Tire Inspection and Rotation
1) Check tires for uneven or excessive wear, or damage.
If defective, replace.
Refer to Section 3 for details.
2) Check inflating pressure of each tire and adjust pressure to
specification as necessary.
Refer to Section 3F for details.
NOTE:
Tire inflation pressure should be checked when tires are
cool.
Specified tire inflation pressure should be found on tire
placard or in owner's manual which came with the vehicle.
3) Rotate tires.
For details, refer to Section 3F.

REAR SUSPENSION
NOTE:
All suspension fasteners are an important attaching part in that it could affect the performance of vital
parts and systems, and / or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of the
same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a replace-
ment part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reas-
sembly to assure proper retention of this part.
Never attempt to heat, quench or straighten any suspension part. Replace it with a new part, or damage
to the part may result.

3E-2 REAR SUSPENSION
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Rear suspension is 5 link type of rigid axle which consists of coil springs, rear axle, shock absorbers, upper rods,
lower rods and lateral rod.
The lower rod and upper rod are connected with the axle and body by using bushes so that axle moves up and
down with bushes as their supporting points.
The shock absorber is installed between the body and axle to absorb up-and-down movement of the vehicle body.

REAR SUSPENSION FASTENERS
Check each bolt and nut fastening suspension parts for tightness.
Tighten loose one, if any, to specified torque, referring to ªTIGHT-
ENING TORQUE SPECIFICATIONSº of this section.
BEARING RETAINER AND AXLE SHAFT
INNER OIL SEAL CHECK
When brake drum has been removed, check inside of brake drum
for gear oil leakage.
Also, check backside of brake back plate for oil leakage.
If oil leakage is found, replace defective oil seal.
Whenever it is possible to check oil seal during disassembly,
check its lip for wear.
If oil leakage or worn lip is found, replace defective oil seal.
WHEEL DISC, NUT & BEARING CHECK
Inspect each wheel disc for dents, distortion and cracks. A disc
in badly damaged condition must be replaced.
Check wheel hub nuts for tightness and retighten to specification
as necessary.
Tightening Torque
(a): 100 N
.m (10.0 kg-m, 72.5 lb-ft)
Check wheel bearings for wear. When measuring thrust play, ap-
ply a dial gauge to axle shaft center after removing wheel center
cap from wheel.
Thrust play limit
Rear0.8 mm (0.03 in.)
When measurement exceeds limit, replace bearing.
By rotating wheel actually, check wheel bearing for noise and
smooth rotation. If it is defective, replace bearing.

4) Remove wheel speed sensor from rear axle housing (if
equipped with ABS).
CAUTION:
Do not pull wire harness or twist more than necessary
when removing rear wheel speed sensor.
Do not cause damage to surface of rear wheel speed
sensor or pole piece and do not allow dust, etc. to enter
its installation hole.
5) Check to ensure that there is clearance between rear wheel
bearing retainer and parking brake shoe lever. If no clearance
is found, loosen cable locking nut further to obtain clearance.
6) Using special tools (B) & (C) indicated below, draw out axle
shaft.
NOTE:
Use care not to pull brake back plate along with shaft.
CAUTION:
Pull out axle shaft using care so that upper and lower
brake struts and parking cable are not caught.
