GENERAL INFORMATION
FRONT AXLE26-2
GENERAL INFORMATION
M1261000100648
The front axle consists of front hubs, knuckles, wheel
bearings and driveshafts, and has the following fea
-
tures:
•The wheel bearing is a double-row angular con-
tact ball bearing which incorporates the oil seals
and is highly resistant to thrust loads.
•The driveshaft incorporates BJ-TJ type constant
velocity joints with high transmission efficiency for
low vibration and noise.
•The dynamic damper has been mounted on the
driveshaft to reduce differential gear noise.
•ABS rotor for detecting the wheel speed is
press-fitted to the BJ.
NOTE: .
•TJ: Tripod Joint
•BJ: Birfield Joint

LOWER ARM BALL JOINT AXIAL PLAY
CHECK
M1332011300074
1. Raise the vehicle.
2. Remove the stabilizer link from the lower arm.
3. Move the lower arm up and down with your hands to check for an excessive play in the axial
direction of the ball joint. If there is an excessive
play, replace the lower arm assembly.
LOWER ARM BALL JOINT COVER
CHECK
M1332008600321
1. Press the lower arm ball joint cover with your finger to check that there are no cracks or
damage in the lower arm ball joint cover.
2. If the lower arm ball joint cover is cracked or damaged, replace the lower arm assembly.
NOTE: If the lower arm ball joint cover is cracked
or damaged, it is possible that there may also be
damage to the ball joint.
