CAUTION:
- Never place drive shaft joint at an extreme angle. Also be careful not to overextend slide joint.
- Never allow drive shaft to hang down without support for counterpart such as joint sub-assembly, and other parts.
NOTE:
Use a suitable puller, if wheel hub and bearing assembly and drive shaft cannot be separated even after performing the above procedure.
7.Remove wheel hub lock nut and spring washer.
8.Remove parking brake shoe and parking brake cable from back plate. Exploded View
and Exploded View.
9.Remove stabilizer connecting rod (upper side) with power tool. Exploded View.
10.Remove coil spring. Exploded View.
11.Set suitable jack under axle housing.
12.Remove radius rod. Exploded View.
13.Remove shock absorber (lower side) with power tool. Exploded View.
14.Separate suspension arm from axle housing so as not to damage ball joint boot using ball joint remover (commercial service tool), and then remove axle housing from the vehicle.

INSTALLATION

Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
- Clean the matching surface of wheel hub lock nut and wheel hub and bearing assembly.

CAUTION:
Never apply lubricating oil to these matching surface.





- Clean the matching surface of drive shaft and wheel hub and bearing assembly. And then apply paste [service parts (440037S000)]
to surface (A) of joint sub-assembly of drive shaft.

CAUTION:
Apply paste to cover entire flat surface of joint sub-assembly of drive shaft.


Amount paste1.0 - 3.0 g (0.04 - 0.10 oz)
- When installing drive shaft, change the drive shaft and wheel hub and bearing assembly matching marks put at the removal step by
180 degree.
- Use the following torque range for tightening the wheel hub lock nut.
: 100 - 105 Nm (10 - 11 kg-m, 74 - 77 ft-lb)

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 the wheel hub lock nut. Never use a power tool.
- Never reuse wheel hub lock nut.
NOTE:
Wheel hub lock nut tightening torque does not over torque for avoiding axle noise, and does not less than torque for avoiding looseness.
- When installing the spring washer, face the identification paint mark to the wheel hub and bearing assembly side.

CAUTION:
Never reuse spring washer.
- Align the matching marks that have been made during removal when reusing the disc rotor.





- When installing a cotter pin (1) and adjusting cap (2), securely bend the basal portion to prevent rattles.

CAUTION:
Never reuse cotter pin.
- Perform the final tightening of each of parts under unladen conditions, which were removed when removing wheel hub assembly and axle housing.
- Never reuse bushing. Exploded View.
- Perform inspection after installation. Testing and Inspection.
