NOISE

Check the propeller shaft tube surface for dents or cracks. If damaged, replace propeller shaft assembly.

VIBRATION

If vibration is present at high speed, inspect propeller shaft runout first.

Scheme 26

1. With a dial indicator, measure propeller shaft runout at runout measuring points by rotating final drive companion flange with hands. Limit Propeller shaft runout : Refer to " «PROPELLER SHAFT RUNOUT»(ref-368822-S04220967372010081300000) ".
2. If runout still exceeds specifications, separate propeller shaft at final drive companion flange; then rotate companion flange 90, 180, 270 degrees and install propeller shaft.
3. Check runout again. If runout still exceeds specifications, replace propeller shaft assembly.
4. Check the vibration by driving vehicle.

1. Check the propeller shaft tube surface for dents or cracks. If damaged, replace propeller shaft assembly.
2. If center bearing is noisy or damaged, replace propeller shaft assembly.

If vibration is present at high speed, inspect propeller shaft runout first.
