A: REMOVAL
1) Disconnect the ground cable from the battery.
2) Lift-up the vehicle, and remove the front wheels.
3) Lift the crimped section of axle nut.
4) Remove the axle nut using a socket wrench
while depressing the brake pedal.
CAUTION:
Remove the wheel before loosening the axle
nut. Failure to follow this rule may damage the
wheel bearings.
5) Remove the disc brake caliper from the front
housing, and suspend it from strut using a piece of
wire.
6) Remove the disc rotor from the hub.
NOTE:
If it is difficult to remove the disc rotor from the hub,
drive the 8 mm of bolt into the threaded end of rotor,
then remove the rotor.
7) Remove four bolts from the front housing.
CAUTION:
•Do not get closer the tool which charged
magnetism to magnetic encoder.
•Be careful not to damage the magnetic en-
coder.

C: DISASSEMBLY
Using the ST and a hydraulic press, push out the
hub bolts.
ST 28399AG000 HUB STAND
CAUTION:
•Be careful not to hammer the hub bolts. This
may deform the hub.
•Do not reuse the hub bolt.
NOTE:
Since the hub unit bearing can not be disassem-
bled, only hub bolts can be removed.
D: ASSEMBLY
1) Attach the hub to the ST securely.
ST28099PA080 HUB STAND
2) Using a press, press the new hub bolts until their
seating surfaces contact the hub.
NOTE:
Use the 12 mm (0.47 in) dia. holes in the HUB
STAND to prevent bolts from tilting.
E: INSPECTION
Refer to Front Axle for inspection procedures.

CAUTION:
If there is any fault in the bearing, replace hub
unit bearing.
