Right driveshaft (With intermediate shaft)
1.
Right driveshaft (With intermediate shaft): Apply 0.5?1.0 g (0.018?0.035 oz) of UM246 (P/N 41211-PY5-305) to the whole splined surface (A) of the right driveshaft.
2.
Right driveshaft (With intermediate shaft): After applying grease, remove the grease from the splined grooves at intervals of 2?3 splines and from the set ring groove (B) so that air can bleed from the intermediate shaft.
3.
Left driveshaft and Right driveshaft (Without intermediate shaft): Clean the areas where the driveshaft contacts the differential thoroughly with solvent, then dry them compressed air.
NOTE: Do not wash the rubber parts with solvent.
4.
Insert the inboard end (A) of the driveshaft into the differential (B) or the intermediate shaft (C) until the set ring (D) locks in the groove (E).
NOTE: Insert the driveshaft horizontally to prevent damaging the oil seal.
3.
Outboard Joint - Connect
1.
Apply about 3 g (0.11 oz) of moly 60 paste (P/N 08734-0001) to the contact area (A) of the outboard joint and the front wheel bearing.
NOTE: The paste helps prevent noise and vibration.
