Installation
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.
 
Tightening torque
Rear axle nut (a):  175 N·m (17.5 kgf-m, 126.5 lb-ft) • Caulk new rear axle nut (1) as shown.
CAUTION! 
Take care while staking nut. If a split occurs 
in staked area of nut, 
replace it with new one.
 
Stake specification
“a”: 0.5 mm (0.02 in.) or more
• Install new spindle cap.
Rear Wheel Disc, bolt and Bearing InspectionS7RS0B2306013
• Check tightness of wheel nuts and, if necessary,  retighten to specified torque.
• Check wheel disc deformation, damage, crack and  etc.
Replace defective disc with new one.
• Check installation face insi de of wheel disc for rust.
As rust affects adversely, remove it thoroughly.
Tightening torque
Wheel nut:  85 N·m (8.5 kgf-m, 61.5 lb-ft)
• Check wear of wheel bearings. When measuring  thrust play, apply a dial gauge to axle shaft center. 
When the thrust play exce eds limit, replace bearing.
