10. INSTALLATION OF REAR SPEED SENSOR <MID>(1) Teimn;rarily install the speed sensor to the rear axle
Caution
Be careful when handling the pole piece at the tip of
the speed sensor and the toothed edge of the rotor
so as not to damage them by striking against metal
objects.(2) Note the following points when connecting the speed
sensor cable, and secure the cable by the clip.
@I Secure the clip so that the white-painted part
(shaded in the illustration) of the speed sensor cableis not twisted.
@ Be sure that there is space (where shown in the
illustration) so that the trailing arm and speed
sensor cable do not contact, and then secure by the
clip.
Caution
Because there is the possibility of damage to the
cable during driving if the speed sensor cable and
the trailing arm come into contact, or if the speed
sensor cable is twisted, care must be taken regard-
ing this point.(3) Insert a feeler gauge into the space between the speed
sensor’s pole piece and the rotor’s toothed surface, andthen tighten the speed sensors at the position where
the clearance is the standard value.
Standard value:
0.3-0.9 mm (.012-.035 in.)
NOTECheck to be sure that there is no contact of the speed
sensor’s pole piece and the rotor’s toothed surface
when the rear hub assembly is slowly rotated one time.
If there is contact, it is probable that the rotor or the rearhub is installed incorrectly, recheck installation.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
REAR WHEEL ALIGNMENT INSPECTIONN17FAAC
The rear suspension assembly must be free of worn, loosen or
damaged parts prior to measurement of rear wheel alignment.
Standard value:
Toe-in (Left-right difference)
Of3 mm (Of.118 in.)
Camber-45’ + 30’
NOTEThe rear wheel alignment is set at the factory and cannot be
adjusted.If toe-in or camber is not within the standard value, replace
bent or damaged parts.
WHEEL BEARING END PLAY ADJUSTMENT,7FBA0
1.Inspect the play of the bearings while the vehicle is jacked
up and resting on floor jack.
2.Remove the hub cap and then release the parking brake.
3. Remove the caliper assembly and the brake disc.
4. Check the bearing’s end play.
Place a dial gauge against the hub surface; then move the
hub in the axial direction and check whether or not there isend play.
Limit: 0.01 mm
(.004 in.) or less
NOTE12AO531If the limit value is exceeded, the lock nut should be
tightened to the specified torque and check the end play
again.
5.Replace the rear hub bearing unit if an adjustment cannot
be made to within the limit.

4. After turnina the hub a few times to seat the bearing,
attach a spriig balance to the hub bolt, and, pulling at a 9@angle from the hub bolt, measure to determine whether or
not the rotary-sliding resistance of the rear hub (the
rotary-sliding torque of the rear hub) is the standard value.
Limit:
Rear hub rotary-sliding resistance
31N (7 Ibs.) or less
Rear hub rotary-sliding torque1.8 Nm (1.30
ft.lbs.) or less
NOTEIf the limit value is exceed, loosen the nut and then tighten
it to the specified torque, and check the rear hub
rotary-sliding torque again.
5. Replace the rear hub bearing unit if an adjustment cannot
