(e) Install the 6 hexagon bolts and washer from the end cover side.

(h) Check that the claw of the end cover touches the inboard joint.
8. CHECK DRIVE SHAFT
Check that operation of the joint is smooth within the sliding region in the axial direction.
HINT: If a large angle is used for the cross–groove type joint, the joint will feel like it is catching, but this does not indicate an abnormality.
