Apply the parking brake. Raise the vehicle on a jack.
3. Turn the companion flange clockwise as far as it will go.
Make the mating mark on the dust cover of the companion
flange and on the differential carrier.
4. Turn the companion flange anti-clockwise as far as it
will go, and measure the amount of distance the mating
marks moved.
Limit: 6 mm
5. If the backlash exceeds the limit value, replace the
differential carrier assembly.
GEAR OIL LEVEL CHECK

1. Remove the filler plug.
2. Check that the gear oil level is within the specified range
from the bottom end of the filler plug hole.
3. If the gear oil level exceeds the standard value, add the
specified gear oil up to the bottom end of the filler plug
hole.
Specified gear oil:
Hypoid gear oil

3. If the axial play exceeds the limit, the castle nut should
be tightened to the specified torque 225±25 N·m and
check the axial play again.
4. Replace the rear hub assembly if an adjustment cannot
be made to within the limit.
WHEEL BEARING ROTARY-SLIDING
RESISTANCE CHECK
1. Remove the brake caliper and brake disc.
2. After turning the hub a few times to seat the bearing,
wind a rope around the hub bolt and turn the hub by
pulling at a 90_angle with a spring balance. Measure
to determine whether or not the rotary-sliding resistance
of the rear hub is at the limit value.
Limit: 22 N or less

REAR AXLE -On-vehicle Service27B-23
3. If the limit value is exceeded, loosen the flange nut and
then tighten it to the specified torque 225±25 N·m and
check the rear hub rotary sliding resistance again.
4. Replace the rear hub assembly if an adjustment cannot
be made to within the limit.

AC"REAR DRIVE SHAFT ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
1. Use the special tools to push out the drive shaft from
the hub.
2. Remove the drive shaft from the transmission by the
following procedure.
Insert a pry bar between the differential carrier and the
drive shaft, and then pry the drive shaft from the differential
carrier.
Caution
(1) Do not pull on the drive shaft; doing so will damage
the T.J.; be sure to use the pry bar.
(2) When pulling the drive shaft out from the
differential carrier, be careful that the spline part
of the drive shaft does not damage the oil seal.
(3) Do not apply the vehicle weight to the wheel
bearing while loosening the drive shaft nut.
Otherwise wheel bearing will be damaged. If,
however, the vehicle weight must be applied to
the bearing (because of moving the vehicle),
temporarily secure the wheel bearing by using
the special tool.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Caution
1. Before removing the steering wheel and air bag module assembly, always refer to GROUP
52B - Service Precautions, Air bag Module and Clock Spring. Also, set the front wheels so
that they are facing straight forward, and remove the ignition key. If you fail to do this, the
SRS clock spring will be damaged, causing the SRS air bag to be inoperative and serious
injury.
2. *
1: Indicates parts which should be initially tightened, and then fully tightened after placing
