NOISE
- Check the propeller shaft tube surface for dents or cracks. If damaged, replace propeller shaft assembly.
- If center bearing is noisy or damaged, replace propeller shaft assembly.
VIBRATION
If vibration is present at high speed, inspect propeller shaft runout first.
Scheme 32
- 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-405869-S25414588382011062300000) ".
- If runout still exceeds specifications, separate propeller shaft at final drive companion flange or transfer companion flange; then rotate companion flange 90, 180, 270 degrees and install propeller shaft.
- Check runout again. If runout still exceeds specifications, replace propeller shaft assembly.
- Check the vibration by driving vehicle.
