DRAINING
1. Stop engine.
2. Remove drain plug and drain gear oil.
3. Set a gasket on drain plug and install it to final drive assembly
and tighten to the specified torque. Refer to RFD-19, "

NENTS" (R200 2-pinion) or RFD-39, "COMPONENTS" (R200V
LSD).
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
FILLING
1. Remove filler plug. Fill with new gear oil until oil level reaches
the specified level near filler plug mounting hole.
2. After refilling oil, check oil level. Set a gasket to filler plug, then
install it to final drive assembly. Refer to RFD-19, "
COMPO-
NENTS" (R200 2-pinion) or RFD-39, "COMPONENTS" (R200V
LSD).
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.

Check oil level from filler plug mounting hole as shown in the fig-
ure.
CAUTION:
Do not start engine while checking oil level.
Set a gasket on filler plug and install it on final drive assembly.
Refer to RFD-19, "
COMPONENTS" (R200 2-pinion) or RFD-39,

c. Put a suitable drift on the center of side flange, then drive it until
sound changes.
NOTE:
When installation is completed, driving sound of the side flange
turns into a sound which seems to affect the whole final drive.
d. Confirm that the dimension of the side flange installation (Mea-
surement A) in the figure comes into the following.
9. Install drive shaft. Refer to RAX-10, "
Removal and Installation" .
10. Install rear wheel sensor. Refer to BRC-34, "
WHEEL SEN-
SORS" (ABS), BRC-73, "WHEEL SENSORS" (TCS/ABS) or
BRC-128, "
WHEEL SENSORS" (VDC/TCS/ABS).
11. Refill gear oil to the final drive and check oil level. Refer to RFD-
9, "FILLING" .
12. Check the final drive for oil leakage. Refer to RFD-9, "
