6. <For RJ boot>
Place the RJ boot band (small) against the projection at the edge of the boot, and then secure it so that there is a clearance left as shown by (A) in
the illustration.
<For BJ boot>
Position the BJ boot band (small) so that there are even clearance at either end (B and C).
CAUTION:
^
Secure the driveshaft in an upright position and clamp part of the boot band to be crimped securely in the jaws of the special tool MB991561.
^
Crimp the boot band until the special tool MB991561 touches the stopper.
7. Use the special MB991561 tool to crimp the boot band (small)
8. Check that the crimping amount (D) of the boot band is at the standard value.
Standard value (D):
<For RJ boot> 1.0 - 1.5 mm (0.04 - 0.06 inch)
If the crimping amount is larger than 1.5 mm (0.06 inch)>
Readjust the value of (W) in step 5 according to the following formula, and then repeat the operation in step 7.
W = 3.0 mm (0.12 inch) - D
Example: If D = 1.6 mm (0.06 inch), then W = 1.4 mm (0.055 inch).
If the crimping amount is smaller than 1.0 mm (0.04 inch)>
Remove the RJ boot band, readjust the value of (W) in step 5 according to the following formula, and then repeat the operations in steps 6 and 7
using a new RJ boot band.
W = 3.0 mm (0.12 inch) - D
Example: If D = 0.9 mm (0.035 inch), then W = 2.1 mm (0.08 inch).
<For BJ boot> 2.4 - 2.8 mm (0,10 - 2,79 mm) <If the crimping amount is larger than 2.8 mm (0.11 inch)>
