Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
• Align matching mark (A) to install propeller shaft flange yoke and

transfer companion flange.

• Align matching mark (A) to install propeller shaft flange yoke and

front final drive companion flange.

• After assembly, perform a driving test to check propeller shaft

vibration. If vibration occurred, separate propeller shaft from final
drive. Reinstall companion flange after rotating it by 90, 180, 270
degrees. Then perform driving test and check propeller shaft vibra-
tion again at each point.

• If propeller shaft or final drive has been replaced, connect them as

follows:

- Install the propeller shaft while aligning its matching mark (A) with

the matching mark (B) on the joint as close as possible.
