• Inspect the propeller shaft runout. If runout exceeds the limit,

replace the propeller shaft assembly. 

• While holding the flange yoke on one side, check axial play of the joint as shown. If the journal axial play

exceeds the specification, repair or replace the journal parts.

• Check the propeller shaft tube surface for dents or cracks. If dam-

age is detected, replace the propeller shaft assembly.

INSTALLATION

Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

• After installation, check for vibration by driving the vehicle. Refer to 

DLN-184, "NVH Troubleshooting Chart"

.

CAUTION:

Do not reuse the bolts and nuts. Always install new ones.

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.

Journal

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-190,

"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 propeller shaft joint flex effort specification.
