Check drive shaft mounting point and joint for looseness and other damage.

Check boot for cracks and other damage.
CAUTION:
Replace entire drive shaft assembly when noise or vibration occur from drive shaft.
DRIVE SHAFT BOOT REPLACEMENT
1. Remove tires from vehicle.
2. Remove wheel sensor from steering knuckle. Refer to BRC-33, "
WHEEL SENSORS" .
CAUTION:
Do not pull on wheel sensor harness.
3. Remove torque member fixing bolts. Hang torque member in a place where it will not interfere with work.
Refer to BR-26, "
FRONT DISC BRAKE" .
NOTE:
Do not depress brake pedal while brake caliper is removed.
4. Remove disc rotor. Refer to FA X - 5 , "
Removal and Installation" .
5. Remove cotter pin, then loosen hub lock nut.
6. Separate wheel hub and bearing assembly from drive shaft by
lightly tapping the end with hammer (suitable tool) and a wood
block, and then remove hub lock nut.
CAUTION:

Do not place drive shaft joint at an extreme angle. Also be
careful not to overextend slide joint.

Do not allow drive shaft to hang down without support for
housing (or joint sub-assembly), shaft and the other
parts.
NOTE:
Use a puller (suitable tool) if wheel hub and drive shaft cannot
be separated even after performing the above procedure.
7. Remove fixing nuts and bolts, and then remove steering knuckle
from strut assembly. Refer to FSU-7, "
Components" .
8. Remove drive shaft from wheel hub and bearing assembly.
9. Remove boot bands, and then remove boot from joint sub-
assembly.
10. Screw a drive shaft puller (suitable tool) into joint sub-assembly
screw part to a length of 30 mm (1.18 in) or more. Support drive
shaft with one hand and pull out joint sub-assembly with a slid-
ing hammer (suitable tool) from shaft.
CAUTION:

Align a sliding hammer and drive shaft and remove them
by pulling firmly and uniformly.

If joint sub-assembly cannot be pulled out, try after
removing drive shaft from vehicle.

7. Disconnect fuel filler hose and vent hose at the position shown
in the figure.
8. Disconnect EVAP hose at EVAP canister side.
9. Support the lower part of fuel tank with transmission jack.
CAUTION:

Support right and left part of flat bottom plate with pass-
ing board.

Because the height of right and left bottom plate is differ-
ent, horizontally support them with wood plate and things
like that.

Support the position that fuel tank mounting bands do
not engage.
10. Remove fuel tank mounting bands.
11. Supporting with hands, descend transmission jack carefully, and remove fuel tank.
CAUTION:

Make sure that all connection points have been disconnected.

Confirm there is no interference with vehicle.
12. Remove fuel filler tube, if necessary.
INSTALLATION
Note to the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.

Surely clamp fuel hoses and insert hose to the length below.

Be sure hose clamp is not placed on swelled area of fuel tube.

Tighten fuel hose clamp so that the distance between its lugs becomes to the following.

Before fixing fuel tank, temporarily install fuel filler tube.
CAUTION:
Use genuine fuel filler tube mounting bolts or equivalent. Make sure to tighten them to the speci-
fied torque.

To connect quick connector, refer to FL-7, "Quick Connector" .
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Use the following procedure to check for fuel leaks.
1. Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped), and check connections for leakage by applying fuel pres-
sure to fuel piping.
2. Start engine and rev it up and make sure there are no fuel leaks at the fuel system tube and hose connec-
tions.
