• Q: How to service and repair the Drive Shaft assembly on 2006 Toyota Sienna?

  A: The service and repair of 4WD propeller shaft assembly starts with removing the propeller assembly while adding essential matchmarks to both flanges before removing 4 nuts along with bolts and washers. Marks on the propeller shaft sub-assembly and universal joint flange should be made before using a 6mm hexagon wrench to remove six bolts and two washers alongside the intermediate shaft from the rear of the propeller shaft assembly. The center support bearing assembly No.1 requires special attention through nut and plate washer removal using Special Service Tool: 09330-00021(s) which holds the front flange while marking the rear flange and shaft. Secure the intermediate shaft inside a vise between aluminum plates with precaution against excessive force while you utilize Special Service Tool: 09950-40011 (09951-04020, 09952-04010, 09953-04030, 09954-04010, 09955-04061, 09957-04010, 09958-04011)(s) to get rid of the rear flange by safeguarding the universal joint flange from damage. Repeat the process for the front by loosening the staked part of the nut with a chisel and hammer, using Special Service Tool: 09330-00021(s) to hold the front flange while removing the nut and plate washer, marking the front flange and shaft, securing the intermediate shaft in a vise, and using Special Service Tool: 09950-40011 (09951-04020, 09952-04010, 09953-04030, 09954-04010, 09955-04061, 09957-04010, 09958-04011)(s) to remove the front flange, again being careful not to damage the universal joint flange, followed by removing the center support bearing assembly No.1 (front) and washer.
