4.	Remove the bracket (A). Tightening torque : 53.9 ~ 63.7 N.m (5.5 ~ 6.5 kgf.m, 39.8 ~ 47.0 lb-ft)

5.	Loosen the mounting bolt (A). Tightening torque : 39.2 ~ 58.8 N.m (4.0 ~ 6.0 kgf.m, 28.9 ~ 43.4 lb-ft)

6.	Disconnect the rubber hanger (B), (C) and then remove the muffler.

7.	Loosen the mount bolts and then aluminum cover (A). Tightening torque : 5.0 ~ 8.0 N.m (0.5 ~ 0.8 kgf.m, 3.6 ~ 5.7 lb-ft)

After making a match mark (C) on the rubber coupling (A) and rear differential companion (B), remove the propeller shaft mounting bolts (D). Tightening torque : 88.3 ~ 107.9 N.m (9.0 ~ 11.0 kgf.m, 65.0 ~ 79.5 lb-ft) 1. When retightening the propeller shaft mounting bolts after removing them, each bolt and washer must be placed in its original position and bolt insertion direction must be the same as before, so make marks not to allow the bolts and washers to be mixed up before removing the propeller shaft. 2. If the position and direction of the propeller shaft mounting bolts and washers are reversed, it may cause vibration and noise at high vehicle speeds due to imbalance in the propeller shaft. 3. If abnormal vibration and noise occur at high vehicle speeds after replacing propeller shaft with a new one, balance the propeller shaft with a balancing machine.
