(e) Using SST, adjust both bearings so that the snap ring grooves are at maximum and equal in width.

SST: 09332-25010

(f) Install 2 new snap rings of equal thickness which will allow 0 mm (0 in.) axial play.

HINT:

Do not reuse the snap rings.

3. INSTALL REAR PROPELLER SHAFT UNIVERSAL JOINT SLEEVE YOKE SUB-ASSEMBLY

(a) Apply MP grease to the propeller shaft spline and sleeve yoke sliding surface.

(b) Align the matchmarks on the sleeve yoke and propeller shaft.

(c) Install the propeller shaft into the sleeve yoke.

4. INSPECT SPIDER BEARING

(a) Check that the spider bearing moves smoothly.

(b) Check the spider bearing axial play.

Maximum bearing axial play:

0 mm (0 in.)

5. 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.
