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.

WARNING!
Do not touch exhaust system to avoid danger
of being burned when it is still hot.
Any service on exhaust system should be
performed when it is cool.

sure to apply some supporting equipment
(such as mission jack) under it at well-
balanced position in the center section so as
to prevent from its drop.

Removal
CAUTION!
Be sure to set front wheels (tires) in straight
direction and remove ignition key from key
cylinder before performing the following
steps; otherwise, contact coil of air bag
system may get damaged.

1) Remove steering joint cover.
2) Make alignment marks (1) on pinion shaft (2) and joint of steering lower shaft (3) for a guide during
reinstallation.
