SERVICE:
When loosening the propeller shaft from the bevel gear, final drive or when replacing the propeller shaft, it is important that the following method steps
are taken to prevent damaging the rubber boot on the joint.
Note: When handling a propeller shaft out of the vehicle, it is important to support it so that the boot on the center joint is not damaged. Allowing the
shaft to 'fold' at the center joint may
cause the boot to be cut by the edge of the joint.
