After making a match mark (C) on the rubber coupling (A) and
rear differential companion (B), remove the propeller shaft mounting
bolts (D).
Tightening torque :
88.3 ~ 107.9 N.m (9.0 ~ 11.0 kgf.m, 65.0 ~ 79.5 lb-ft)

1. |
When retightening the propeller shaft mounting bolts after
removing them, each bolt and washer must be placed in its original
position and bolt insertion direction must be the same as before, so
make marks not to allow the bolts and washers to be mixed up before
removing the propeller shaft. |
2. |
If the position and direction of the propeller shaft mounting
bolts and washers are reversed, it may cause vibration and noise at
high vehicle speeds due to imbalance in the propeller shaft. |
3. |
If abnormal vibration and noise occur at high vehicle speeds
after replacing propeller shaft with a new one, balance the propeller
shaft with a balancing machine. |
