ADJUSTING BOLTAdjust rhe depth byturning the bolt.
Install the knuckle in the reverse order of removal,
and pay particular attention to the following items:
. Be careful not to damage the ball joint boots
when installing the knuckle,
. Torque all mounting hardware to the specified
torque values.
. Torque the castle nuts to the lower torque speci-
fications. then tighten them only far enough to
align the slot with the pin hole. Do not align the
castle nut by loosening.
. Install new cotter pins into the castle nuts after
torquang.
. Avoid twisting the sensor wires when installing
the wheel sensor.
. Before installing the brake disc. clean the mating
surfaces of the front hub and the inside of the
brake disc.
. Before installing the wheel, clean the mating sur-
face of the brake disc and the inside of the wheel.. Check the front wheel alignment, and adjust it if
necessary {see page 18-4).

Inspection
Check the front and rear pulser for chipped or dam-aged teeth.
Measure the air gap between the wheel sensor andpulser all the way around while rotating the pulser.
Slandard: 0.4 - 1.0 mm (0.02 - 0.04 in,
NOTE; lf the gap exceeds 1.0 mm (0.04 in), theprobability is a distorted suspension arm which
should be replaced.

1. Remove the hub bearing unit (see section 18).
2. Remove the four backing plate bolts.
3, Pull the backing plate away from the trailing arm, then remove the wheel sensor. lt is not necessary to disconnect the
