Overhaul
Disassembly
CAUTION:
- Do not disassemble the BJ assembly.
- Special grease must be applied to the driveshaft joint. Do not substitute with another type of grease.
- The boot band should be replaced with a new one.
1. Remove the circlip (B) from the driveshaft spline (A).
2. Remove both boot bands from the transaxle side joint(TJ) case.
3. Pull out the boot from transaxle side joint case (B).
4. While dividing joint(TJ) boot (A) of the transaxle side, wipe the grease in TJ case (B) and collect them respectively.
CAUTION:
Make alignment marks on spider roller assembly (A), joint case (B), and shaft spline (C) to aid reassembly.
5. Remove the snap ring (A) and spider roller assembly (B) from the shaft.
6. Remove the spider assembly (B) from the driveshaft (A) using the special tool (09495-33000).
7. Clean the spider assembly.
8. Remove the boot (A) of the transaxle side joint(TJ).
CAUTION:
For reusing the boot (A), wrap tape (B) around the driveshaft splines (C) to protect the boot (A).
9. Using a plier or flat-tipped (-) screwdriver, remove the both side of clamp (B) of the dynamic damper (A).
10. Fix the driveshaft (A) with a vice (B) as illustrated.
11. Apply soap powder on the shaft to prevent being damaged between the shaft spline and the dynamic damper when the dynamic damper is removed.
12. Separate the dynamic damper (A) from the shaft (B) carefully.
Reassembly
1. Wrap tape around the driveshaft spline(TJ) to prevent damage to the boots.
2. Apply grease to the joint boot on the side of the wheel and install the boot.
3. Install the clamp.
4. To install the dynamic damper(A), keep the shaft(B) in a straight line and assemble the dynamic damper with the bands(C).
5. Assemble the transaxle side joint boot and bands.
6. Using the alignment marks (D) made during disassembly as a guide, install the spider assembly (A) and snap ring (B) on the driveshaft splines (C).
7. Add specified grease to the joint boot as much as it was wiped away at inspection.
8. Install the both boot band.
