Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
 Perform final tightening of bolts and nuts at the vehicle installation position (rubber bushing), under unladenconditions with tires on level ground.
 Perform inspection after installation. Refer to FSU-18, "
Inspection".
InspectionINFOID:0000000006225651
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Appearance
Check the following items, and replace the part if necessary.
 Upper link and bushing for deformation, cracks or damage.
 Ball joint boot for cracks or other damage, and also for grease leakage.
Ball Joint Inspection
Manually move ball stud to confirm it moves smoothly with no binding.
Swing Torque Inspection
1. Move the ball joint at least ten times by hand to check for smooth movement.
2. Hook a spring balance (A) at cotter pin mounting hole. Confirm
spring balance measurement value is within specifications when
ball stud begins moving.
 If swing torque exceeds standard range, replace upper link assem- bly.
Rotating Torque Inspection
1. Move the ball joint at least ten times by hand to check for smooth movement.
2. Attach mounting nut to ball stud. Check that rotating torque is
within specifications with a preload gauge [SST: 3127S000 (J-
25765-A)] (A).
 If rotating torque exceeds standard range, replace lower link assembly.
Axial End Play Inspection
1. Move the ball joint at least ten times by hand to check for smooth movement.
2. Move tip of ball stud in axial direction to check for looseness.
 If axial end play exceeds standard range, replace upper link assembly.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
1. Check wheel sensor harness for proper connection. Refer to BRC-134, "FRONT WHEEL SENSOR :
Exploded View".
2. Check wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-7, "
Inspection".
3. Adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-64, "
Work Procedure".
