REMOVAL
NOTICE:
The hub bearing could be damaged if it is subjected
to the vehicle weight, such as when moving the ve-
hicle with the drive shaft removed.
Therefore, if it is absolutely necessary to place the ve-
hicle weight on the hub bearing, first support it with
the SST.
SST 09608–16042 (09608–02021, 09608–02041)
w/ ABS:
After disconnecting the drive shaft from the axle hub,
work carefully so as not to damage the ABS speed
sensor rotor serration on the drive shaft.
