GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The drive shaft joint is a constant velocity joint (C.V. joint) which slides in the axial direction. The joint is composed
of an outer race, cage, inner race and balls. In the turning direction, the joint rotates in the same way as a ball bear-
ing. The balls lock rotation completely and transmit drive. In addition this vehicle is also characterized by a function
that the shaft can slide through the balls in the grooves of the outer race in the extension / contraction direction of
the drive shaft.

DISASSEMBLY
1) Remove boot band of differential side joint.
2) Slide boot toward the center of shaft and remove snap ring from
outer race, then take shaft out of outer race.
3) Remove circlip and then cage.
4) Remove inside and outside boots from shaft.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble wheel side joint (outboard joint). If
any malcondition is found in joint, replace it as assem-
bly.
Do not disassemble ball joint of differential side joint.
If any malcondition is found in ball joint, replace differ-
ential side joint assembly.
INSPECTION
Check boots for breakage or deterioration. Replace them as nec-
essary.
Check circlip, snap ring and boot bands for breakage or deforma-
tion. Replace as necessary.
CLEANING
Wash disassembled parts (except boots) in degreaser. After
washing, dry parts completely by blowing air.
Clean boots with cloth. DO NOT wash boots in degreaser, such
as gasoline or kerosene, etc.
Washing in degreaser causes deterioration of boot.

ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
To prevent any problem caused by washing solution, do
not wash joint boots. Degreasing of those parts with cloth
is allowed.
For M / T vehicle with H25 engine
To ensure full performance of joint as designed, be sure
to distinguish between two types of grease in repair set
and apply specified volume to respective joint. i.e. yellow
grease to wheel side joint and black one to differential
side.
Bend each boot band against forward rotation.
Do not squeeze or distort boot when fastening it with
bands.
Distorted boot caused by squeezing air may reduce its du-
rability.
1) Fully apply joint grease to wheel side joint.
Use joint grease in the tube included in spare part.
2) Fit wheel side boot on shaft.
Fill up inside of boot with joint grease of about 90 gram.
Before fixing boot band, insert screwdriver into boot on joint side
and allow air to enter boot so that air pressure in boot becomes
the same as atmospheric pressure.
3) Fixing boot band.
4) Install boot onto drive shaft till its small diameter side fits to shaft
groove and fix there with boot band.
5) Install cage to shaft.
CAUTION:
Install cage directing smaller outside diameter side to
shaft end.
6) Install circlip by using snap ring plier.
