How to remove and install the axle shaft on 2001 Toyota RAV4?

You must begin axle shaft replacement or removal with hub bearing support from Special Service Tool: 09608-16042 (09608-02021, 09608-02041) unless the vehicle weight rests on the tool. After separating your drive shaft from the axle hub, maintain careful distance from the ABS speed sensor rotor serrations to avoid any damage. Initially detach the front wheel before tightening the bolts to 103 Nm using 1,050 kgf-cm or 76 ft. lbs. torque values. Drain gear oil M/T and ATF A/T followed by the transfer oil if the vehicle has 4WD. Through the use of Special Service Tool: 09930-00010 and a hammer, unstake the locknut while braking and torque to 216 Nm (2,200 kgf-cm, 159 ft. lbs.). Disconnect the lower suspension arm by first removing its bolt and two nuts and torquing them to 128 Nm (1,310 kgf-cm, 94 ft. lbs.). Use a plastic hammer to separate the drive shaft from the axle hub while maintaining care of the ABS speed sensor rotor. The two bolts securing the RH drive shaft in 2WD must be unfastened before removing the drive shaft while applying MP grease to the oil seal lip during assembly. Remove the drive shaft with the Special Service Tools 09520-01010 and 09520-24010 (09520-32040) before removing the snap ring with a screwdriver which should have its opening facing downwards during installation. After installation verify that the drive shaft does not touch the pinion shaft through sounds or manual feeling during installation. Post-installation confirm 2 - 3 mm (0.08 - 0.12 inch) of axial movement while ensuring the drive shaft remains difficulty to remove with hands. Follow the installation procedure by reversing the removal steps then proceed to check the ABS speed sensor signal together with front wheel alignment.
