(1) Position the strut assembly in the strut coil
spring compressor following the manufacturers
instructions. Position the lower hooks on the coil
spring first. The strut clevis bracket should be posi-
tioned straight outward from the compressor.
(2) Turn the upper mount of the strut assembly
toward the inside of the compressor as shown to
allow positioning of the compressor upper hooks (Fig.
45). Position the upper hooks on top of the coil spring
upper seat approximately 1 inch from outside diame-
ter of seat (Fig. 48).Do not allow hooks to be
placed closer to edge.Place a clamp on the lower
end of the coil spring, so the strut is held in place
once the strut shaft nut is removed.
(3) Compress the coil spring until all coil spring
tension is removed from the upper mount.
(4) Install Strut Nut Socket, Special Tool 6864, on
the strut shaft retaining nut (Fig. 46). Next, install a
10 mm socket on the hex on the end of the strut
shaft. While holding the strut shaft from turning,
remove the nut from the strut shaft.
(5) Remove the upper mount from the strut shaft.
(6) If the pivot bearing needs to be serviced,
remove it from the top of the coil spring upper seat
by pulling it straight up.
(7) Remove the clamp from the bottom of the coil
spring and remove the strut out through the bottom
of the coil spring.
NOTE: If the coil spring or upper spring seat needs
to be serviced, proceed with the next step, other-
wise, proceed with step 10.(8) Release the tension from the coil spring by
backing off the compressor drive fully. Push back the
compressor upper hooks and remove the upper spring
seat.
(9) Remove the coil spring from the spring com-
pressor.
(10) Remove the dust shield and jounce bumper as
an assembly from the strut shaft by pulling both
straight up and off the strut shaft. The dust shield
cannot be separated from the jounce bumper until
after it is removed from strut shaft.
(11) Remove the jounce bumper from the dust
shield. The jounce bumper is removed from the dust
shield by collapsing the dust shield until the jounce
bumper can be pulled free from the dust boot.
(12) Remove the spring isolator from the lower
spring seat on the strut (Fig. 39).
(13) Inspect the strut assembly components (Fig.
39) for the following and replace as necessary:
²Inspect the strut for any condition of shaft bind-
ing over the full stroke of the shaft.
²Check the upper mount for cracks and distortion
and its retaining studs for any sign of damage.
²Check the upper seat for stress cracks and wear.
²Check the upper spring isolator for severe dete-
rioration.
²Check for binding of the strut assembly pivot
bearing.
²Inspect the dust shield for rips and deteriora-
tion.
²Inspect the jounce bumper for cracks and signs
of deterioration.

ASSEMBLY - STRUT ASSEMBLY
For the disassembly and assembly of the strut
assembly, use of Strut Spring Compressor, Pentastar
Service Equipment (PSE) tool W-7200, or the equiva-
lent, is recommended to compress the coil spring.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions closely.
NOTE: Coil Springs on this vehicle are side-ori-
ented. Springs on the left side of the vehicle have a
left-hand wind top-to-bottom while springs on the
right side have a right-hand wind top-to-bottom.
Left and right springs must not be interchanged.
NOTE: If the coil spring has been removed from the
spring compressor, proceed with the next step, oth-
erwise, proceed with step 5.
(1) Place the coil spring in the compressor lower
hooks following the manufacturers instructions.
Proper orientation of the spring to the strut (once
installed) is necessary. Consider the following when
placing the coil spring in the compressor: From
above, the compressor back is at the 12 o'clock posi-
tion and you, standing in the front of the machine,
are at the 6 o'clock position. Place the lower coil
spring end at the 6 o'clock position for both left and
right springs. (Fig. 47).
(2) Install the upper seat and upper isolator on top
of the coil spring. Position the notch in the perimeter
of the upper seat toward the front of the compressor
(same 6 o'clock position as in step 1).
(3) Position the upper hooks on top of the coil
spring upper seat so the upper hooks span approxi-
mately 1 inch past outside diameter of upper seat(Fig. 48). This will allow proper clearance for upper
mount installation without pinching the hooks in-be-
tween the two pieces.Do not allow hooks to be
placed closer to edge.
(4) Compress the coil spring far enough to allow
strut installation.
(5) If the pivot bearing has been removed form the
upper seat, install the pivot bearing on the top of the
upper spring seat (Fig. 49). The bearing must be
installed on upper seat with the smaller diameter
side of the pivot bearing toward the spring seat. Be
sure the pivot bearing is sitting flat on the spring
seat once mounted.
(6) Install the spring isolator on the lower spring
seat of the strut (Fig. 39).

(7) Install the jounce bumper on the strut shaft
(Fig. 39). The jounce bumper is to be installed with
the small end pointing downward.
(8) Install the dust shield on the strut. Collapse
and stretch the dust shield down over the top of the
jounce bumper until the dust shield snaps into the
slot on the jounce bumper. The jounce bumper will be
at the top of the inner dust boot. Return the dust
shield to its fully extended length.
(9) Install the strut through the bottom of the coil
spring until the lower spring seat contacts the lower
end of the coil spring. The clevis bracket on the strut
should point straight outward away from the com-
pressor (to the 6 o'clock position). This position
should be within 5É of the lower end tip of the coil
spring (Fig. 50). If necessary, reposition the strut or
coil spring in the compressor so both of these line up
straight outward away from the compressor (to the 6
o'clock position). Install the clamp to hold the strut
and coil together.
(10) Install the strut mount over the strut shaft
and onto the top of the pivot bearing and upper seat
as shown (Fig. 45). Loosely install the retaining nut
on the strut shaft.
(11) Install Strut Nut Socket (on the end of a
torque wrench), Special Tool 6864, on the strut shaft
retaining nut (Fig. 46). Next, install a 10 mm socket
on the hex on the end of the strut shaft. While hold-
ing the strut shaft from turning, tighten the strut
shaft retaining nut to a torque of 100 N´m (75 ft.
lbs.).NOTE: Before releasing the tension the compressor
has on the spring, using the following figure as ref-
erence (Fig. 51), make sure the upper spring seat,
coil spring and strut clevis bracket are all lined up
properly (within 5É of one another).
(12) Slowly release the tension from the coil spring
by backing off the compressor drive fully. As the ten-
sion is relieved, make sure the upper mount, pivot
bearing and upper seat are align properly. Remove
the clamp from the lower end of the coil spring and
strut. Push back the spring compressor upper and
lower hooks, then remove the strut assembly from
the spring compressor.
(13) Install strut assembly on the vehicle. (Refer to
2 - SUSPENSION/FRONT/STRUT - INSTALLA-
TION)
INSTALLATION - STRUT ASSEMBLY
CAUTION: Front strut coil springs are side-oriented.
When installing a strut assembly, make sure the
strut being installed has the correct coil spring for
that side of the vehicle. Springs on the left side of
the vehicle have a left-hand wind top-to-bottom
while springs on the right side have a right-hand
wind top-to-bottom (Fig. 50). Do not interchange the
two sides.

(1) Install strut assembly into strut tower, aligning
and installing the 3 studs on the upper strut mount
into the holes in shock tower. Install the 3 upper
strut mount attaching nut/washer assemblies (Fig.
44). Then using a crow foot. tighten the 3 attaching
nuts to a torque of 28 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
CAUTION: The steering knuckle to strut assembly
attaching bolts are serrated and must not be turned
during installation. Install nuts while holding bolts
stationary in the steering knuckles.
NOTE: The strut clevis-to-steering knuckle bolts are
installed differently on each side of the vehicle. Left
hand side bolts are to be installed from vehicle rear
to front. Right side bolts are to be installed from
vehicle front to rear.
(2) Align strut assembly with steering knuckle.
Position arm of steering knuckle into strut assembly
clevis bracket. Align the strut assembly clevis
bracket mounting holes with the steering knuckle
mounting holes. Install the 2 strut assembly to steer-
ing knuckle attaching bolts (Fig. 43).If strut assem-
bly is attached to steering knuckle using a cam
bolt, the cam bolt must be installed in the lower
slotted hole on strut clevis bracket.Tighten the
strut clevis-to-steering knuckle attaching bolts to atorque of 81 N´m (60 ft. lbs.) plus an additional 1/4
(90É) turn after specified torque is met.
(3) Install the stabilizer bar link mounting stud
through the bracket on the strut assembly (Fig. 42).
CAUTION: When installing the nut on the mounting
stud of the stabilizer bar link, do not allow the stud
to rotate in it's socket. Hold the stud from rotating
by placing an open-end wrench on the flat
machined into the stud (Fig. 42).
(4) Hand thread the nut on the end of the stabi-
lizer bar link stud. Hold the stud from turning by
placing an open-end wrench on the flat machined
into the link's mounting stud, then tighten the nut
while holding the wrench in place (Fig. 42). Tighten
the nut to a torque of 88 N´m (65 ft. lbs.).
(5) Install the hydraulic brake hose and speed sen-
sor cable routing brackets on the strut assembly
brackets (Fig. 41). Tighten the routing bracket
attaching bolts to a torque of 13 N´m (10 ft. lbs.).
(6) Install the wheel/tire assembly on the vehicle.
(7) Install and tighten the wheel mounting stud
nuts in proper sequence until all nuts are torqued to

DESCRIPTION - REAR SUSPENSION
The rear suspension design on this vehicle uses
leaf springs, and a tube and casting axle (Fig. 1) (Fig.
2). The leaf springs used on the rear suspension of
this vehicle are of either a mono-leaf or multi-leaf
design.
There are 2 different rear suspension designs
available:
²Front-Wheel-Drive
²All-Wheel-Drive
The rear axle used on Front-Wheel-Drive applica-
tions of this vehicle is mounted to the rear leaf
springs using isolator bushings at the axle mounting
brackets.
The rear axle used on All-Wheel-Drive applications
of this vehicle is also mounted to the rear leafsprings, but does not use isolator bushings between
the rear axle and the leaf springs.
Each side of the rear suspension consists of these
major components:
²Leaf spring
²Jounce bumper
²Shock absorber
²Hub and bearing
²Track bar (one per suspension)
²Stabilizer bar (one per suspension)
OPERATION - REAR SUSPENSION
This rear suspension is designed to handle the var-
ious load requirements of the vehicle yet allow for a
comfortable ride.
The rear wheel bearings used are similar to the
bearings used in the front suspension. A hub and
bearing assembly is used.

HUB / BEARING
DESCRIPTION
The rear wheel bearing and rear wheel hub of this
vehicle are a one-piece sealed unit, or hub and bear-
ing unit type assembly. The hub and bearing is
mounted to the center of the rear axle using 4
mounting bolts. It has five wheel mounting studs on
the hub flange.
All-Wheel-Drive vehicles have a hub and bearing
unit with a splined hole in the center of the hub for
rear driveshaft stub axle acceptance.Front-Wheel-Drive vehicles with antilock brakes
have an internally mounted wheel speed sensor and
tone wheel. This hub and bearing can be identified
by the rounded cap and molded in connector on the
rear of the assembly (Fig. 7). The sensor and tone
wheel cannot be serviced separately from the hub
and bearing.
OPERATION
The hub and bearing has internal bearings that
allow the hub to rotate with the tire and wheel
assembly (and driveshaft on All-Wheel-Drive vehi-
cles). The five wheel mounting studs mount the tire
and wheel assembly, and disc brake rotor to the vehi-
cle.
On All-Wheel-Drive vehicles, the splined mating of
the driveshaft stub axle and hub allows the drive-
shaft to rotate with the hub and wheel.
Front-Wheel-Drive vehicles equipped with antilock
brakes have a wheel speed sensor and tone wheel
mounted to the rear of the hub and bearing. The tone
wheel rotates with the hub which is sensed by the
wheel speed sensor.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HUB AND
BEARING (REAR)
The bearing contained in the hub and bearing
assembly will produce noise and vibration when worn
or damaged. The noise will generally change when
the bearings are loaded. A road test of the vehicle is
normally required to determine the location of a
worn or damaged bearing.
Find a smooth level road surface and bring the
vehicle up to a constant speed. When vehicle is at a
constant speed, swerve the vehicle back and forth
from the left and to the right. This will load and
