Rear
Hub Bearing Unit Replacement
1. Raise the rear of the vehicle, and support it with safety stands in the proper locations.
2. Remove the wheel cap, wheel nuts, and rear wheel.
3. Remove the hub cap (A), raise the stake (B), and remove the spindle nut (C).
4. Screw two 8 x 1.25 mm bolts (A) into the drum to push it away from the hub. Turn each bolt 2 turns at a time to prevent cocking the drum excessively.
5. Remove the brake drum (A), and remove the hub bearing unit (B) from the spindle. If the brake drum has stuck to the hub bearing unit, pull them out together. Do not tap on the aluminum brake drum.
6. Install the hub bearing unit in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
^ Tighten all mounting hardware to the specified torque values.
^ Before installing the brake drum, clean the mating surface of the hub and the inside of the brake drum.
^ Use a new spindle nut on reassembly.
^ Before installing the spindle nut, apply a small amount of engine oil to the seating surface of the nut. After tightening, use a drift to stake the spindle nut shoulder against the spindle.
^ Use a new hub cap on reassembly.
^ Before installing the wheel, clean the mating surface of the brake drum and the inside of the wheel.
