1

Remove heat shield under propeller shaft intermediate bearing  (4). To do so, unscrew screws  (2).

2

Unscrew screws at propeller shaft intermediate bearing  (4), secure propeller shaft.

3

Fabricate propeller shaft intermediate bearing spacers  (3) using geometry of propeller shaft intermediate bearing  (4).

 Instead of propeller shaft intermediate bearing spacers  (3), commercially-available washers with the appropriate bore diameter and thickness may also be used.

 For each 1 mm plate thickness, the articulation angle at the front of the rear propeller shaft relative to the rear of the rear propeller shaft  (4) is increased by approx. 0.130. During this the:
 the articulation angle of the transfer case relative to the front of the rear propeller shaft (K3) is reduced by approx. 0.07°,
 the articulation angle at the rear of the rear propeller shaft relative to the rear axle differential (K5) is reduced by approx. 0.07°.

 With a spacer thickness of more than 2  mm, the screw length of the screws on the propeller shaft intermediate bearing  (4) must be extended by 5  mm.

4

Insert propeller shaft intermediate bearing spacers  (3) or washers between frame floor assembly and propeller shaft intermediate bearing  (4).

5

Mount propeller shaft intermediate bearing  (4) and tighten screws at propeller shaft intermediate bearing  (4).

6

Install heat shield under propeller shaft intermediate bearing  (4).
