smoothly and is below the
joint flex effort specification. Refer to 

DLN-139, "General Specifi-

cation"

PRECAUTIONS

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT 
PRE-TENSIONER"

INFOID:0000000005590001

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.

WARNING:

• To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in

the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

• Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal

injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.

• Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this

Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.

PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS

WARNING:

• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-

tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor(s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.

• When using air or electric power tools or hammers, always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the

battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before performing any service.
