Precautions
PRECAUTIONSNJAX0022+When installing each rubber part, final tightening must be
carried out under unladen condition* with tires on ground.
*: Fuel, radiator coolant and engine oil full. Spare tire, jack,
hand tools and mats in designated positions.
+Use flare nut wrench when removing or installing brake
tubes.
+After installing removed suspension parts, check wheel
alignment.
+Do not jack up at the trailing arm and lateral link.
+Always torque brake lines when installing.

REMOVALNJAX0029CAUTION:
+Before removing the rear wheel hub assembly, disconnect
the ABS wheel sensor from the assembly. Then move it
away from the hub assembly. Failure to do so may result
in damage to the sensor wires and the sensor becoming
inoperative.
+Wheel hub bearing does not require maintenance. If any of
the following symptoms are noted, replace wheel hub
bearing assembly.
1) Growling noise is emitted from wheel hub bearing dur-
ing operation.
2) Wheel hub bearing drags or turns roughly. This occurs
when turning hub by hand after bearing lock nut is tight-
ened to specified torque.

1. Remove brake caliper assembly.
2. Remove wheel bearing lock nut.
3. Remove brake rotor (models with disk brake) or brake drum
(models with drum brakes).
4. Remove wheel hub bearing from spindle.
CAUTION:
Do not disconnect brake hose from caliper.
+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.
