TRANSAXLE OIL
Inspection
1. Park the vehicle on level ground.
2. Remove the speedometer cable dust cover, and
disconnect the cable from the speedometer driv-
en gear.
3. After removing the bolt, pull the gear case to re-
move
it
from the housing. (Insert a flat-tipped screw-
driver between the speedometer gear case and
the clutch housing, and use
it
to pry the gear case
loose if necessary.)
4. Check that the oil level is between the "F" and "L".
5. If not, add the necessary amount of the specified
oil through the gear case hole.
Replacement
1. Park the vehicle on level ground.
2. Remove the speedometer driven gear.
(See "Inspection" section above.)
3. Remove the drain plug, and drain the oil.
4. Replace the drain plug, and add the necessary
amount of the specified oil through the speedom-
eter gear case hole.

DRIVESHAFT OIL SEALS
Replacement
Jack up the vehicle, support it on safety stands, and
then drain the transaxle oil. Next, use the following

4 Remove the bolt and pull the lower arm downward.
Separate the knuckle from the lower arm ball-joint.
Note
Be careful not to damage the ball-joint dust
boot.
Remove the cotter pin then disconnect the tie-rod
end with the SST.

6. Separate the driveshaft by pulling the front hub out-
ward. Do not use too much force at once, increase
the force gradually.
Note
a) Do not to allow the driveshaft ball-joint to
be bent to its maximum extent.
b) Support the driveshaft using string, wire,
etc.

8. Tap the new oil seal into the transaxle case with
the SST.
Note
a) Tap in until the oil seal installer contacts the
case.
b)Coat the oil seal lip with transaxle oil.
9. Replace the driveshaft end clip with a new one.
Insert the clip with the gap at the top of the groove.
10. Install the driveshaft as follows:
(1) Pull the front hub outward, then
fit
the driveshaft
into the transaxle.
(2) Insert the driveshaft into the transaxle by push-
ing on the wheel hub assembly.
Note
a) Be careful not to damage the oil seal.
b) After installation is finished, pull the front
hub slowly outward to check that the
driveshaft is held securely by the clip.
11. Install the lower arm ball-joint to the knuckle, and
tighten the clinch bolt.
