6. Use a dial gauge to measure the bearing axial rattle.
Bearing axial rattle: 0.05 mm max
411R200002If abnormal conditins are discovered during
inspection, go to Step 7. If there are no abnormal
conditions, reassemble the front discrotor and
caliper.
NOTE: Hub, wheel bearing and spindle is integrated to
the hub unit bearing so it must not be disassembled. If it
has abnormal rattle or noize, replace the hub unit bearing.
