REAR AXLE TOTAL BACKLASH CHECK
N03FAAF
If the vehicle vibrates and produces a booming sound due to animbalance of the driving system, measure the rear axle total
backlash by the following procedures to see if the differential
carrier assembly required removal.
(1) Place the gearshift lever in the neutral position, apply the
parking brake and jack up the vehicle.
(2) Manually turn the propeller shaft clockwise as far as it will
go and make mating marks on the companion flange dust
cover and the differential carrier.
(3) Manually turn the propeller shaft counterclockwise as far as
it will go and measure the movement of the mating marks.Limit: 5 mm
(.2 in.)
(4) If the backlash exceeds the limit, remove the differential
carrier assembly and adjust the backlash. (Refer to P.3-20.)
GEAR OIL LEVEL CHECKN03FCAA1. Remove the filler plug, and check the oil level.
2. The oil level is sufficient if it reaches the filler plug hole.

CHECKN03FEAE
(1) Support the vehicle on axle stands positioned at the
specified locations and remove the rear wheel.
(2) Separate the parking brake cable from the rear brake.
(3) Remove the caliper assembly and brake disc.
(4) Place a dial gauge as shown in the figure, and then
measure the play when the axle shaft is moved in the axial
direction.Limit: 0.8 mm
(.031 in.)
(5) If the play exceeds the limit, check the tightening torque of
the companion flange of the axle shaft; if it is correct,
replace the wheel bearing.

IncorrectREAR WHEEL BEARING ROTATION SLIDING
RESISTANCE CHECKNOOFJAA
(1) Remove the drive shaft from the companion flange.
(2) Remove the brake pad or caliper assembly.
(3) Attach a spring balance to the hub bolt, then, pulling the
balance at a right angle to the hub bolt, measure the
rotation sliding resistance (rotation starting torque) to see
whether it is within the standard value.
Standard value: 12
N (2.6 Ibs.) [rotation starting tor-
que 0.7 Nm (6 in
Ibs.)] or less
(4) If the rotation starting torque exceeds the standard value,
check the tightening torque of the axle shaft companion
flange. If it is normal, replace the bearing.
LIMITED-SLIP DIFFERENTIAL CHECKNOJFIAA(1) Block the front wheels and move the shift lever to neutral.
(2) Completely release the parking brake.
(3) Jack up the rear wheels and place a rigid rack at the
specified part of the side sill.
(4) Disconnect the coupling of the differential and propeller
shaft.(5) When one wheel is slowly rotated, check whether or not
the wheel on the other side turns in the same direction.
(6) If it turns in the opposite direction, replace the viscous unit.

_ CAUTION
When servicing brake assemblies or components, do not create dust by sanding, grinding or by cleaning
brake parts with a dry brush or with compressed air. A WATER DAMPENED CLOTH SHOULD BE USED.
Many brake components contain asbestos fibers which can become air-borne if dust is created duringservice operations. Breathing dust which contains asbestos fibers can cause serious bodily harm.

FRONT DISC BRAKE PAD CHECK AND REPLACE-
MENiNWFOAF
NOTE
The brake pads have wear indicators that contact the brake discd’when the brake pad thickness becomes 2 mm
(.08 in.), and
emit a squealing sound to warn the driver.
1. Check brake pad thickness through caliper body check
port.Limit: 2.0 mm
(.08 in.)
Caution1. When the limit is exceeded, replace the pads at
both sides, and also the brake pads for the wheelson the opposite side at the same time.
2.If there is a significant difference in the thicknesses
of the pads on the left and right sides, check the
sliding condition of the piston, lock pin sleeve and
guide pin sleeve.
2.Remove lock or guide pin. Lift caliper assembly and retain
with wires.
Caution
Do not wipe off the special grease that is on the guide
-pin or allow it to contaminate the guide pin.

MAIN BEARINGS AND CONNECTING ROD BEARINGSVisually inspect each bearing for peeling, melt, seizure and
improper contact. Replace the faulty bearings.
OIL CLEARANCE MEASUREMENTTo check the oil clearance, measure the outside diameter of
crankshaft journal and crank pin and the inside diameter of
bearing. The clearance can be obtained by calculating the
difference between the measured outside and inside dia-
meters.
Oil clearance:
Crankshaft main bearing
0.02-0.05 mm (.OOOS-.0019 in.)
Connecting rod bearing
0.02-0.05 mm (.OOOS-.0019 in.)
Limit:
Crankshaft main bearing0.1 mm (.004 in.)
Connecting rod bearing0.1 mm (.004 in.)
PLASTIC-GAUGE METHODPlastic-Gauge may be used to measure the clearance.
(1)Remove oil and grease and any other dirt from bearings and
journals.(2) Cut Plastic-Gauge to the same length as the width of the
bearing and place it in parallel with the journal, off oil holes.(3) Install the crankshaft, bearings and caps and tighten them
to the specified torques. During this operation, do NOT turn
the crankshaft. Remove the caps. Measure the width of the
Plastic-Gauge at the widest part by using
a scale printed onthe Plastic-Gauge sleeve.
If the clearance exceeds the limit, the bearing should be
replaced or an undersize bearing used.
When installing a new crankshaft, be sure to use standard
size bearings.Should the standard clearance not be obtained even after
bearing replacement, the journal should be ground to
undersize and a bearing of the same size should be
installed.
OIL SEALCheck front and rear oil seals for damage or worn lips.
Replace any seat that is faulty.

I1 EN067-(2) Measure the journal O.D. and main bearing I.D. to obtain
the clearance between the two (oil clearance). If the
clearance exceeds the limit, replace the main bearing and,if necessary, the crankshaft.
Standard value:
0.02-0.05 mm (.OOOS-.0020 in.)
Limit: 0.1 mm
(.0040 in.)
Caution
A special
surface treatment has been applied to
crankshaft. Do not machine it to undersize.
CRANKSHAFT OIL CLEARANCE (PLASTIC GAUGE
METHOD)
The crankshaft oil clearance can be measured easily by using aplastic gauge, as follows:
(1) Remove oil and grease and any other foreign matters from
crankshaft journal and bearing inner surface.
(2) Install the crankshaft.
(3) Cut the plastic gauge to the same length as the width of
bearing and place it on journal in parallel with its axis.
(4) Gently place the crankshaft bearing cap over it and tighten
the bolts to the specified torque.
(5) Remove the bolts and gently remove the crankshaft
bearing cap.(6) Measure the width of the smashed plastic gauge at its
widest section by using a scale printed on the plastic gauge
bag.
