-
- (11) Remove the joint shaft. (See JOINT SHAFT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [LF, MZR 2.0 DISI i-stop].) (See JOINT SHAFT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [ZY, Z6, L3 Turbo, L5].)
8. Install the SST using the following procedures.
-
Caution
-
• Refer to the SST instruction manual for the basic handing procedure.
- (1) Remove the installation bolt for the bracket securing the lower radiator hose.
-
- (2) Set the bracket securing the lower radiator hose aside to prevent it from interfering with the front shaft of the SST (right side)
- (3) As shown in the figure, set the rear shafts of the SST to the left and right shock absorber bolts.
-
- (4) Install front foot No.2 to the left/right front shaft of the SST, then align the groove of the front shaft of the SST with the folded up part of the vehicle as shown in the figure.
-
- (5) Adjust the positions of the SST side bars so that they are the same height (left and right) and horizontal. Make sure each joint is securely tightened.
-
- (6) Apply tension to the chain to secure the engine.
