Front Wheel Hub, Disc, Nut and Bearing CheckS7RS0B2206008
• Inspect each wheel disc for dents, distortion and cracks.
A disc in badly damaged condition must be replaced.
• Check rust of installation face inside of wheel disc.
As rust affects adversely, remove it thoroughly.
• Check wheel nuts for tightness and, as necessary, retighten them to specification.
• Check wheel bolt press-fitted into wheel hub for wear, damage, poor thread condition, and looseness.
Replace defective bolt with a new one.
When bolt installation is found loose, replace both bolt
and wheel hub with new ones.
Tightening torque
Wheel nut: 85 N·m (8.5 kgf-m, 61.5 lb-ft)
• Check wear of wheel bearing. When measuring thrust play, apply a dial gauge to wheel hub as shown in
figure.
Front wheel bearing thrust play limit
“a”: 0.1 mm (0.004 in.)
• Check wheel bearing noise and smooth wheel rotation by rotating wheel in figure.
If defective, replace bearing.

Install wheel hub by reversing removal procedure noting
the following instructions.
• Insert new wheel stud bolt in wheel hub hole and rotate it slowly to assure serrations are aligned with
those made by replaced bolt.
• Never apply grease to encoder (1).
• Install new rear axle nut (1) and tighten to specified torque.
CAUTION!
Never reuse rear axle nut. Otherwise, nut may
loosen.

CAUTION!
Take care while staking nut. If a split occurs
in staked area of nut,
replace it with new one.

Lower than recommended pressure can cause:
• Tire squeal on turns
• Hard Steering
• Rapid and uneven wear on the edges of the tread
• Tire rim bruises and rupture
• Tire cord breakage
• High tire temperature
• Reduced handling
• High fuel consumption
Replacement Tires
When replacement is necessary, the original equipment
type tire should be used. Refer to the Tire Placard.
Replacement tires should be of the same size, load
range and construction as those originally on the vehicle.
Use of any other size or type tire may affect ride,
handling, speedometer / odometer calibration, vehicle
ground clearance and tire or snow chain clearance to the
body and chassis.
It is recommended that new tires be installed in pairs on
the same axle. If necessary to replace only one tire, it
should be paired with the tire having the most tread, to
equalize braking traction.
WARNING!
Do not mix different types of tires on the
same vehicle such as radial, bias and bias-
belted tires except in emergencies, because
handling may be seriously affected and may
result in loss of control.
The metric term for tire infl ation pressure is the kilo
pascal (kPa). Tire pressures is usually printed in both
kPa and kgf/cm
2 on the “Tire Placard”.
Metric tire gauges are available from tool suppliers.
The chart, shown the table, converts commonly used
inflation pressures from kPa to kgf/cm
2 and psi.
Wheels DescriptionS7RS0B2401002
Wheel Maintenance
Wheel repairs that use welding, heating, or peening are
not approved. All damaged wheels should be replaced.
Replacement Wheels
Wheels must be replaced if they are bent, dented, have
excessive lateral or radial runout, air leak through welds,
have elongated bolt holes, if lug wheel bolts won’t stay
tight, or if they are heavily rusted. Wheels with greater
runout than shown in the following may cause
objectional vibrations.
Replacement wheels must be equivalent to the original
equipment wheels in load capacity, diameter, rim with
offset and mounting configuration. A wheel of improper
size or type may affect wheel and bearing life, brake
cooling, speedometer / odometer calibration, vehicle
ground clearance and tire clearance to body and
chassis.
How to Measure Wheel Runout
To measure the wheel runout, it is necessary to use an
accurate dial indicator. The tire may be on or off the
wheel. The wheel should be installed to the wheel
balancer of the like for proper measurement.
Take measurements of both lateral runout “a” and radial
runout “b” at both inside an d outside of the rim flange.
With the dial indicator set in place securely, turn the
wheel one full revolution slowly and record every reading
of the indicator.
When the measured runout exceeds the specification
and correction by the balancer adjustment is impossible,
replace the wheel. If the reading is affected by welding,
paint or scratch, it should be ignored.
Lateral runout limit “a”
: 0.3 mm (0.012 in.)
Radial runout limit “b”
: 0.3 mm (0.012 in.)

Disassembly
CAUTION!
• Clean around caliper with brake fluid before disassembly.
• Be careful not to damage inside (bore side) of cylinder.
1) Remove piston with air blown into flexible hose bolt installation hole.
WARNING!
Do not apply too highly compressed air
which will cause piston to jump out of
cylinder. Place a cloth (1) to prevent piston
from damage. It should be taken out
gradually with moderately compressed air.
Do not place your fingers in front of piston
when using compressed air.
2) Remove cylinder boot.
3) Remove piston seal using a thin blade like a thickness gauge, etc.
4) Remove bleeder plug and cap from caliper.
