• Q: How to service the front Wheel Stud on 2006 Toyota Tacoma?

  A: The service process for the front wheel stud begins by removing the front wheel along with disconnecting the negative battery cable. Completely drain the brake fluid before washing off any fluid immediately when it comes in contact with painted areas. Proceed by removing the front disc brake caliper assembly on every configuration of 2WD and the front disc brake caliper assembly and front disc on 4WD/Pre-Runner models. The front wheel stud extraction requires Special Service Tool: 09611-12010 and a screwdriver. Place a new stud through the axle hub before adding the washer plate in accordance with the illustration and tension the hub nut for installation. Replacement of both front components-front disc and front disc brake caliper assembly should be followed by insertion of the front wheel with a torque setting of 113 Nm (1,152 kgf-cm, 83 ft. lbs.). The connection between the negative battery terminal and cable requires 3.9 Nm (40 kgf-cm) of torque for installation. The reservoir needs to receive brake fluid before proceeding with bleaching the master cylinder along with brake lines when needed for both configurations to ensure proper fluid levels and detect any fluid leakage.
