If the measured angle is not within the specification, adjust it with the bearing washer (See 6
"Adjust Propeller Shaft Angle").

6. ADJUST PROPELLER SHAFT ANGLE (for 3 Joint Type)

HINT:

If the propeller shaft angle is outside the specification or there is vibration and noise, perform the
propeller shaft adjustment using the following procedure.

a. Adjust the No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 joint angle.

1. Support the propeller shaft with a jack.

2. Remove the 2 center bearing mounting bolts.

3. Slowly lower the jack, and disconnect the center bearing.

4. Select an appropriate center support bearing washer thickness from the table below, and

obtain a washer set.
