INSPECTION
1. INSPECT CENTER SUPPORT BEARING
(a) Check if the bearing turns smoothly.
(b) Check for crack in or damage to the cushion.
If the center support bearing is damaged, worn or does not turn
smoothly, replace it.
2. INSPECT FLEXIBLE COUPLINGS
Check for cracks in or damage to rear flexible couplings.
If the flexible coupling is damaged, replace the propeller shaft
assembly.
3. INSPECT FLEXIBLE COUPLING CENTERING BEAR-
ING
Check for damage to the bushing.
If the bushing is damaged, replace the propeller shaft assem-
bly.
4. INSPECT RUNOUT OF INTERMEDIATE SHAFT AND
PROPELLER SHAFT
Maximum runout: 0.8 mm (0.031 in.)
If the runout is greater than the maximum, replace the propeller
shaft assembly.
5. INSPECT SPIDER BEARING
(a) Check if the spider bearing rotates smoothly.
