PROPELLER SHAFT – PROPELLER SHAFT
JOINT ANGLE INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
NOTICE: When doing operations which involve the removal and installation of the propeller shaft, always check the joint. Make adjustments if necessary.
1. STABILIZE PROPELLER SHAFT AND DIFFERENTIAL
(a) Turn the propeller shaft several times by hand to stabilize the center support bearing and flexible couplings.
(b) Using a jack, raise and lower the differential to stabilize the differential mounting cushion.
2. CHECK JOINT ANGLE OF NO.2 JOINT AND NO.3 JOINT
(a) Using SST, measure the installation angle of the intermediate shaft and propeller shaft.
SST 09370–50010
HINT: The SST should be directly underneath the tube.
(b) Using SST, measure the installation angle of the differential.
SST 09370–50010
HINT: Measure the installation angle by placing the SST in the position, as shown in the illustration.
