Rear

REAR HUB AND/OR BEARINGS






REMOVAL PROCEDURE
1. Raise and suitably support the vehicle.
2. Remove the wheel and the fire.

NOTICE: Do not hammer on brake chum as damage to the bearing could result.

3. Remove the brake drum (2). Refer to BRAKE DRUM REPLACEMENT in DRUM BRAKES.
4. Remove the ABS sensor wire connector.

Important: The bolts which attach the hub and the bearing also support the brake assembly. When removing these bolts, support the brake assembly with a wire or by other means. Do not let the brake line or the ABS electrical wire support the brake assembly.

5. Remove the four bolts (1), the hub (3), and the bearing from the axle.
6. Clean the knuckle face and the bore before installing the hub and the bearing.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Install the hub and the bearing (3) to the rear knuckle with four bolts (1). Be careful not to drop the hub and the bearing, as it could cause damage.

NOTICE: Always use the correct fastener in the proper location. When you replace a fastener, use ONLY the exact part number for that application. The manufacturer will call out those fasteners that require a replacement after removal. The manufacturer will also call out the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not use supplemental coatings (paints, greases, or other corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings adversely affect the fastener torque and joint clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When you install fasteners, use the correct tightening sequence and specifications. Following these instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and systems.

2. Reconnect the ABS sensor.
