Rear Axle and Rear Suspension Parts
Check rear axle and rear suspension parts for excessive play, wear
or damage.
+Shake each rear wheel to check for excessive play.
+Retighten all nuts and bolts to the speci®ed torque.
Tightening torque:
Refer to REAR SUSPENSION, RA-12.
+Check shock absorber for oil leakage or other damage.
+Check shock absorber bushing for excessive wear or other
damage.

Removal
CAUTION:
+Before removing the rear axle, disconnect the ABS wheel
sensor from the assembly. Then move it away from the
axle. Failure to do so may result in damage to the sensor
wires and the sensor becoming inoperative.
+Wheel bearing does not require maintenance.
+If growling noise is emitted from wheel bearing during
operation, replace wheel bearing assembly.
+If the wheel bearing assembly is removed, it must be renewed.
The old assembly must not be re-used.
1. Disconnect parking brake cable and brake tube.
2. Remove nuts securing wheel bearing cage with baffle plate.
3. Draw out axle shaft with Tool.
When drawing out axle shaft, be careful not to damage oil seal.
4. Remove O-ring.
5. Remove oil seal with a screwdriver.
Do not reuse oil seal once it is removed.
Always install new one.
6. Remove ABS sensor rotor. Ð Models with ABS Ð

6. Install a new wheel bearing lock washer.
7. Tighten wheel bearing lock nut to speci®ed torque.
: 441 - 490 Nzm (45 - 50 kg-m, 325 - 362 ft-lb)
Be sure to bend bearing lock washer up.
8. Check wheel bearing preload.
a. Turn bearing cage (with respect to axle shaft) two or three
times. It must turn smoothly.
b. Attach spring gauge to bearing cage bolt (as shown at left) and
pull it at a speed of 10 rpm to measure preload.
Spring gauge indication:
8.8 - 42.2 N (0.9 - 4.3 kg, 2.0 - 9.5 lb)
9. Install new oil seal to rear axle housing using a suitable tool.
After installing new oil seal, coat sealing lip with multi-purpose
grease.
10. Install new O-ring to rear axle housing.
11. Press ABS sensor rotor onto axle shaft until it contacts wheel
bearing lock nut.
12. Install axle shafts in rear axle housing.
Be careful not to damage oil seal.

CAUTION:
+Use ¯are nut wrench when removing or installing brake
tubes.
+Before removing the rear suspension assembly, discon-
nect the ABS wheel sensor from the assembly. Then move
it away from the rear suspension assembly. Failure to do
so may result in damage to the sensor wires and the sen-
sor becoming inoperative.

+Remove upper links and lower links from body.
+Remove panhard rod from body.
+Disconnect rear end of propeller shaft. Refer to PD section.
+Remove upper end nuts of shock absorber.
