 Place a suitable washer (A) as shown in the figure to install the hub bolts (1) by using the tightening force of the nut (B).
CAUTION:
 Check that there is no cl earance between wheel hub and
bearing assembly, and hub bolt.
 Never reuse hub bolt.
 Clean the matching surface of wheel hub lock nut and wheel hub and bearing assembly. CAUTION:
Never apply lubricating oi l to these matching surface.
 Clean the matching surface of drive shaft and wheel hub and bear-
ing assembly. And then apply paste [service parts (440037S000)]
to surface (A) of joint sub-assembly of drive shaft.
CAUTION:
Apply paste to cover entire fl at surface of joint sub-assembly
of drive shaft.
 Use the following torque range for tightening the wheel hub lock nut.
CAUTION:
 Since the drive shaft is assembled by press-fitting , use the tightening torque range for the wheel
hub lock nut.
 Be sure to use torque wrench to tighten th e wheel hub lock nut. Never use a power tool.
NOTE:
Wheel hub lock nut tightening torque does not over tor que for avoiding axle noise, and does not less than
torque for avoiding looseness.
 Perform the final tightening of each of parts under unladen conditions, which were removed when removing wheel hub and bearing assembly and axle housing.
 When installing the adjusting cap, check that there must be no play.
 Never reuse cotter pin, wheel hub lock nut, and bushing.
 Perform inspection after installation. Refer to RAX-9, "
Inspection".
