FRONT AXLE HUB INSTALLATION

Tech Tips


  • Use the same procedure for the RH side and LH side.

  • The procedure listed below is for the LH side.


  1. INSTALL FRONT AXLE HUB SUB-ASSEMBLY


    1. A01610D

      Temporarily install the front axle hub sub-assembly and front disc brake dust cover with the 4 bolts.

    2. A0162FYE01

      Using SST and a socket wrench (17 mm), fully tighten the 4 bolts.

      SST
      09961-00950
      Torque:
      without SST
      69 N*m  { 700 kgf*cm, 51 ft.*lbf }
      with SST
      51 N*m  { 517 kgf*cm, 37 ft.*lbf }

      Note


      • Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 425 mm (16.73 in.).

      • This torque value is effective when SST is parallel to the torque wrench.

  2. INSPECT FRONT AXLE HUB BEARING LOOSENESS


    1. A015ZDL

      Using a dial indicator, check for looseness near the center of the front axle hub.

      Maximum looseness
      0.05 mm (0.00196 in.)

      Note

      Ensure that the dial indicator is perpendicular to the measurement surface.

      If the looseness exceeds the maximum, replace the front axle hub and bearing assembly.

  3. INSPECT FRONT AXLE HUB RUNOUT


    1. A0160CH

      Using a dial indicator, check for runout on the surface of the axle hub outside the hub bolt.

      Maximum runout
      0.05 mm (0.00196 in.)

      Note

      Ensure that the dial indicator is set perpendicular to the measurement surface.

      If the runout exceeds the maximum, replace the front axle hub and bearing assembly.

  4. INSTALL FRONT DISC


    1. A01603AE01

      Align the matchmarks of the disc and axle hub, and install the front disc.

      Note

      When replacing the disc with a new one, select the installation position where the front disc has minimal runout.

  5. INSTALL FRONT DISC BRAKE CYLINDER ASSEMBLY


    1. A015YW2

      Install the front disc brake cylinder assembly with the 2 bolts.

      Torque:
      78 N*m  { 795 kgf*cm, 58 ft.*lbf }

      Note

      Do not twist the brake hose when installing the front disc brake cylinder assembly.

  6. CONNECT FRONT SPEED SENSOR WIRE


    1. A015YNBE03

      Connect the front speed sensor wire to the front speed sensor.

      Note

      Do not twist the sensor wire.

  7. INSTALL FRONT WHEEL

    Torque:
    103 N*m  { 1050 kgf*cm, 76 ft.*lbf }

  8. CHECK FOR SPEED SENSOR SIGNAL
