Deviation
Front wheel vibration
Noise (drive shaft)ReferenceII. On-board Inspection1. Check front wheel hub bearing
(1) Remove front wheel.
(2) Remove front brake caliper assembly.
(3) Remove front brake disc.
(4) Check the bearing backlash.
Set a dial indicator near the front wheel hub center to check
the backlash.

If the backlash exceeds the maximum value, replace the front
wheel hub bearing.
(5) Check the front wheel hub deviation
Using a dial indicator, check the deviation of the surface of the
wheel hub outside the hub bolt.
Maximum: 0.07mm
If the backlash exceeds the maximum value, replace the front
wheel hub subassembly.Propeller Shaft/DriveshaftPropeller Shaft, Driveshaft and Transaxle4-17 -

Be careful not to drop the drive shaft assembly. -

15. Install LF steering knuckle assembly
Notice:
The hub bearing could be damaged if it is subjected to the vehicle
weight, such as when moving the vehicle with the drive shaft
bearing removed.
Therefore if it is absolutely necessary to place the vehicle weight
on the hub bearing, first support it with the special service tool for
front hub bearing.
