Deviation
Front wheel vibration
Noise (drive shaft)ReferenceII. On-board Inspection1. Check front wheel hub bearing
(1) Remove front wheel.
(2) Remove front brake caliper assembly.
(3) Remove front brake disc.
(4) Check the bearing backlash.
Set a dial indicator near the front wheel hub center to check
the backlash.
Maximum: 0.05mm
If the backlash exceeds the maximum value, replace the front
wheel hub bearing.
(5) Check the front wheel hub deviation
Using a dial indicator, check the deviation of the surface of the
wheel hub outside the hub bolt.
Maximum: 0.07mm
If the backlash exceeds the maximum value, replace the front
wheel hub subassembly.Propeller Shaft/DriveshaftPropeller Shaft, Driveshaft and Transaxle4-17 -

(6) Install front brake disc.
(7) Install front brake caliper assembly
(8) Install font wheel.
Torque: 103N.m
2. Check back wheel hub bearing
(1) Remove rear wheel.
(2) Remove rear brake drum subassembly.
(3) Check bearing backlash.
Set a dial indicator near the rear wheel hub center to check the
backlash.
Maximum: 0.05mm
If the backlash exceeds the maximum value, replace the rear
wheel hub and bearing assembly.
(4) Check rear wheel hub deviation
Using a dial indicator, check the deviation of the surface of
the rear wheel hub inside the hub bolt.
Maximum: 0.07mm
If the backlash exceeds the maximum value, replace the rear
wheel hub and bearing assembly.
(5) Install rear brake subassembly
(6) Install rear wheel

Notice:
If the pin holes are not aligned, further tighten the nut by 60°.
43. Install front stabilizer bar
(1) As shown in the illustration, install the stabilizer bar with two
No.1 collars and two gaskets and nuts.
Notice:
Make sure the gaskets and collars are correctly installed.
(2) Tighten the nut with a 10mm wrench.
Torque: 18N.m
