id0311008004a1

Caution

•  Performing the following procedures without first removing the ABS wheel-speed sensor may possibly cause an open circuit in the wiring harness if it is pulled by mistake. Before performing the following procedures, disconnect the ABS wheel-speed sensor connector (axle side) and fix the wiring harness to an appropriate place where it will not be pulled by mistake while servicing the vehicle.

1.  Remove in the order indicated in the table.

2.  Install in the reverse order of removal.

3.  After installation, inspect the front wheel alignment and adjust it if necessary. (See FRONT WHEEL ALIGNMENT.)

Caution

•  When tightening section A, tighten section B securely because the engagement of the SST tab is shallow and it can come off easily.

3.  Tighten SST section A until the space between the bearing inner race and wheel hub component is 1—2 mm {0.04—0.07 in}.
