Front Suspension PartsEES002KM
Check front suspension parts for excessive play, cracks, wear and
other damage.
lShake each front wheel to check for excessive play.
If looseness is noted, inspect wheel bearing end play, then
check ball joint end play. Refer toFSU-15, "
Inspection".
lMake sure that the cotter pin is inserted in drive shaft end (4WD
models only).
lRetighten all nuts and bolts to the specified torque.
lCheck shock absorber for oil leakage and other damage.
lCheck suspension ball joint for grease leakage and ball joint
dust cover for cracks and other damage.
Front Wheel AlignmentEES002KN
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
WARNING:
Always adjust the alignment with the vehicle on a flat surface.
NOTE:
If alignment is out of specification, inspect and replace any damaged or worn rear suspension parts before
making any adjustments.
1. Check and adjust the wheel alignment with the vehicle under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions”
means that the fuel, coolant, and lubricant are full; and that the spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in
their designated positions.
2. Check the tires for incorrect air pressure and excessive wear.
3. Check the wheels for run out and damage. Refer toWT-3, "
Inspection".
4. Check the wheel bearing axial end play. Refer toFA X - 5 , "
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION".
5. Check the shock absorbers for leaks or damage.
6. Check each mounting point of the suspension components for any excessive looseness or damage.
7. Check each link, arm, and the rear suspension member for any damage.
8. Check the vehicle height. Refer toFSU-21, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1)". Suspension component torques : Refer toFSU-6,
"Components".SMA525A

lSwing stabilizer bar down, repositioning it out of the way to access shock absorber lower mount.
4. Remove the shock absorber lower bolt and nut.
5. Remove the three shock absorber upper mounting nuts.
6. Remove the coil spring and shock absorber assembly.
lTurn steering knuckle out to gain enough clearance for
removal.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
lThe step in the strut assembly lower seat faces outside of vehicle.
lTighten all nuts and bolts to specification. Refer toFSU-6, "Components".
lWhen installing wheel and tire, refer toWT-5, "Rotation".
Disassembly and AssemblyEES002KP
DISASSEMBLY
1. Install strut attachment to strut and fix it in a vise.
CAUTION:
When installing strut attachment, wrap a shop cloth around
strut to protect it from damage.
2. Slightly loosen piston rod lock nut.
WARNING:
Do not remove piston rod lock nut completely. If it is
removed completely, coil spring jumps out and may cause
serious damage or injury.
3. Compress the spring using commercial service tool until the
shock absorber mounting insulator can be turned by hand.
WARNING:
Make sure that the pawls of the two spring compressors are firmly hooked on the spring. The
spring compressors must be tightened alternately and evenly so as not to tilt the spring.
4. Remove the piston rod lock nut.
lDiscard the piston rod lock nut, use a new nut for assembly.
5. Remove the components from the shock absorber.
lKeep the spring compressed in the commercial service tool if
reusing it for assembly.

WARNING:
lNever get under the vehicle while it is supported only by the jack. Always use safety stands to
support the frame when you have to get under the vehicle.
lPlace wheel chocks at both front and back of the wheels on the ground.
CAUTION:
lAll applicable local laws regarding the towing operation must be obeyed.
lIt is necessary to use proper towing equipment to avoid possible damage during towing opera-
tion. Towing is in accordance with Towing Procedure Manual at dealer.
lAlways attach safety chains before towing.
lWhen towing, make sure that the transmission, steering system and powertrain are in good order.
If any unit is damaged, dollies must be used.
lNever tow an automatic transmission model from the rear
(i.e., backward) with four wheels on the ground as this may
cause serious and expensive damage to the transmission.
4X2 MODEL
NISSAN does not recommend towing automatic transmission
equipped vehicles with the drive wheels on the ground.
CAUTION:
lWhen towing with the front wheels on the ground: Turn the
ignition key to the OFF position and move the transmission
selector lever to N (neutral) position, turn the ignition key to
OFF position and secure the steering wheel in a straight
ahead position with a rope or similar device. Never place
the ignition key in the LOCK position. This will result in
damage to the steering lock mechanism.
Observe the following restricted towing speeds and distances.
