10. Installation of Wheel
Assembly to Vehicle
1) Attach the wheel to the hub by aligning the
wheel bolt hole with the hub bolt.
2) Temporarily attach the wheel nuts to the hub
bolts. (In the case of aluminum wheel, use
SUBARU genuine wheel nut for aluminum wheel.)
3) Manually tighten the nuts making sure the
wheel hub hole is aligned correctly to the guide
portion of hub.
4) Tighten the wheel nuts in a diagonal selection
to the specified torque. Use a wheel nut wrench.
Wheel nut tightening torque:
88
±10 N´m (9±1 kg-m, 65±7 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
ITighten the wheel nuts in two or three steps
by gradually increasing the torque and working
diagonally, until the specified torque is
reached. For drum brake models, excess tight-
ening of wheel nuts may cause wheels to ªjud-
derº.
IDo not depress the wrench with a foot;
Always use both hands when tightening.
IMake sure the bolt, nut and the nut seating
surface of the wheel are free from oils.
5) If a wheel is removed for replacement or for
repair of a puncture, retighten the wheel nuts to the
specified torque after running 1,000 km (600
miles).
11. Tire Rotation
If tires are maintained at the same positions for a
long period of time, uneven wear results.
Therefore, they should be periodically rotated.
This lengthens service life of tires.
CAUTION:
When rotating tires, replace unevenly worn or
damaged tires with new ones.

After installing boot, fold back boot flange to the
extent that large clip can not be seen.

1) If leak point is other than a, b, c, or d, perform
check step 5) in ªOIL LEAK CHECK PROCEDURE
AND REPLACEMENT PARTSº before dismounting
gearbox from vehicle. If
gearbox is dismounted without confirming where
the leak is, it must be mounted again to locate the
leak point.
2) Even if the location of the leak can be easily
found by observing the leaking condition, it is nec-
essary to thoroughly remove the oil from the sus-
pected portion and turn the steering wheel from
lock to lock about 30 to 40 times with engine
running, then make comparison of the suspected
portion between immediately after and several
hours after this operation.
3) Before starting oil leak repair work, be sure to
clean the gearbox, hoses, pipes, and surrounding
parts. After completing repair work, clean these
areas again.
2. OIL LEAK CHECK PROCEDURE AND
REPLACEMENT PARTS
NOTE:
Parts requiring replacement are described in the
smallest unit of spare parts including damaged
parts and spare parts damaged. In actual disas-sembly work, accidental damage as well as inevi-
table damage to some related parts must be taken
into account, and spare parts for them must also
be prepared. However, it is essential to pinpoint the
cause of trouble, and limit the number of replace-
ment parts as much as possible.
1) Leakage from ªaº
The oil seal is damaged. Replace valve assembly
with a new one.
2) Leakage from ªbº
The torsion bar O-ring is damaged. Replace valve
assembly with a new one.
3) Leakage from ªcº
The oil seal is damaged. Replace valve assembly
with a new one.
4) Leakage from ªdº
The pipe is damaged. Replace the faulty pipe or
O-ring.
5) If leak is other than a, b, c, or d, and if oil is
leaking from the gearbox, move the right and left
boots toward tie-rod end side, respectively, with the
gearbox mounted to the vehicle, and remove oil
from the surrounding portions. Then, turn the steer-
ing wheel from lock to lock 30 to 40 times with the
engine running, then make comparison of the
leaked portion immediately after and several hours
after this operation.
