      Note

      Stake the rear axle shaft nut after inspecting for looseness and runout in the following steps.

    4. Remove the 5 hub nuts and the rear disc.

  3. INSPECT REAR AXLE HUB BEARING LOOSENESS


    1. A01NFYH

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

      Maximum looseness
      0 mm (0 in.)

      Note


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

      • Keep the magnet of the dial indicator away from the rear axle hub and bearing assembly.

      Tech Tips

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

  4. INSPECT REAR AXLE HUB RUNOUT


    1. A01NEHG

      0.08 mm (0.00314 in.)

      Note


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

      • Keep the magnet of the dial indicator away from the rear axle hub and bearing assembly.

      Note


      • Prevent foreign matter from attaching to the sensor tip.

      • Do not file the rear speed sensor installation hole or surface because the gap between the magnet rotor and rear speed sensor is important.

      • Do not twist or apply excessive force to the front speed sensor during installation to prevent it from being damaged.

      • Install the rear speed sensor without twisting it.

  6. INSTALL REAR DISC
