Knuckle/Hub Replacement
Note these items during replacement:
. Replace the selt-locking nuts after removal.
. The vehicle should be on the ground before any bolts or nuts connected to rubber mounts or bushings are tightened.
. Torque the castle nuts to the lower torque specifications, then tighten them only far enough to align the slots with each
pin hole. Do not align the nuts by loosening.
o Use only genuine Honda wheel weights for aluminum wheels. Non'genuine wheel weights may corrode and damage
the aluminum wheels.
. Onthealuminum wheels, remove the center cap from the inside of the wheel after removing the wheel.
. Before installing the brake disc, clean the mating surfaces of the front hub and brake disc.
. Before installing the wheel. clean the mating surfaces ofthe brake disc and wheel.
. Wipe off the grease before tightening the nuts at the balljoints.
