NOTE: Before starting installation, make sure the
mating surfaces of the joint and the splined section are
clean.
1. Apply about 5 g (0.18 oz) moly 60 paste (P/N 08734-0001) to the contact area (A) of the
outboard joint and the front wheel bearing.
NOTE: The paste helps to prevent noise and
vibration.
2. Install a new set ring (A) onto the set ring groove (B) of the driveshaft (left driveshaft). 3. Install a new set ring (A) onto the set ring groove
(B) of the intermediate shaft.
4. Apply super high temp urea grease (P/N 08798-9002) to the whole splined surface (A) of
the right driveshaft. After applying grease, remove
the grease from the splined grooves at intervals of
2 3 splines and from the set ring groove (B) so
that air can bleed from the intermediate shaft.

SRS components are located in this area. Review the
SRS component locations (see page 24-11) and the
precautions and procedures (see page 24-13) before
doing repairs or service.
1. Do the battery terminal disconnection procedure (see page 22-68).
2. Align the front wheels straight ahead, then remove the driver’s airbag from the steering wheel
(see page 24-188).
3. Disconnect the cable reel subharness connector (A).
4. Loosen the steering wheel bolt (B). 5. Install a commercially available steering wheel
puller (A) on the steering wheel (B). Free the
steering wheel from the steering column shaft by
turning the pressure bolt (C) of the puller.
Note these items when removing the steering
wheel: Do not tap on the steering wheel or the steering column shaft when removing the steering wheel.
 If you thread the puller bolts (D) into the wheel hub more than five threads, the bolts will hit the
cable reel and damage it. To prevent this, install
a pair of jam nuts five threads up on each puller
bolt.
6. Remove the steering wheel puller, then remove the steering wheel bolt and steering wheel from the
steering column.
