FRONT LOWER SUSPENSION ARM(for RH Side) INSTALLATION

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Tip:

For models with a 1WW or 1ND-TV engine, the front lower No. 1 suspension arm sub-assembly RH can be installed without removing the front suspension crossmember sub-assembly.

PROCEDURE

  1. TEMPORARILY TIGHTEN FRONT LOWER NO. 1 SUSPENSION ARM SUB-ASSEMBLY RH (except 1WW, 1ND-TV)

  2. TEMPORARILY TIGHTEN FRONT LOWER NO. 1 SUSPENSION ARM SUB-ASSEMBLY RH (for 1WW, 1ND-TV)

    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.

  3. CONNECT FRONT LOWER NO. 1 SUSPENSION ARM SUB-ASSEMBLY RH (for 1WW, 1ND-TV)

    1. Connect the front lower No. 1 suspension arm sub-assembly RH to the front lower ball joint assembly with the bolt and 2 nuts.
