DISASSEMBLY

CAUTION: Do not disassemble if wheel bearing has no trouble.





1. Using a drift (SST) and a puller (suitable tool), press wheel hub out to remove from wheel bearing.





2. Using a drift (SST) and a puller (suitable tool), press wheel bearing outer side inner race out to remove from wheel hub.

INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Check for deformity, cracks and damage of each parts, replace if necessary.

Wheel Hub
Inspect wheel hub for deformation, cracks, and other damage. If any irregular conditions are found, replace wheel hub.

Steering Knuckle
Inspect steering knuckle for deformation, cracks, and other damage. If any irregular conditions are found, replace steering knuckle.

Splash Guard
Inspect splash guard for deformation, cracks, and other damage. If any irregular conditions are found, replace splash guard.

ASSEMBLY





1. Press fit a wheel bearing into wheel hub with a drift (SST).

CAUTION:
^ Do not reuse wheel bearing.
^ Press fit a drift (SST) while holding it against wheel bearing inner side inner race.
^ When installing wheel bearing, do not deformation dust shield.

NOTE: Final press load guideline 49,033 N (5,000 kgf, 11,000 lbs.)





2. Attach spring scale in the position shown in illustration and pull at a rate of 10 ± 2 rpm to measure rotating torque.
Standard value
Rotating torque: Less than 2.296 Nm (0.23 kgf-m, 20 inch lbs.)
Spring scale reading: Less than 42.9 N (4.4 kgf, 9.7 lbs.)
3. Install splash guard and wheel hub and bearing assembly to steering knuckle.
