APPEARANCE AND NOISE
- Check the propeller shaft tube surface for dents or cracks. If malfunction is detected, replace propeller shaft assembly.
- If center bearing is noisy or damaged, replace propeller shaft assembly.
VIBRATION
If vibration is present at high speed, adjust the propeller shaft phase first.
- Check the propeller shaft for bend and damage. If damaged, replace propeller shaft assembly.
- Perform a cruise test drive to check the propeller shaft for runout. If vibration occurs, separate propeller shaft at electric controlled coupling of final drive; then change the phase between electric controlled coupling stud bolt and propeller shaft by the one bolt hole at a time and install propeller shaft.
- If vibration is still detected, measure propeller shaft runout after removing it. Refer to " «INSPECTION»(ref-616751-S17775030722014051900000) ".
