C: CAUTION
Please clearly understand and adhere to the follow-
ing general precautions. They must be strictly fol-
lowed to avoid any injury to the person doing the
work or people in the area.
1. OPERATION
•Wear work clothing, including a cap, protective
goggles and protective shoes during operation.
•Remove contamination including dirt and corro-
sion before removal, installation or disassembly.
•Keep the disassembled parts in order and pro-
tect them from dust and dirt.
•Before removal, installation or disassembly, be
sure to clarify the failure. Avoid unnecessary re-
moval, installation, disassembly and replacement.
•Be careful not to burn yourself, because each
part on the vehicle is hot after running.
•Use SUBARU genuine grease etc. or equivalent.
Do not mix grease etc. with that of another grade or
from other manufacturers.
•Be sure to tighten fasteners including bolts and
nuts to the specified torque.
•Place shop jacks or rigid racks at the specified
points.
• Apply grease onto sliding or revolution surfaces
before installation.
•Before installing snap rings, apply sufficient
amount of grease to avoid damage and deforma-
tion.
•Before securing a part on a vise, place cushion-
ing material such as wood blocks, aluminum plate,
or shop cloth between the part and the vise.
2. OIL
When handling oil, follow the rules below to prevent
unexpected accidents.
•Prepare container and waste cloths when per-
forming work which oil could possibly spill. If oil
spills, wipe it off immediately to prevent from pene-
trating into floor or flowing outside, for environmen-
tal protection.
•Follow all government and local regulations con-
cerning waste disposal.

attach center bearing to body.
Tightening torque:
52 N·m (5.3 kgf-m, 38.3 ft-lb)
2) Align the matching marks and connect the flange
yoke and rear differential.
Tightening torque:
31 N·m (3.2 kgf-m, 23.1 ft-lb)
3) Install the heat shield cover.
4) Install the center exhaust pipe.
5) Install the rear exhaust pipe and muffler.
6) Lower the vehicle.
7) Connect the ground cable to the battery.
C: INSPECTION
NOTE:
Do not disassemble propeller shaft. Check the fol-
lowing and replace if necessary.
•Tube surface for dents of cracks
•Splines for deformation or abnormal wear
•Unsmooth joint operation or abnormal noise
•Center bearing for free play, noise or non-
smooth operation.
•Oil seals for abnormal wear or damage
•Damaged center bearing
Check the following points with propeller shaft in-
stalled in vehicle.
1. JOINTS AND CONNECTIONS
1) Remove the center exhaust pipe.
2) Remove the heat shield cover.
3) Check for any looseness of the yoke flange
mounting bolts which connect to the rear differen-
tial and center bearing bracket mounting bolts.
2. SPLINES AND BEARING
1) Remove the center exhaust pipe.
2) Remove the rear exhaust pipe and muffler.
3) Remove the heat shield cover.
4) Turn the propeller shaft by hand to see if abnor-
mal free play exists at splines. Also move yokes to
see if abnormal free play exists at spiders and
bearings.
