REAR SUSPENSION Items Nmkgf.m lb- ft

Tightening torque Nm (kgf.m, lb - ft) :
13 ~ 18 (1.3 ~ 1.8, 9.4 ~ 13.0)
After installation, if neccessary, adjust the alignment of the steering wheel and front tires
INSPECTION
1.Check the bushing for wear and deterioration.
2. Check the stabilizer bar for bending or breakage.
3. Check the ball joint for rotating torque.
(1) If there is a crack in the dust cover, replace it and add grease.
(2) Move the stabilizer link ball joint stud several times in a circular motion.
(3) Mount the self - locking nut on the ball joint, and then measure the ball joint rotating torque.
Standard value :
0.5 ~ 2.5 Nm (5 ~ 25 kgf., 0.36 ~ 1.81 lb - ft)
Measure torque using the special tool(09532- 11600) and torque wrench at the range of 0.5 - 2 rpm after
moving the ball joint stud 10 times at room temperature.
(4)If the rotating torque exceeds the upper limit of standard value, replace the upper arm assembly.
(5) Even if the rotating torque is below the lower limit of the standard value, the ball joint may be reused unless it
has drag and excessive play.

Tires / Wheels

Tires

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
TIRE WEAR
1.Measure the tread depth of the tires.
Tread depth [limit] : 1.6 mm (0.063 in)
2. If the remaining tread(A) depth is less than the limit, replace the tire.
When the tread depth of the tires is less than 1.6 mm (0.063 in), the wear indicators(B) will appear.
TIRE ROTATION
Rotate the tires in the pattern illustrated.
CHECKING FOR PULL AND WANDER
If the steering pulls to one side, rotate the tires according to the following wheel rotation procedure.
1. Rotate the front right and front left tires, and perform a road test in order to confirm vehicle stability.

2.If the steering pulls to the opposite side, rotate the front and rear tires, and perform a road test again.
3.If the steering continues to pull to one side, rotate the front right and left tires again, and perform a road test.
4.If the steering continues to pull to the opposite side, replace the front wheels with new ones.

WHEEL ALIGNMENT
When using commercially available computerized four wheel alignment equipment (caster, camber, toe) to inspect the
front wheel alignment, always position the car on a level surface with the front wheels facing straight ahead.
Prior to inspection, make sure that the front suspension and steering system are in normal operating condition and
that the wheels and tires face straight ahead and the tires are inflated to the specified pressure.
TOE
Toe is a measurement of how much the front of the wheels are turned in or out from the straight- ahead position.
Item Description
A - B < 0 Positive (+) toe (toe in)
A - B > 0 Negative ( - ) toe (toe out)
When the wheels are turned in toward the front of the vehicle, toe is positive (+) (toe in). When the wheels are turned
out toward the front of the vehicle, toe is negative(- ) (toe out). Toe is measured in degrees, from side to side, and
totaled.
[FRONT]
Toe- in(B - A or angle a+b) is adjusted by turning the tie rod turnbuckles. Toe- in on the left front wheel can be reduced
by turning the tie rod toward the rear of the car. Toe- in change is adjusted by turning the tie rods for the right and left
heels simultaneously at the same amount as follows.
Standard value :
Toe- in (B- A) mm (in) : 0 ± 2 (0 ± 0.0787)
a. Toe- in adjustment should be made by turning the right and left tie rods at the same amount.
b. When adjusting toe - in, loosen the outer bellows clip to prevent twisting the bellows.
c. After the adjustment, tighten the tie rod end lock nuts firmly and reinstall the bellows clip.
d. Adjust each toe - in to be the range of ±1mm.
Tie rod(A) Specified torque Nm (kgf.m, lb - ft) :
70 ~ 80 (7 ~ 8, 50.6 ~ 57.8)

11.Remove the four mounting bolts (A) of the parking brake wire bracket from the rear cross member.
12.Remove the rear wheels and tires from the rear hubs.
13. Remove the hub cap (A) and the disc (B).
14.Remove the hub nut (A) and washer (B) and remove the rear hub (C).
15.Remove the shoe hold down pin and spring (A) by pressing and rotating the spring.
