Wheel Bearings

Start the service and repair process of rear wheel bearings by detaching the rear wheel while applying 104 Nm (1,050 kgf-cm, 77 ft. lbs.) of torque. Inspect the bearing backlash together with the axle hub deviation after you remove the brake drum. A dial indicator positioned around the center of the axle hub should measure shaft backlash in the bearing direction; the maximum acceptable measurement is 0.05 mm (0.0020 inch) yet exceeds replacement of the bearing. The spectrum for dial indicator measurements at the axle hub surface outside the hub bolt stands at 0.07 mm (0.0028 inch) and break this limit for removal of both the bearing and axle hub. The first step is to disconnect the ABS speed sensor and then remove the rear axle hub by unthreading its 4 nuts while applying 80 Nm of torque (820 kgf-cm, 59 ft. lbs.). To install the components follow the opposite removal process while testing the ABS speed sensor signal after finishing installation.

Follow the reverse order of removal and check the ABS speed sensor signal and rear wheel alignment after installation.

Remove the brake drum.

Install the rear brake drum sub-assembly.

Remove the bolt and nut without turning the nut, applying a torque of 113 Nm (1,150 kgf-cm, 83 ft. lbs.).

Loosen the 3 nuts, applying a torque of 196 Nm (2,000 kgf.cm, 145 ft. lbs.) for reused nuts and 255 Nm (2,600 kgf.cm, 188 ft. lbs.) for new nuts, while Nut B requires 181 Nm (1,850 kgf.cm, 134 ft. lbs.).

Remove the brake caliper and disc with a torque of 47 Nm (475 kgf-cm, 34 ft. lbs.), and support the brake caliper securely.

Use snap ring pliers to remove the snap ring, place the inner race on the outside of the bearing, and then employ Special Service Tool: 09310-35010, 09527-17011 and a press to remove the bearing.

Torque the nut to 123 Nm (1,250 kgf.cm, 90 ft. lbs.) and then insert a new cotter pin.

Use Special Service Tool: 09555-55010, 09950-60010 (09951-00400), 09950-70010 (09951-07100) along with a press to extract the inner race.

Disconnect the ABS speed sensor connector.

Check the deviation at the axle hub surface outside the hub bolt, adhering to the same maximum limit for replacement if necessary.

Take out the cotter pin and nut, then use Special Service Tool: 09628-62011 to detach the lower ball joint.

Take off the cotter pin and lock cap, then while applying the brakes, remove the nut.

Remove the rear axle hub by taking off the 4 nuts, applying a torque of 80 Nm (820 kgf-cm, 59 ft. lbs.).
