FRONT LOWER SUSPENSION ARM INSTALLATION

PROCEDURE


  1. TEMPORARILY TIGHTEN FRONT LOWER NO. 1 SUSPENSION ARM SUB-ASSEMBLY LH (for 2AR-FE)


    1. Temporarily install the front lower No. 1 suspension arm sub-assembly LH to the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly with the 2 bolts and nut.

      Note

      Because the nut has its own stopper, do not turn the nut. Tighten the bolt with the nut secured.

  2. TEMPORARILY TIGHTEN FRONT LOWER NO. 1 SUSPENSION ARM SUB-ASSEMBLY RH (for 2AR-FE)

    Tech Tips

    Perform the same procedure as for the LH side.

  3. INSTALL FRONT LOWER NO. 1 SUSPENSION ARM SUB-ASSEMBLY LH (for 2GR-FKS)

    Tech Tips

    As the bolt on the front of the front lower No. 1 suspension arm sub-assembly LH cannot be fully tightened on the vehicle, fully tighten the bolt before the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly is installed to the vehicle.


    1. Temporarily install the front lower No. 1 suspension arm sub-assembly LH to the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly with the 2 bolts and nut.

      Note

      Because the nut has its own stopper, do not turn the nut. Tighten the bolt with the nut secured.

    2. Position the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly on a level surface.

    3. Using a vernier caliper, measure height *1 and *2.

      B006PO6C01

      Note

      Perform this procedure after installing the front suspension member front brace LH and front suspension member front brace RH.

    4. Check that height *2 is lower than *1 by 10 mm.

    5. Position the front lower No. 1 suspension arm sub-assembly LH so that height *3 is the same as *1.

    6. Tighten the bolt (A).

      Torque:
      233 N*m  { 2376 kgf*cm, 172 ft.*lbf }

  4. TEMPORARILY TIGHTEN FRONT LOWER NO. 1 SUSPENSION ARM SUB-ASSEMBLY RH (for 2GR-FKS)


    1. Temporarily install the front lower No. 1 suspension arm sub-assembly RH to the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly with the 2 bolts and nut.

      Note

      Because the nut has its own stopper, do not turn the nut. Tighten the bolt with the nut secured.

  6. FULLY TIGHTEN FRONT LOWER NO. 1 SUSPENSION ARM SUB-ASSEMBLY LH (for 2AR-FE)


    1. B006NJQC03
      *a Torque Wrench Fulcrum Length
      B006LKF Turn

      Using SST, fully tighten the bolt (A).

      SST
      09961-01270
      Torque:
      Specified tightening torque
      233 N*m  { 2376 kgf*cm, 172 ft.*lbf }

      Note

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

      Tech Tips


      • Calculate the torque wrench reading when changing the fulcrum length of the torque wrench.

      • When using SST (fulcrum length of 200 mm (7.87 in.)) + torque wrench (fulcrum length of 600 mm (1.97 ft.)):

        175 N*m (1785 kgf*cm, 129 ft.*lbf)

    2. Fully tighten the bolt (B).

      Torque:
      214 N*m  { 2182 kgf*cm, 158 ft.*lbf }

      Note

      Because the nut has its own stopper, do not turn the nut. Tighten the bolt with the nut secured.
