On-vehicle Service
PROPELLER SHAFT VIBRATION
If vibration is present at high speed, inspect propeller shaft
runout first.
1. Raise rear end of vehicle until wheels are clear of the ground.
2. Measure propeller shaft runout at several points along pro-
peller shaft by rotating final drive companion flange using
hands.
3. If runout exceeds specifications, disconnect propeller shaft at
final drive companion flange. Rotate companion flange 180
degrees, then reconnect propeller shaft.
Runout limit: 0.6 mm (0.024 in)
4. Check runout again. If runout still exceeds the limit, replace
propeller shaft assembly.
5. Perform road test.
APPEARANCE CHECKING
lInspect propeller shaft tube surface for dents or cracks and
replace as necessary.
lCheck center bearing for noise or damage and replace as
necessary.
Removal and Installation
1. Place matching marks on flanges, then separate propeller
shaft from final drive.
2. Remove propeller shaft.
lInsert plug into rear oil seal after removing rear propel-
ler shaft.
Inspection
lInspect propeller shaft runout. If runout exceeds the limit,
replace propeller shaft assembly.
Runout limit: 0.6 mm (0.024 in)

Disassembly
CENTER BEARING
1. Place matching marks on flanges, then separate 2nd tube
from 1st tube.
2. Place matching marks on the flange and shaft.
3. Remove locking nut using Tool.
