in figure.
3) Remove 4 bolts from rear propeller shaft flange and remove pro-
peller shaft.
4) Using screwdriver, remove oil seal.
5) Using special tool(A) and plastic hammer, pressfit new oil seal

(A): 09940-53111
6) Clean and inspect sliding portion of propeller shaft front end
(where oil seal contacts) before installation and if even small
dent or scratch exists, correct and clean it again.
Then apply grease inside splines of propeller shaft.
ªBº: Grease 99000-25010
7) Install propeller shaft and torque universal joint flange bolts to
specification.

DIFFERENTIAL (FRONT) 7E-1
The differential assembly using a hypoid bevel pinion
and gear is installed to the front axle.
4WD control system controls drive force to be trans-
mitted to front axles or not. The reduction ratio varies
depending on transmission or engine type.The differential assembly is decisive in that the drive
power is concentrated there. Therefore, use of genu-
ine parts and specified torque is compulsory. Further,
because of sliding tooth meshing with high pressure
between bevel pinion and gear, it is mandatory to lu-
bricate them by hypoid gear oil.

MAINTENANCE SERVICE
NOTE:

When having driven through water, check immediately if wa-
ter has entered (if so, oil is cloudy). Water mixed oil must be
changed at once.

Whenever vehicle is hoisted for any other service work than
oil change, also be sure to check for oil leakage and status
of breather hoses.
Gear Oil Change
NOTE:

Hypoid gear oil must be used for differential.

It is highly recommended to use SAE 80W ± 90 viscosity.
1) Before oil change or inspection, be sure to stop engine and lift
up vehicle horizontally.
2) Check oil level and existence of leakage. If leakage is found, cor-
rect its cause.
3) Drain old oil and pour proper amount of gear oil as specified be-
low (roughly up to level hole).
4) Apply sealant to thread of drain plug (b) and torque plugs to
specification.

INSPECTION
4WD Control System
1) Install special tool to air hose connecting between air pump as-
sembly and differential (actuator) as shown in figure. Tighten ad-
justing screw of special tool as far as it stops. Close air check
side opening by using fuel hose as blind plug.
Special Tool
(A): 09918-18110
(B): 09367-04002
NOTE:
Use care not to bend any part of hose.
2) Turn ON ignition switch and shift transfer lever from 2H to 4H
range.
3) Check that motor starts running (a sound can be heard) within
1 second and it stops when gauge of special tool indicates speci-
fied pressure value.
Check also for air leakage.
Pressure specification:
30.0 ± 45.0 kPa (0.30 ± 0.45 kg / cm
2, 4.25 ± 6.40 psi)
4) Check that pressure value indicated on gauge of special tool
drops as soon as transfer lever is shifted to 2H position.
5) Start motor by shifting transfer lever to 4H position again. Loos-
en adjusting screw to lower pressure value on gauge. Motor
should start to run again and stop in about 4 seconds.
6) With the adjusting screw of special tool loosened, shift transfer
shift lever to N or 2H position and then 4L or 4H position.
Pump motor should stop about 10 seconds after motor starts to
run.
