Adjustment Chart
HOW TO READ THIS CHARTTake measurements, then calculate the No. 2 and No. 3 joint angles. Mark the calculated values on the chart and read the coordinates. Replace the adjusting washer and shim in accordance with the coordinates read and adjust the joint angles.
Example:
Measurements (Installation angle):
Intermediate shaft: 2°00'
Propeller shaft: 2°51'
Differential: 1°54'.
Joint angle:
No. 2: 2°00' - 2°51'= -51'.
No. 3: 2°51' - 1°54'= 57'.
Adjustment:
Center support bearing
- Use an adjusting washer which is 2.0 mm (0.079 inch) thicker.
Differential
- Use an adjusting shim which is 1.0 mm (0.039 inch) thicker.
NOTE: If a washer and shim of the exact thickness are not available, use the parts which are nearest in thickness.
NOTICE: Check the joint angle once again after making the adjustment.
