REMOVAL
1. Remove tires from vehicle with power tool.
2. Remove brake hose lock plate. Then remove brake hose from strut assembly.
3. Remove wheel sensor harness from strut assembly. CAUTION:
Do not pull wheel sensor harness.
4. Remove stabilizer connecting rod upper nut with power tool, separate stabilizer connecting rod and strut assembly.
5. Remove fixing bolts and nuts between strut assembly and steer- ing knuckle with power tool.
6. Remove mounting nuts on mounting insulator bracket with power tool, then remove strut upper plate, strut spacer and strut
from vehicle.
INSTALLATION

Refer to FSU-8, "Removal and Installation" for tightening torque. Install in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
Refer to component parts location and do not reuse non-reusable parts.

After removing/installing or replacing suspension components, check wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-6,
"Wheel Alignment Inspection" .

After adjusting wheel alignment, adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-6, "Adjust-
ment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .

Check the following item after service.
–Installation condition of wheel sensor harness.

Swing Torque Inspection
NOTE:
Before measurement, move ball joint at least ten times by hand to check for smooth movement.

Hook spring balance at ball stud. Confirm spring balance mea-
surement value is within the specifications when ball stud begins
moving.

If it is outside the specified range, replace transverse link
assembly.
Rotating Torque Inspection

Attach mounting nut to ball stud. Check that rotating torque is
within the specifications with a preload gauge (SST).

If it is outside the specified range, replace transverse link
assembly.
Axial End Play Inspection

Move tip of ball joint in axial direction to check for looseness.

If it is outside the specified range, replace transverse link assembly.
INSTALLATION

Refer to FSU-8, "Removal and Installation" for tightening torque. Install in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
Refer to component parts location and do not reuse non-reusable parts.

After removing/installing or replacing suspension components, check wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-6,
"Wheel Alignment Inspection" .

After adjusting wheel alignment, adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-6, "Adjust-
ment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .

Tire RotationNLS0006U

After rotation the tires, adjust the tire pressure.

Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle has been driven for
1,000 km (600 miles) (also in cases of a flat tire, etc.).
CAUTION:

Do not include the T-type spare tire when rotating the tires.

When installing wheels, tighten them diagonally by dividing
the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels
from developing any distortion.

Be careful not to tighten wheel nut at torque exceeding the
criteria for preventing strain of disc rotor.
Checking Brake Fluid Level and LeaksNLS0006V

If fluid level is extremely low, check brake system for leaks.
Checking Brake Lines and CablesNLS0006W

Check brake fluid lines and parking brake cables for improper
attachment, leaks, chafing, abrasions, deterioration, etc.
Changing Brake FluidNLS0006X
1. Drain brake fluid from each bleed valve.
2. Refill until new brake fluid comes out from each bleed valve. Use same procedure as in bleeding hydraulic system to refill
brake fluid.
Refer to BR-10, "
Bleeding Brake System" .

Refill with recommended Genuine Nissan Super Heavy Duty
Brake Fluid or equivalent DOT 3 (US FMVSS No. 116).
Refer to MA-12, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRI-
CANTS" .

Never reuse drained brake fluid.

Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas. Tightening torque of wheel nut
: 108 N·m (11 kg, 83 ft-lb)
