FRONT WHEEL HUB AND KNUCKLE

4. Use a drift (SST) and a press to install wheel hub.
5. As shown in the figure, apply a load of 34,324 – 49,033 N
(3500 – 5,000 kg, 7718 – 11,025 lb). Rotate in forward and
reverse directions 10 times each to ensure a good fit.
6. At a rotation speed of 10±2 rpm, place a spring balance at the
point where strut is joined (upper-side bolt hole). Measure rotat-
ing torque. Refer to FA X - 1 9 , "
Wheel Bearing" .
NOTE:
If a load of 34,300 – 49,033 N (3,500 – 5,000 kg, 7718 – 11,025 lb) cannot be applied, carry out the fol-
lowing actions.

Assemble drive shaft and tighten wheel hub lock nuts to specified torque. Then rotate in forward and
reverse direction 10 times each to ensure a good fit.

At a rotation speed of 10±2 rpm, place a spring balance on hub bolt to measure torque. Rotating torque : 1.645 N·m (0.17 kg-m, 15 in-lb) or
less
Spring balance
reading: 10.6 N (1.1 kg, 2.4 lb) or less
Rotation torque : 2.215 N·m (0.22 kg-m, 19 in-lb) or less

On-vehicle Inspection and ServiceEDS0034G
Make sure that the mounting conditions (looseness, backlash) of each component and component status
(wear, damage) are normal.
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION

Move wheel hub in the axial direction by hand. Make sure there is no looseness of wheel bearing.

Rotate wheel hub and make sure that is no unusual noise or other irregular conditions. If there are any
irregular conditions, replace wheel bearing.
Removal and InstallationEDS0034H
COMPONENT
REMOVAL
1. Remove tire from the vehicle with power tool.
2. Remove wheel sensor from axle housing. Refer to BRC-46, "

CAUTION:
Do not pull on wheel sensor harness.
3. Remove torque member fixing bolts with power tool. Hang it in a place where it will not interfere with work.
Refer to BR-32, "
REAR DISC BRAKE" .
NOTE:
Avoid depressing brake pedal while brake caliper is removed.
4. Remove disc rotor.
5. Remove anchor block mounting nuts, and then remove anchor block and back plate from axle housing.
6. Remove fixing bolts and nuts, and then remove strut from axle housing. Refer to RSU-8, "
COIL SPRING
AND STRUT" .
7. Remove nut and bolt from axle housing side of radius rod. Refer to RSU-12, "
RADIUS ROD" .
8. Remove fixing bolt, washer and nut from axle housing side of front and rear parallel links. Remove axle
housing from vehicle.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Check components for deformation, cracks and other damage. Replace if there.Axial end play : 0.05 mm (0.002 in) or less

WHEEL HUB (2WD)

INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Check for deformity, cracks and damage of each parts, replace if there are.
Wheel Hub
Check wheel hub for deformation, cracks, and other damage. If any irregular conditions are found, replace if
there are.
Axle Housing
Inspect axle housing for deformation, cracks, and other damage. If any irregular conditions are found, replace
axle housing.
Snap Ring
Check snap ring for wear or other damage. If any irregular conditions are found, replace snap ring.
ASSEMBLY
1. Using a flat-bladed screwdriver or similar tool, install snap ring securely to the ditch of axle housing inner
side.
2. Using a drift [SST] to press wheel bearing securely from axle
housing inner side as far as it will go.
NOTE:

Do not reuse wheel bearing.

Final press load guideline 49,033 N (5,000 kg, 11,000 lb)
3. Using a drift [SST] to press wheel hub onto axle housing.
NOTE:
Final press load guideline 49,033 N (5,000 kg, 11,000 lb).
4. Set sensor rotor to axle housing.
NOTE:
Do not reuse sensor rotor.
5. Install lock nut to axle housing.
6. After installation of lock nut, be sure to perform caulking. Refer
to figure for caulking procedure.
INSPECTION AFTER ASSEMBLY
1. With wheel hub pressed into wheel bearing, apply 49,030 N (5,000 kg, 11,025 lb) to wheel hub and rotate
both clockwise and counterclockwise 10 times to minimize resistance.
2. At a rotating speed of 8 – 12 rpm, place a spring balance at the point where strut is joined (upper side
bolt hole). Measure rotating torque.
