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.

8) Remove solenoid valve No.1 (shift solenoid valve A and B) or so-
lenoid valve No.2 (TCC solenoid valve).
OPERATION CHECK
Whenever shift solenoid valves and TCC (lock-up) solenoid valve
are removed from transmission, verify their valve function physical-
ly before they are reinstalled.
1) Apply oiler to solenoid valve and give compression by hands
and then check to be sure that transmission fluid from oiler does
not come out of holes in solenoid valve when battery voltage is
not conducted.
2) Under the same conditions as above, conduct battery voltage
and then make sure that fluid comes out with vigor.
NOTE:

If fluid does not come out with vigor in above step 2 in-
spection, do not re-use that solenoid valve.

Figure at the left shows shift solenoid valve check.
Check TCC solenoid valve also in the same way.
