The procedure for wheel bearing service starts with front wheel removal at a torque level of 103 Nm which corresponds to 1,050 kgf-cm and 76 ft. lbs. First inspect the bearing backlash and axle hub deviation by removing the 2 bolts and
Brake Caliper and disc followed by proper support of the brake caliper. The bearing should be replaced if a dial indicator determines that backlash in the axle hub area exceeds 0.05 mm (0.0020 inch). Measure the axle hub surface at the area outside the bolt using a maximum range of 0.07 mm (0.0028 inch) for correct measurements. If exceeding 0.07 mm (0.0028 inch), replace the axle hub. Reassemble the brake caliper along with the 2 bolts and disc by torquing them to 107 Nm (1,090 kgf-cm, 79 ft. lbs.). The drive shaft lock nut can be unstaked by using Special Service Tool: 09930-00010 with a hammer while applying brake pressure until achieving a torque of 216 Nm (2,200 kgf-cm, 159 ft. lbs.). Support the brake caliper in place and detach both brake components degrees First remove the ABS speed sensor by applying 8.0 Nm (82 kgf-cm, 71 inch lbs.) before unfastening the 2 nuts from the
Shock Absorber's lower side with 153 Nm (1,560 kgf-cm, 113 ft. lbs.) while leaving the bolts intact. Following tie rod end detachment from the steering knuckle, users must first remove the cotter pin and nut with 49 Nm torque (500 kgf-cm, 36 ft.lbs.). Users should adjust nut torque when holes for new cotter pins do not align to 60 Nm. The tie rod end needs to be disconnected by using Special Service Tool 09628-62011. The technician must disassemble the lower suspension arm from the lower
Ball Joint through a torque procedure of 142 Nm (1,450 kgf-cm, 105 ft. lbs.) by removing two nuts and a bolt. You should detach the steering knuckle along with the axle hub by removing its 2 bolts and nuts situated at the shock absorber's lower side while protecting both the boot and ABS speed sensor rotor from damage. The installation process repeats the disassembly order while you should verify ABS speed sensor performance together with front wheel alignment following installation.
