REMOVAL
1. Remove front wheel and tire using power tool. Refer to WT-55, "Adjustment".
2. Remove brake caliper torque member bolts, leaving brake hose attached, position the caliper aside with
wire. Refer to BR-36, "BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLY : Exploded View"
.
CAUTION:
• Do not depress brake pedal while brake caliper is removed.
• Do not twist or stretch the brake hose.
3. Put alignment marks on disc rotor and rear wheel hub and bearing assembly, then remove disc rotor.
4. Remove wheel sensor and wheel sensor harness from strut. Refer to BRC-124, "Exploded View - Front
Wheel Sensor".
5. Remove the stabilizer connecting rod (1). Refer to FSU-14,
"Removal and Installation".
6. Disengage the drive shaft from wheel hub and bearing assembly. Refer to FAX-10, "Removal and Installa-
tion (LH)" (LH Side), FAX-12, "Removal and Installation (RH)" (RH Side).

TRANSVERSE LINK
7. Separate the outer socket from the knuckle (1). Refer to ST-36,
"Exploded View".
8. Remove the strut from t he knuckle using power tool.
9. Remove transverse link bolt and nut. Using Tool, separate trans- verse link (1) from steering knuckle.
10. Remove the steering knuckle and hub.
11. Remove transverse link bolts (A) and the transverse link from suspension member.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Ball Joint Inspection
Manually move ball stud to confirm it moves smoothly with no binding.
Swing Torque Inspection
1. Move ball stud at least ten times by hand to check for smooth movement.
2. Hook a spring balance (A) at pinch bolt location. Confirm spring balance measurement value is within specifications when ball
stud begins moving.
- If swing torque exceeds standard range, replace transverse link.
Axial End Play Inspection
1. Move ball stud at least ten times by hand to check for smooth movement.
2. Move tip of ball stud in axial direction to check for looseness.

• The captions WARNING and CAUTION warn you of steps that must be followed to prevent personal injury
and/or damage to some part of the vehicle.
WARNING indicates the possibility of personal injury if instructions are not followed.
CAUTION indicates the possibility of component damage if instructions are not followed.
BOLD TYPED STATEMENTS except WARNING and CAUTION give you helpful information.
Standard value: Tolerance at inspection and adjustment.
Limit value: The maximum or minimum limit val ue that should not be exceeded at inspection and adjust-
ment.
UnitsINFOID:0000000009462969
• 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.

ContentsINFOID:0000000009462970
• A QUICK REFERENCE INDEX , a black tab (e.g. ) is provided on the first page. You can quickly find the
first page of each section by matching it to the section's black tab.
• THE CONTENTS are listed on the first page of each section.
• THE TITLE is indicated on the upper portion of each page and shows the part or system.
• THE PAGE NUMBER of each section consists of two or three letters which designate the particular section
and a number (e.g. “BR-5”).
• THE SMALL ILLUSTRATIONS show the important steps such as ins pection, use of special tools, knacks of
work and hidden or tricky steps which are not s hown in the previous large illustrations.
Assembly, inspection and adjustment procedures for the complicated units such as the automatic transaxle
or transmission, etc. are presented in a step-by-step format where necessary.
