side bushing.
SST 09950−60010 (09951−00360),
09950−70010 (09951−07150)
HINT:
When installing the bushing to the spindle, make sure the flat
portion of the bushing is aligned with the spindle groove, as
shown in the illustration.
(b) Using SST and a press, install a new needle roller bear-
ing, as shown in the illustration.
SST 09950−60010 (09951−00360),
09950−70010 (09951−07150)
HINT:
Bearing must be installed with flat side which has I.D. and
part number facing outward.
Press the bearing in until the top surface of the bearing is
in approx. 2 − 3 mm (0.08 − 0.12 in.) inside the knuckle
surface.
(c) Using SST and a press, install a new thrust bushing.
SST 09950−60010 (09951−00500),
