PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2005 July 2005 FX
PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
CautionADS000C0
Observe the following precautions when disassembling and servicing drive shaft.
Perform work in a location which is as dust-free as possible.
Before disassembling and servicing, clean the outside of parts.
Prevention of the entry of foreign objects must be taken into account during disassembly of the service
location.
Disassembled parts must be carefully reassembled in the correct order. If work is interrupted, a clean
cover must be placed over parts.
Paper shop cloths must be used. Fabric shop cloths must not be used because of the danger of lint adher-
ing to parts.
Disassembled parts (except for rubber parts) should be cleaned with kerosene which shall be removed by
blowing with air or wiping with paper shop cloths.

WHEEL HUBPFP:43202
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-
27, "Removal and Installation of Brake Caliper Assembly" .
NOTE:
Avoid depressing brake pedal while brake caliper is removed.
3. Remove disc rotor.
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.
8. Remove parking brake cable and parking brake shoe from back plate. Refer to PB-5, "
PARKING BRAKE
SHOE" and PB-3, "PARKING BRAKE CONTROL" .
9. Remove fixing nuts of anchor block with power tool, then remove anchor block and back plate from axle. Axial end play : 0 mm (0 in)
