4. Separate drive shaft from wheel hub and bearing assembly by lightly tapping the end with a suitable ham- mer and wood block. If it is hard to separate, use a suitable puller.
5. Remove drive shaft from axle. CAUTION:
When removing drive shaft, do not apply an excessive angle to drive shaft joint. Also be careful
not to excessively extend slide joint.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Move joint up/down, left/right, and in the axial direction. Check
for any rough movement or significant looseness.
Check boot for cracks or other damage, and also for grease
leakage.
If a trouble is found, disassemble drive shaft, and then replace
with new one.
INSTALLATION
Refer to RAX-9, "Removal and Installation" for tightening torque. Install in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
Refer to component parts location and do not reuse non-reusable parts.
