Adjustment of front wheel hub bearing preload
1. Tighten spindle nut to 3.0 kgm (21.7 lb.ft/29.4 Nm) torque.
2. Turn the hub 2-3 turns and loosen the nut just enough so
that it can be turned with the fingers.
3. Turn the nut all the way in with the fingers and check to be
sure the hub has no free play.
4. Measure the bearing preload by pulling one of the wheel
hub studs with a spring scale.
5. Tighten the spindle nut until specified bearing preload Is
obtained.
6. Install the split pin in the nut retainer.
Discard the used split pin and install a new one.
After reassembling, install the disc brake caliper assembly.
