(d) Tighten the SST so that the outboard joint small boot clamp is pinched.
SST: 09521-24010
NOTICE:
Do not overtighten the SST.
(e) Using SST, measure the clearance of the outboard joint small boot clamp.
SST: 09240-00020
Clearance:
1.2 to 4.0 mm (0.0472 to 0.1575 in.)
NOTICE:
When the measured value is greater than the specified value, retighten the clamp.

(c) Using a brass bar and hammer, tap in the tripod joint to the outboard joint shaft.
NOTICE:
- Do not tap the roller.
- Be sure to install the tripod joint assembly in the correct direction.
(d) Using a snap ring expander, install a new shaft snap ring.
(e) Pack the outboard joint and boot with grease.
Grease capacity:
145 to 165 g (5.1 to 5.8 oz.)
(f) Align the matchmarks and install the inboard joint assembly to the outboard joint shaft assembly.
9. INSTALL INBOARD JOINT BOOT
