INSPECTION OF BALL JOINTS
1. INSPECT BALL JOINTS FOR EXCESSIVE LOOSENESS
(d Jack up the tront of the vehicle and place a wooden
block with a height of 18O - 2OO mm (7.09 - 7.87
in.) under one front tire.
(d Lower the jack until there is about half a load on the

safety.
(c) Make sure the front wheels are in a straightforward
position and block them with chocks.
(d) Move the lower arm up and down and check that the
balljoint has no excessive play.
Maximum balljoint vertical play: 0 mm (0 in.l
2. INSPECT BALL JOINT DUST COVERS FOR DAMAGE
OR DETERIORATION
lf a problem is found, replace the balljoint assembly.

3. INSPECT BALL JOINT FOR ROTATION CONDITION
(d Remove the balljoint. (See page FA-29)
(b) As shown in the figure, flip the ball joint stud back
and forth 5 times before installing the nut
(d Using a torque gauge, turn the nut continuously one
turn each 2-4 seconds and take the torque reading
on the 5th turn.
Torque {turning}:
I - 25 kg-cm 17 - 21 in.-lb, 0.8 - 2'4 N'ml
lf the torque is not within specification, replace the ball
ioint.
