2. Rotate the hub in order to seat the bearing.3. Measure the hub starting torque by using the
following special tools.
•Torque wrench (MB990685)
•Preload socket (MB990326)
Limit: 1.8 N⋅m
4. The starting torque must be within the limit and
the hub rotation must be smooth.
>>C<< WHEEL BEARING AXIAL PLAY
CHECK
1. Measure to determine whether the wheel bearing
axial play is within the limit or not by using the
following special tools.
•Front hub remover and installer (MB991017)
•Spacer (MB991000)
Limit: 0.05 mm
2. If the play is not within the limit range while the nut
is tightened to 245 ± 29 N⋅m, the bearing, hub
and/or knuckle have probably not been installed
correctly. Replace the bearing and re-install.

DRIVE SHAFT ASSEMBLY
FRONT AXLE26-16
CAUTION
•Do not pull on the drive shaft; doing so will
damage the TJ; be sure to use the pry bar.
•When pulling the drive shaft out from the
transmission, be careful that the spline part of
the drive shaft does not damage the oil seal.
3. Insert a pry bar between the transmission case
and the drive shaft, and then pry and remove the
drive shaft from the transmission.4. Use special tool plug (MB991460) to prevent the
entry of foreign material into the transmission
case.
CAUTION
Do not apply pressure to the wheel bearing by
the vehicle weight to avoid possible damage
when the drive shaft is removed. If, however,
vehicle weight must be applied to the bearing in
moving the vehicle, temporarily secure the wheel
bearing by using the following special tools.

2. Secure the damper bands.
3. Wrap plastic tape around the shaft spline, and
then install the TJ boot band (small) and TJ boot.
>>B<< SPIDER ASSEMBLY
INSTALLATION
CAUTION
•The drive shaft joint use special grease. Do
not mix old and new or different types of
grease.
•If the spider assembly has been cleaned, take
special care to apply the specified grease.
1. Apply the specified grease furnished in the repair
kit to the spider assembly between the spider axle
and the roller.
Specified grease: Repair kit grease
2. Install the spider assembly to the shaft from the
direction of the spline chamfered side.
>>C<< TJ CASE INSTALLATION
CAUTION
The drive shaft joint use special grease. Do not
mix old and new or different types of grease.
After applying the specified grease to the TJ case,
insert the drive shaft and apply grease one more
time.
Specified grease: Repair kit grease
Amount to use:
<1.3L-LH, 1.6-LH, 2.0-LH>: 120 ± 10 g
<1.3L-RH, 1.6L-A/T-RH>: 110 ± 10 g
<1.6L-M/T-RH>: 120 ± 10 g
<2.0L-RH>: 105 ± 10 g
NOTE: The grease in the repair kit should be divided
in half for use, respectively, at the joint and inside the
boot.
>>D<< TJ BOOT BAND (SMALL)/TJ BOOT

CAUTION
•Secure the drive shaft in an upright position
and clamp part of the boot band to be crimped
securely in the jaws of special tool.
•Crimp the boot band until special tool
touches the stopper.
7. Use the special tool to crimp the boot band
(small).
8. Check that the crimping amount (C) of the boot
band is at the standard value.
Standard value (C): 2.4 − 2.8 mm

Readjust the value of (W) in step 5 according
to the following formula, and then repeat the
operation in step 7.
W = 5.5 mm − C
Example: If C = 2.9 mm, then W = 2.6 mm.
mm >
Remove the BJ boot band, readjust the value
of (W) in step 5 according to the following
formula, and then repeat the operations in
steps 6 and 7 using a new BJ boot band.
W = 5.5 mm − C
Example: If C = 2.3 mm, then W = 3.2 mm.
9. Check that the boot band is not sticking out past
the place where it has been installed. If the boot
band is sticking out, remove it and then repeat
steps 6 to 8, using a new boot band.
