NOTE:
All wheel fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital
parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of the
same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a replace-
ment part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reas-
sembly to assure proper retention of all parts.
There is to be no welding as it may result in extensive damage and weakening of the metal.

WHEEL
REMOVAL
1) Loosen wheel nuts by approximately 180° (half a rotation).
2) Hoist vehicle.
3) Remove wheel.
INSTALLATION
For installation, reverse removal procedure, noting the followings.
Wheel nuts must be tightened in sequence and to proper
torque to avoid bending wheel or brake disc.
Tightening order
: “A”-“B”-“C”-“D”
Tightening torque
Wheel nut (a) : 85 N·m (8.5 kg-m, 61.5 lb-ft) CAUTION:
Never use heat to loosen tight wheel because application
of heat to wheel can shorten life of wheel and damage
wheel bearings.
NOTE:
Before installing wheels, remove any build-up of corro-
sion on wheel mounting surface and brake disc mount-
ing surface by scraping and wire brushing. Installing
wheels without good metal-to-metal contact at mounting
surfaces can cause wheel nuts to loosen, which can later
allow a wheel to come off while vehicle is moving.
