2. Remove the boot bands, then remove the boot from the joint sub-assembly.
3. Screw a suitable drive shaft puller 30 mm (1.18 in) or more into the threaded part of the joint sub-assembly. Pull the joint sub-
assembly out of the drive shaft as shown.
CAUTION:
• If the joint sub-assembly cannot be removed after five ormore attempts, replace the drive shaft and joint sub-
assembly as a set.
• Align the sliding hammer and drive shaft and remove the
joint sub-assembly by pulling directly.
4. Remove the boot from the drive shaft.
5. Remove the circlip from the drive shaft.
6. While rotating the ball cage, remove any old grease on the joint sub-assembly using paper towels.
INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Drive Shaft
• Replace the drive shaft if there is any runout, cracking, or other damage.
Joint Sub-assembly
• Check for any rough rotation or unusual axial looseness.
• Clean any foreign material from inside the joint sub-assembly.
• Check for any compression scars, cracks, or fractures.
CAUTION:
If any defective conditions are found in the joint sub-assembly comp onents, replace the entire joint
sub-assembly.
Sliding Joint Side (Housing)
• Check for any compression scars, cracks, fracture s, or unusual wear on the ball rolling surface.
• Check for any damage to the drive shaft screws.
• Check for any deformation of the boot installation components.

REAR SUSPENSION MEMBER
• When raising the rear suspension member assembly, use thelocating pins to align the rear suspension member to the vehicle
body.
• When installing the upper and lower rubber seats for the rear coil springs, the arrow embossed on the rubber seats must point out
toward the wheel and tire assembly.
• To connect the rear load leveling air suspension hoses, the lock ring must be fully seated in the fitt ing. Insert the hose “B” into the
lock ring “A” until the lock ring “A” is touching the hose “B” as
shown. Pull on the hose to check that it is securely inserted.
• Perform the final tightening of the nuts and bolts for the links (rubber bushing) under unladen condition (unladen condition means that the fuel tank, engine cool ant and lubricants are at the full specification, and
the spare tire, jack, hand tools, and mats are in t heir designated positions) with the tires on level ground.
• Check the wheel alignment. Refer to RSU-6, "
Wheel Alignment Inspection" .

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000004894350
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and w hether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inopera tive, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including in correct removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipmen t on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harn esses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electri c power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor( s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers , always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the
battery, and wait at least 3 minu tes before performing any service.
Precaution for SRS "AIR BAG" and "S EAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER" Service
INFOID:0000000001602214
• Do not use electrical test equipment to check SRS ci rcuits unless instructed to in this Service Manual.
• Before servicing the SRS, turn ignition switch OFF, disconnect both battery terminals and wait at least 3 min- utes.
For approximately 3 minutes after the terminals are remov ed, it is still possible for the air bags and seat belt
pre-tensioners to deploy. Therefore, do not work on any SRS connectors or wires until at least 3 minutes
have passed.
• The air bag diagnosis sensor unit must always be installed with the arrow mark “ ⇐” pointing toward the front
of the vehicle for proper operation. Also check air bag diagnosis sensor unit for cracks, deformities or rust
before installation and replace as required.
• The spiral cable must be aligned with the neutral position since its rotations are limited. Do not attempt to
turn steering wheel or column after removal of steering gear.
• Handle air bag module carefully. Always place driver and front passenger air bag modules with the pad side facing upward and seat mounted front side air bag module standing with the stud bolt side facing down.
• Conduct self-diagnosis to check entire SRS for proper function after replacing any components.
• After air bag inflates, the front instrument panel assembly should be replaced if damaged.

SPIRAL CABLE
4. While pressing tabs, pull lighting and turn signal switch towarddriver door and disconnect from base.
5. Remove the screws, release the clip, and remove the spiral cable.
CAUTION:
• Do not disassemble spiral cable.
• Do not apply lubricant to the spiral cable.
6. Remove the spiral cable connectors. CAUTION:
With the steering linkage di sconnected, the spiral cable
may snap by turning the steer ing wheel beyond the limited
number of turns. The spiral cable can be turned counter-
clockwise about 2.5 turns fr om the neutral position.
7. Remove steering angle sensor.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• Align spiral cable correctly when installing steering wheel. Make sure that the spiral cable is in the neutral position. The neutral
position is detected by turning left 2.5 revolutions from the right
end position and ending with the knob at the top.
• Refer to BRC-8, "
ADJUSTMENT OF STEERING ANGLE SEN-
SOR NEUTRAL POSITION : Special Repair Requirement" for
steering angle sensor adjustment.
• After the work is completed, perform self-diagnosis to make sure no malfunction is detected. Refer to SRC-13, "
SRS Operation
Check".
