Rear Wheel Hub and Bearing Assembly
NOTE:
The rear ABS sensor is routed through the back of the rear backing plate and into the side of the wheel hub
and bearing assembly. It is necessary to remove the wheel hub and bearing assembly to remove the rear ABS
sensor.
REMOVAL
1. Remove the wheel and tire using power tool.
2. Remove the rear brake caliper, without disconnecting the hydraulic hose, using power tool. Reposition the
rear brake caliper aside using suitable wire. Refer to BR-36, "
Removal and Installation of Brake Caliper
and Disc Rotor".
NOTE:
• Do not depress the brake pedal while the brake caliper is removed.
3. Remove the rear disc rotor.
4. Remove the cotter pin, then remove the nut from the drive shaft using power tool.
• Discard the cotter pin, use a new one for installation.
5. Remove the drive shaft. Refer to RAX-10, "
Removal and Instal-
lation".
6. Remove the four wheel hub and bearing assembly bolts using power tool. • Discard the four wheel hub and bearing assembly bolts, use new ones for installation.

7. Pull out the wheel hub and bearing assembly for access to remove the rear ABS sensor from the wheel hub and bearing
assembly as shown.
• Inspect the ABS sensor O-ri ng, replace the ABS sensor
assembly if damaged.
• Clean the ABS sensor hole and mounting surface with a suit-
able brake cleaner and a clean lint-free shop rag. Be careful
that dirt and debris do not enter the axle bearing area.
• Apply a coat of suitable grease to the ABS sensor O-ring and
mounting hole.
CAUTION:
Do not pull on the ABS harness.
8. Remove the wheel hub and bearing assembly.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• Apply grease 44003 7S000 to contact surface between wheel hub and drive shaft. Use sufficient grease to completely coat contact
area.
• Inspect the ABS sensor O-ring, replace the ABS sensor assembly
if damaged.
• Clean the ABS sensor hole and mounting surface with a suitable brake cleaner and a clean lint-free shop rag. Be careful that dirt
and debris do not enter the axle bearing area.
• Apply a coat of suitable grease to the ABS sensor O-ring and mounting hole.
• Use a new cotter pin for installation.
• Use new wheel hub and bearing assembly bolts for installation.

Rear Load Leveling Air Suspension System
REMOVAL
1. Use the CONSULT-III “EXHAUST SOLENOID” active test to release the air pressure from the rear load
leveling air suspension system.
2. Disconnect the electrical connectors for the height sensor and the rear load leveling air suspension com-
pressor assembly.
3. Unclip the rubber cover to access the rear load leveling air suspension compressor assembly.
4. Disconnect the rear load leveling air suspension hoses at the rear load leveling air suspension compressor assembly.
• To disconnect the hoses, push in on the lock ring using a suit-able tool and pull the hose out.
5. Remove both of the rear wheel and tire assemblies using power tool.
6. Remove the brake caliper without disconnecting the brake hoses, using power tool. Reposition the brake caliper out of the
way using a suitable wire. Refer to BR-36, "

INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
Preliminary CheckINFOID:0000000005146183
DESCRIPTION
The purpose of the sonar sensor preliminary check is to confirm that there are no outside factors affecting the
sonar system.
CONDITIONS
• Ignition switch ON
• No obstructions within 3.0 m (10 ft.) of sonar sensors
SONAR SENSOR STATUS CHECK
• Check that the sonar sensors are properly aligned (no deformation in sensor mounting areas).
• Check that snow, mud or other foreign obj ects are not adhering to the sonar sensors.
• Check that there is no deformation, scratc hes or other damage to the sonar sensors.
• Check that water has not accu mulated in the sonar sensors.
CAUTION:
Use water, cotton swab, or other soft material for cleaning the sensors.
1. Check that there are no obstacles wit hin each sonar sensor's detection range.
2. Check that there are no nearby ultrasound sources such as the sounds of vehicle horns, motorcycle
engines or truck air brakes.
3. Check that the vehicle is on a level surface.
Sonar sensors Detection range
Front Approx. 1.0 m (3 ft.) maximum
Rear Approx. 1.8 m (5.9 ft.) maximum
