Driveshaft Installation
NOTE: Before starting installation, make sure the mating surfaces of the joint and the splined section are not dusty or dirty.
1. Apply about 5 g (0.18 oz) moly 60 paste (PIN 08734-0001) to the contact area of the outboard joint and the front wheel bearing.
NOTE: The paste helps to prevent noise and vibration.
2. Install a new set ring onto the set ring groove of the driveshaft.
3. M/T model: Apply 0.5-1.0 g (0.02-0.04 oz) of grease to the whole splined surface (A) of the right driveshaft. After applying grease, remove the
grease from the splined grooves at intervals of 2-3 splines and from the set ring groove (B) so that air can bleed from the intermediate shaft.
4. Clean the areas where the driveshaft contacts the differential thoroughly with solvent or brake cleaner, and dry with compressed air.
NOTE: Do not wash the rubber parts with solvent.
