2004 DRIVELINE/AXLES
Front Axle - Endeavor
GENERAL DESCRIPTION The front axle consists of front hubs, knuckles, wheel bearings and drive shafts, and
has the following features:
The wheel bearing incorporates a unit ball bearing (double-row angular contact
ball bearing) for reduced friction. The front wheel hub assembly combines the hub, wheel bearing, housing, and
oil seal in a single unit for fewer parts, better durability, improved assembly
precision, and better structural organization. The driveshaft incorporates BJ-PTJ type constant velocity joints< FWD>, BJ-
DOJ < AWD-LH>and BJ-TJ< AWD-RH> with high transmission efficiency
for low vibration and noise. Due to the use of the inner shaft and bracket assembly, the right and left drive
shafts are approximately the same in length. This reduces noise, vibration and
torque steer.< FWD> ABS rotor for detecting the wheel speeds is press-fitted to the rear hub in
vehicles with ABS.

SYMPTOM PROCEDURES INSPECTION PROCEDURE 1: VEHICLE PULLS TO ONE SIDE WHEN BRAKES ARE APPLIED DIAGNOSIS
STEP 1. Check for oil, water, etc., on the pad contact surface of all brakes.
Q: Is oil, water, etc., on the pad contact surface?
YES: Replace the part and determine the source/cause of foreign material.
Then go to Step 5 .
NO: Go to Step 2.
STEP 2. Check disc brake pistons for smooth operation.
1. With engine not running, depress the brake pedal rapidly several times to
deplete booster vacuum reserves.
2. Test each disc brake assembly one at a time.
a. Remove the lower caliper bolt, then remove caliper from mount.
b. Have an assistant slowly depress the brake pedal. Confirm piston(s)
extend slowl
y and smoothl
y with no
jum
piness. Re
peat for each disc
