Reassembly
Reassembly1) Using press and special tool, press-fit needle bearing into center case (1). As shown in figure, apply straightedge (2) to top surface of case and press-fit till limit line (3) of special tool aligns with bottom surface of straightedge (2) (i.e., case surface).
NOTE:
^ Press-fitting needle bearing according to above procedure will set needle bearing 3 mm before it hits case bottom.
^ Once it is press-fit all way down to case bottom, removal would be very difficult if it becomes necessary.
2) Using special tool and hammer, drive oil seal (1) into center case (2) until it becomes flush with case surface. Apply grease "A" to oil seal lip.
3) Install oil gutter to center case (2) and tighten bolt (1) applying thread lock cement "B".
4) Using special tool and press, install needle bearing into rear case (1). As shown in figure, apply straightedge (2) to case surface and press-fit till top (3) of special tool (A) aligns with bottom surface of straightedge (2) (i.e., case surface).
NOTE: As with needle bearing in center case, above installation procedure will set needle bearing at a position 3 mm before it hits case bottom.
5) Using special tool and hammer, install oil seal (1) into rear case (2) until it becomes flush with case surface. Apply grease "A" to oil seal lip.
6) Install rear case plate (1) and bolt (2) applying thread lock cement "B".
NOTE: Removal of rear case plate is not required normally. However, if it is removed or replaced, install it with bolt applied with thread lock cement.

^ Point mark on output rear shaft between positions of bearing No. 2 and speedometer drive gear indicates steel ball location in the front.
^ Point mark on bush flange also means position where steel ball is met.
17) Install synchronizer plate (1).
18) Using special tool, press-fit bearing No. 2 (1) into output rear shaft. It is necessary to place support base at lower end of shaft.
19) After installing large size circlip (4), install speedometer drive gear (3) and secure it with small size circlip (2).
20) Install interlock steel ball (1).
21) Fit sleeve (2) to reduction clutch hub (1).
NOTE:
^ Circumferential groove mark (thicker rail side which works as shift stopper) should be inside (rear).
^ Hub has no specific direction.
22) Combine sleeve (8) and hub to reduction shift shaft assembly (6) and install them into center case (9). Then put locating ball (4) and spring (3) also into case and loosely install bolt (1).
23) With sealant applied to rubber plug (5), insert it into hole in case.
NOTE: When installing reduction shift shaft, front drive shift shaft must be placed at 4WD position.
24) If friction ring (2) has been removed from counter shaft (1), press-fit new one onto shaft, using care so that it is installed in proper direction and position as shown in figure.
25) Install needle bearing (3), spacer (4), counter gear (2), steel balls (5) and washers (1) onto shaft (6).
NOTE: Washers must be installed with its oil slot side facing gear.
26) Install counter shaft assembly into case. If O-ring (5) has been removed, install new O-ring onto shaft (3) and apply grease "A". Also, install low gear needle bearing (1).
27) With circlip (2) placed on input gear (1), press-fit input gear bearing (3).
28) Fix bearing with circlip (4).
29) Install oil seal (1) to front case (2) so that end surface of oil seal becomes flush with that case. Apply grease "A" to oil seal lip.
30) Using special tool, drive input gear assembly (2) into front case (1).
31) Fix with circlip (1) by means of snap ring pliers.
32) Oil to rotating parts and clean mating surfaces of center case (1) and front case (2).
33) Apply sealant "C" to mating surface of front case (2) evenly and put cases together.
NOTE:
^ For smooth installation of front case, apply grease to counter shaft O-ring.
^ When mating front case, make sure that input gear meshes with counter gear first.
34) Torque 9 front case bolts (2) to specification.
35) Torque counter shaft plate fixing bolt (1) applied with thread lock cement to specification.
