On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceADS000C4
Make sure the mounting conditions (looseness, back lash) of each component and component status (wear,
damage) are normal.
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION
Move wheel hub in the axial direction by hand. Make sure there is no looseness of wheel bearing.
Rotate wheel hub and make sure there is no unusual noise or other irregular conditions. If there are any
irregular conditions, replace wheel bearings.
Removal and InstallationADS000C5
REMOVAL
1. Remove tire with power tool.
2. Remove brake caliper with power tool. Hang it in a place where it will not interfere with work. Refer to BR-
26, "Removal and Installation of Brake Caliper Assembly" .
NOTE:
Avoid depressing brake pedal while brake caliper is removed.

4. Remove wheel sensor from axle. Refer to BRC-57, "
WHEEL SENSORS" .
CAUTION:
Do not pull on wheel sensor harness.
5. Remove cotter pin. Then remove lock nut from drive shaft.
6. Separate drive shaft from wheel hub and bearing assembly by lightly tapping the end with a suitable ham-
mer and wood block. If it is hard to separate, use a suitable puller.
7. Remove fixing bolts of wheel hub and bearing assembly with power tool, then remove wheel hub and
bearing assembly from axle.

15. Use a ball joint remover (suitable tool) to remove suspension arm from axle. Be careful not to damage ball
joint boot.
CAUTION:
Tighten temporarily mounting nut to prevent damage to threads and to prevent ball joint remover
(suitable tool) from coming off.
16. Remove axle from vehicle.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Ball Joint Inspection
Check for boot breakage, axial looseness, and torque of suspension arm ball joint. Refer to RSU-11,
"INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL" .
INSTALLATION
Refer to RAX-5, "Removal and Installation" for tightening torque. Install in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
Refer to component parts location and do not reuse non-reusable parts.
Perform final tightening of installation position of suspension links (rubber bushing) under unladen condi-
tions with tires on level ground, Check wheel alignment. Refer to RSU-5, "
Wheel Alignment Inspection" .
After adjusting wheel alignment, adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-6, "Adjust-
ment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" .
Disassembly and AssemblyADS000C6
DISASSEMBLY
Wheel Bearing
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble if wheel bearing has no trouble.
1. Remove wheel bearing fixing bolts and anchor block fixing nuts, and remove wheel hub and bearing
assembly, back plate and anchor block from axle.
