2008 Toyota Matrix Parts Questions & Experts Answers
Q: How to remove the axle shaft assembly on 2008 Toyota Matrix?
A: The front drive shaft assembly removal process requires emptying manual transaxle oil as well as automatic transaxle fluid before starting. The following action involves removing both the front wheel along with the engine under cover from the left-hand side of the vehicle. You should remove the front axle shaft left-hand nut through unstaking operations made possible with Special Service Tool: 09930-00010 and a hammer application when you apply the brakes to prevent damaging drive shaft screws. The front stabilizer link assembly left-hand side separates from the shock absorber assembly through removal of the nut while using a hexagon wrench (6 mm) if the ball joint turns with the nut. Separate the front speed sensor left-hand side by detaching it from both the front shock absorber assembly then the steering knuckle. The next procedure requires the removal of the cotter pin and nut to disconnect the tie rod end sub-assembly left-hand side from the steering knuckle through the use of Special Service Tool: 09628-62011. The front suspension arm sub-assembly lower No. 1 left-hand side becomes detachable from the lower ball joint when the bolt and two nuts are removed. When separating the front drive shaft assembly left-hand side from the front axle assembly use a plastic hammer to perform the operation without damaging the speed sensor rotor or boot when ABS is present. Use Special Service Tools 09520-01010, 09520-24010 and 09520-32040 to uninstall the front drive shaft unit left-hand side while making sure not to damage the oil seal and protecting both the boot and dust cover before the assembly falls. The claw of the Special Service Tool should be hooked to the designated position in case of challenging removal. Identity the same steps for installing the drive shaft assembly on the right side. The hub bearing needs final support from Special Service Tools: 09608-16042, 09608-02021 and 09608-02041 to stop damage under vehicle weight application.
