REMOVALNJSU0031S01CAUTION:
+Before removing the rear suspension assembly, discon-
nect the ABS wheel sensor from the assembly. Failure to
do so may result in damage to the sensor wires and the
sensor becoming inoperative.
+Remove suspension assembly.
1. Disconnect brake hydraulic lines and parking brake cable at
toggle lever. (Models with drum brakes.)
+Drain brake fluid before disconnecting brake lines.
2. Disconnect parking brake cable from caliper and remove brake
caliper and rotor. (Models with disc brakes.)
Suspend caliper assembly with wire so as not to stretch
brake hose.
Be careful not to depress brake pedal, or piston will pop
out.
Make sure brake hose is not twisted.
3. Using a transmission jack, raise torsion beam a little, and
remove nuts and bolts from the trailing arm, shock absorber
assembly (lower side) and lateral link (Body side).
4. Lower transmission jack, and remove suspension.
5. Remove strut securing nuts (upper side). Then pull out strut
assembly.
SRA697A
INSTALLATIONNJSU0031S02+Install suspension assembly.
CAUTION:
Refill with new brake fluid ªDOT 4º.
Never reuse drained brake fluid.
1. Attach torsion beam, at trailing arm and lateral link, to vehicle.
Do not tighten bolts at this time.
SRA698A
2. Using a transmission jack, place lateral link and control rod
horizontally against torsion beam. Tighten lateral link on
vehicle.
3. Attach shock absorber assembly to vehicle. Then tighten the
lower side of shock absorber assembly.
4. Lower torsion beam to fully extended position. Remove trans-
mission jack and tighten torsion beam, at trailing arm, to speci-
fied torque. Refer to SU-20.
5. Install brake hydraulic lines and tighten flare nuts.
: 15 - 18 N´m (1.5 - 1.8 kg-m, 11 - 13 ft-lb)
6. Install ABS wheel sensor.
Coil Spring and Shock Absorber
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATIONNJSU0032Remove shock absorber upper and lower fixing nuts.
Do not remove piston rod lock nut on vehicle.

PistonNJBR0033S0102CAUTION:
Piston sliding surface is plated. Do not polish with emery
paper even if rust or foreign materials are stuck to sliding
surface.
Check piston for score, rust, wear, damage or presence of foreign
materials. Replace if any of the above conditions are observed.
Slide Pin, Pin Bolt and Pin BootNJBR0033S0103Check for wear, cracks or other damage. Replace if any of the
above conditions are observed.

RunoutNJBR0033S02021. Secure rotor to wheel hub with at least two nuts (M12 x 1.25).
2. Check runout using a dial indicator.
Make sure that wheel bearing axial end play is within the
specifications before measuring. Refer to AX section
(ªFront Wheel Bearingº, ªON-VEHICLE SERVICEº).
Maximum runout:
0.07 mm (0.0028 in)
3. If the runout is out of specification, find minimum runout posi-
tion as follows:
a. Remove nuts and rotor from wheel hub.
b. Shift the rotor one hole and secure rotor to wheel hub with
nuts.
c. Measure runout.
d. Repeat steps a. to c. so that minimum runout position can be
found.
4. If the runout is still out of specification, turn rotor with on-car
brake lathe (ªMAD, DL-8700º, ªAMMCO 700 and 705º or
equivalent).
ThicknessNJBR0033S0203Thickness variation (At least 8 positions):
Maximum 0.01 mm (0.0004 in)
