Front Propeller Shaft Assembly (For Tmt Made) -- Reassembly |
- NOTICE:
- When using a vise, place aluminum plates between the part and vise.
- When using a vise, do not overtighten it.
1. INSTALL UNIVERSAL JOINT SPIDER ASSEMBLY |
![]() |
- HINT:
- Use the same procedure for both universal joint spiders.
Apply MP grease to a new spider and 2 new spider bearings.
- NOTICE:
- Be careful not to apply too much grease.
Fit the spider into the flange yoke.
Using SST, install the 2 spider bearings to the spider.

Install 2 new snap rings to the installed spider bearings. The snap rings must have equal thickness and allow 0 to 0.05 mm (0 to 0.00196 in.) of axial play.

- NOTICE:
- New snap rings must be used.
- The snap ring thickness must be the same on both ends.
Using a plastic-faced hammer, tap the flange yoke until there is no clearance between the spider bearings and snap rings.

Align the matchmarks on the flange yoke and propeller shaft.
Install new spider bearings on the sleeve yoke side.
- HINT:
- Use the procedure described above.
2. INSPECT UNIVERSAL JOINT SPIDER ASSEMBLY |
Clamp the propeller shaft in a vise between aluminum plates.
- NOTICE:
- Do not overtighten the vise.
Check the spider bearings for wear or damage.
Check the axial play of each spider bearing by turning the yoke while holding the shaft tightly.
- Maximum bearing axial play:
- 0.05 mm (0.00196 in.)

3. INSPECT PROPELLER SHAFT GREASE FITTING DIRECTION |
- HINT:
- When replacing a spider bearing, be sure that the grease fitting hole is facing the direction shown in the illustration.
- Fill the grease fittings with MP grease.
