(g) Check the distance between top surface of axle housing
and the lock nut.
Standard distance:
−0.2 − 0.9 mm (−0.0079 − 0.0354 in.)
If the distance is greater than the specification, reassemble the
lock nut plate.
(h) Check that the hub with disc rotates smoothly and hub has no axial play.
5. INSTALL BEARING LOCK NUT SCREW
Tighten the 2 lock nut screws. Torque: 5.4 N·m (55 kgf·cm, 48 in.·lbf)
6. CONNECT ABS SPEED SENSOR
Connect the ABS speed sensor install the bolt.
Torque: 18 N·m (185 kgf·cm, 13 ft·lbf)
7. INSTALL BRAKE CALIPER (See page BR−38 )
8. INSTALL REAR AXLE SHAFT (See page SA−65 )
9. INSTALL REAR WHEEL Torque:
Steel wheel: 147 N·m (1,500 kgf·cm, 109 ft·lbf)
Aluminum wheel: 103 N·m (1,050 kgf·cm, 76 ft·lbf)
10. CHECK ABS SPEED SENSOR SIGNAL (See page DI−190 )
