*a 1 mm (0.0394 in.)

Install 2 spacers (SST spacer B) as shown in the illustration.

SST

09960-20010 ( 09961-02060 )
Note
- Be sure to install SST to prevent the spacer of the rear axle carrier sub-assembly from coming off.
- Make sure that the clearance between the rear axle assembly and spacers (SST spacer B) is 1 mm (0.0394 in.) or more to prevent damage to SST.

Using SST, separate the rear steering tie rod assembly LH from the rear axle carrier sub-assembly as shown in the illustration.

SST: 09960-20010 ( 09961-02010 )

*a	Nut	*b	Spacer
*c	Tie string without any slack	*d	Place wrench here
	Turn		Molybdenum Grease

CAUTION:

Apply molybdenum grease to the threads and the tip of SST bolt.

Note

Install SST so that (A) and (B) shown in the illustration are parallel. Otherwise, the ball joint dust cover may be damaged.
Be sure to place the wrench on the part shown in the illustration.
Be sure to tighten the string firmly to secure SST to the rear upper control arm assembly to prevent SST from falling off.
Make sure that SST is securely positioned on the spacer.
Do not damage the rear steering tie rod assembly LH ball joint dust cover.
If the spacer has come off, replace the rear axle carrier sub-assembly and rear steering link assembly with a new one.
