198 RII AND 215 RII AXLES
NOTE: Halfshaft inner and outer boots are not serviceable separately. Boot replacement requires entire shaft assembly replacement.
CAUTION: Unequal-length halfshafts are used. The right halfshaft is shorter than the left, and it is necessary to identify and tag halfshafts
upon removal to ensure proper installation.
CAUTION: Never grasp halfshaft assembly by the inner or outer boots. Doing so may cause the boot to pucker or crease, reducing the service
life of the boot and joint. Avoid over angulating or stroking the C/V joints when handling the halfshaft.
1. Install new axle seals(1) using Installer 9223 (2).
2. Install halfshaft isolation washer (1). Washer is bi-directional, and can be installed in either direction.
