TRANSVERSE LINK
Removal and InstallationINFOID:0000000001327542
REMOVAL
1. Remove tire from vehicle with power tool.
2. Remove undercover with power tool.
3. Remove front cross bar.
4. Remove cotter pin at transve rse link, then loosen mounting nut.
5. Use a ball joint remover (SST) to remove transverse link from steering knuckle. Be careful not to damage ball joint boot.
CAUTION:
Tighten temporarily mounting nut to prevent damage to
threads and to prevent ball jo int remover (SST) from com-
ing off.
6. Remove mounting bolts which are at the back of transverse link (mounting part with body) with power tool, separate transverse
link.
7. Remove mounting bolts which are at the front of transverse link (mounting part with front suspension member) with power tool,
separate transverse link.
8. Remove transverse link from vehicle.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Visual Inspection
 Check transverse link and bushing for deformation, cracks, or damage. If any non-standard condition is
found, replace it.
 Check boot of ball joint for cracks, or other damage, and also for grease leakage. If any non-standard condi-
tion is found, replace it.
Ball Joint Inspection
Manually move ball stud to confirm it moves smoothly with no binding.
Swing Torque Inspection
NOTE:
Before measurement, move ball joint at least ten times by hand to check for smooth movement.
 Hook spring balance at ball stud. Confirm spring balance measure- ment value is within the specifications when ball stud begins mov-
ing.
 If it is outside the specified range, replace transverse link assem- bly.
Rotating Torque Inspection

TRANSVERSE LINK
 Attach mounting nut to ball stud. Check that rotating torque iswithin the specifications with a preload gauge (SST).
 If it is outside the specified range, replace transverse link assem- bly.
Axial End Play Inspection
 Move tip of ball joint in axial direction to check for looseness.
 If it is outside the specified range, replace transverse link assembly.
INSTALLATION
 Refer to FSU-6, "Removal and Installation" for tightening torque. Install in the reverse order of removal.
NOTE:
Refer to component parts location and do not reuse non-reusable parts.
 After removing/installing or replacing suspension components, check wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-5,
"Wheel Alignment Inspection".
 After adjusting wheel alignment, adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-8, "
Adjust-
ment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position".

Limit value:The maximum or minimum limit value t hat should not be exceeded at inspection and adjustment.
UnitsINFOID:0000000001325665
 The UNITS given in this manual are primarily expressed as the SI UNIT (International System of Unit), and
alternatively expressed in the metric system and in the yard/pound system.
Also with regard to tightening torque of bolts and nuts, there are descriptions both about range and about the
standard tightening torque.

THE LARGE ILLUSTRATIONS are exploded views (see the following) and contain tightening torques, lubri-
cation points, section number of the PARTS CATALOG (e.g. SEC. 440) and other information necessary to
perform repairs.
The illustrations should be used in reference to service matters only. When ordering parts, refer to the appro-
priate PARTS CATALOG .
Components shown in an illustration may be identified by a circled number. When this style of illustration is
used, the text description of the components will follow the illustration. Outer Socket Lock Nut : 59 - 78 N·m (6.0 - 8.0 kg-m, 43 - 58 ft-lb)
