Wheel
REMOVAL
1) Loosen wheel nuts by approximately 180° (half a rotation).
2) Hoist vehicle.
3) Remove wheel.
INSTALLATION
Wheel nuts must be tightened in sequence and to proper torque
to avoid bending wheel or brake drum or disc as shown.
Tightening order
: “A”–“B”–“C”–“D”–“E”
Tightening torque
Wheel nuts
(a) : 95 N·m (9.5 kg-m, 69.0 lb-ft) CAUTION:
Never use heat to loosen tight wheel because application
of heat to wheel can shorten life of wheel and damage
wheel bearings.
NOTE:
Before installing wheels, remove any build-up of corro-
sion on wheel mounting surface and brake drum or disc
mounting surface by scraping and wire brushing. Install-
ing wheels without good metal-to-metal contact at
mounting surfaces can cause wheel nuts to loosen,
which can later allow wheel to come off while vehicle is
moving.

Tire
Mounting and demounting
Use tire changing machine to mount or demount tires. Follow equipment manufacturer’s instructions. Do not use
hand tools or tire irons alone to change tires as they may damage tire beads or wheel rim.
Rim bead seats should be cleaned with wire brush or coarse steel wool to remove lubricants, old rubber and
light rust. Before mounting or demounting tire, bead area should be well lubricated with approved tire lubricant.
After mounting, inflate to 240 kPa (35 psi) so that beads are completely seated. Then adjust pressure to speci-
fied shown on tire placard.
Install valve core and inflate to proper pressure.
Repair
There are many different materials and techniques on the market to repair tires. As not all of these work on all
types of tires, tire manufacturers have published detailed instructions on how and when to repair tires. These
instructions can be obtained from the tire manufacturer.WARNING:
Do not stand over tire when inflating. Bead may break when bead snaps over rim’s safety hump and
cause serious personal injury.
Do not exceed 240 kPa (35 psi) pressure when inflating. If 240 kPa (35 psi) pressure will not seat
beads, deflate, re-lubricate and reinflate. Over inflation may cause bead to break and cause serious
personal injury.

NOTE:
All propeller shaft fasteners are an important attaching part in that it could affect the performance
of vital parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with
one of the same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not
use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as speci-
fied during reassembly to assure proper retention of this part.
Never attempt to heat, quench or straighten any propeller shaft part. Replace it with a new part, or
damage to the part may result.

Propeller Shaft Joint Check
If universal joints are suspected of producing chattering or rattling
noise, inspect them for wear. Check to see if cross spider rattles
in yokes or if splines are worn down and replace defective propel-
ler shaft with new one.
Noise coming from universal joint can be easily distinguished
from other noises because rhythm of chattering or rattling is in
step with cruising speed. Noise is pronounced particularly on
standing start or in coasting condition (when braking effect of
engine is showing in the drive line).
1. Propeller shaft No.1
2. Propeller shaft No.2
3. Propeller shaft No.3

Condition Possible Cause Correction
Abnormal noise

On-Vehicle Service
Propeller Shafts
REMOVAL
1) Hoist vehicle.
2) Drain transmission oil only when servicing propeller shaft
No. 1.
3) Before removing propeller shaft (2), give match marks (1) on
each joint flange (3) and propeller shaft (2) as shown.
4) Remove propeller shaft(s).
INSPECTION
Inspect propeller shaft and flange yoke for damage, and propeller
shaft for runout.
If damage is found or shaft runout exceeds its limit, replace.
Propeller shaft runout limit : 0.8 mm (0.031 in.)

INSTALLATION
Install propeller shaft(s) reversing removal procedure noting fol-
lowing points :
When installing propeller shaft, align the match marks.
Otherwise, vibration may occur during driving.
Use following specification to torque universal joint flange.

Match marks (1) are provided on slip-on spline connections
of propeller shaft No. 2 and No. 3. Inserting splined end into
spIined bore without regard to match marks can be a possi-
ble cause of noise or vibration of propeller shaft. Be sure to
index marks. NOTE:
If transmission oil was drained for front propeller shaft
removal, pour specified gear oil into transmission case
to specified level.
