4) Install DOJ on transmission spindle and drive spring pin
into place.
CAUTION:
Always use a new spring pin.
5) Connect transverse link to housing.
Tightening torque (self-locking nut):
49±10 N⋅m (5.0±1.0 kg-m, 36±7 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
Use a new self-locking nut.
6) Install stabilizer bracket.
7) While depressing brake pedal, tighten axle nut to the
specified torque.
Tightening torque:
186±20 N⋅m (19±2 kg-m, 137±14 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
Use a new axle nut.
Always tighten axle nut before installing wheel on
vehicle. If wheel is installed and comes in contact with
ground when axle nut is loose, wheel bearings may be
damaged.
Be sure to tighten axle nut to specified torque. Do
not overtighten it as this may damage wheel bearing.
8) After tightening axle nut, lock it securely.

10. Wheel Balancing
1) Proper wheel balance may be lost if the tire is repaired
or if it wears. Check the tire for dynamic balance, and repair
as necessary.
2) To check for dynamic balance, use a dynamic balancer.
Drive in the balance weight on both the top and rear sides
of the rim.
3) Some types of balancer can cause damage to the
wheel. Use an appropriate balancer when adjusting the
wheel balance.
4) Use genuine balance weights.
Service limit: A
Weight for steel wheel;
1.6—2.0 mm (0.063—0.079 in)
Weight for aluminum wheel;
4.6—5.4 mm (0.181—0.213 in)
CAUTION:
55 g (1.94 oz) weight used with aluminum wheel is
not available.
Balance weights are available for use with any of 14-
to 15-inch wheels.
11. Installation of Wheel Assembly to
Vehicle
1) Attach the wheel to the hub by aligning the wheel bolt
hole with the hub bolt.
2) Temporarily attach the wheel nuts to the hub bolts. (In
the case of aluminum wheel, use SUBARU genuine wheel
nut for aluminum wheel.)
3) Manually tighten the nuts making sure the wheel hub
hole is aligned correctly to the guide portion of hub.
4) Tighten the wheel nuts in a diagonal selection to the
specified torque. Use a wheel nut wrench.
Wheel nut tightening torque:
88±10 N⋅m (9±1 kg-m, 65±7 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
Tighten the wheel nuts in two or three steps by
gradually increasing the torque and working
diagonally, until the specified torque is reached. For
drum brake models, excess tightening of wheel nuts
may cause wheels to “judder”.
Do not depress the wrench with a foot; Always use
both hands when tightening.
Make sure the bolt, nut and the nut seating surface
of the wheel are free from oils.
5) If a wheel is removed for replacement or for repair of a
puncture, retighten the wheel nuts to the specified torque
after running 1,000 km (600 miles).
