Overhaul
Wheel Hub / Bearing Removal1. Hoist vehicle and remove wheel.
2. Remove axle shaft drive flange (1) (4WD vehicle) or hub cap (2WD vehicle).
3. If equipped with ABS, remove wheel speed sensor from knuckle and harness clamp from strut.
4. Remove caliper bolt and suspend caliper.
CAUTION: Hang removed caliper with a wire hook of the like so as to prevent brake hose from bending and twisting excessively or being pulled. Don't operate brake pedal with pads removed.
5. Remove brake disc (1).
NOTE: If brake disc can not be removed by hand, use 8 mm bolts as shown.
6. Remove front wheel bearing lock washer (1) by loosening 4 screws (2).
7. Remove front wheel bearing lock nut by using special tool (A).
Special tool
(A): 09951-16050
8. Remove front wheel bearing washer.
9. Remove wheel hub component (1) by hand.
CAUTION: If wheel bearing inner race remains on wheel spindle when removing wheel hub, which means break of wheel bearing, replace wheel hub component (included wheel bearing) (1).
NOTE: If wheel hub component (1) can not be removed by hand, use special tools as shown.

(B): 09943-35512
(C): 09942-15510
10. Remove sensor rotor (1) from wheel hub (2) as shown in the figure (if equipped with ABS).
CAUTION: Pull out sensor rotor (1) from wheel hub (2) gradually and evenly. Do not reuse sensor rotor once removed. Be sure to install new sensor.
11. Remove hub bolts from hub.
Wheel Hub / Bearing / Oil Seal Installation
1. Insert new stud in hub hole. Rotate stud slowly to assure serrations are aligned with those made by original bolt.
2. Install new sensor rotor by using special tools (if equipped with ABS).
NOTE: Use care not to insert wheel hub diagonally.

"a": 4.9 ± 0.1 mm (0.19 ± 0.004 inch)
3. Install wheel hub component to spindle supporting wheel bearing inner race by finger as shown in the figure.
CAUTION: Don't tap wheel hub component by hammer or the like. Otherwise, it will be broken.
NOTE: When it is impossible to install wheel hub component by hand, which means the inner race is out of alignment, remove wheel hub component once and reinstall it.
4. Install bearing washer, and then install wheel bearing lock nut.
5. Tighten wheel bearing lock nut to specified torque while turning wheel hub by hand.
Special tool
(A): 09951-16050
Tightening torque
Wheel bearing lock nut (a): 216 Nm (21.6 kgf-m, 156.5 ft. lbs.)
6. Using lock washer (1), lock bearing lock nut. If lock screw hole is not aligned with screw hole in lock nut, turn lock nut in tightening direction till they align.

7. For 4WD vehicle, apply lithium grease "A" to front drive shaft washer and front wheel spindle outer.
"A": Grease 99000-25010
8. For 4WD vehicle, When installing circlip (1) to drive shaft, utilize screw hole in drive shaft to pull it out and bring large diameter (2) of circlip (1) at right as shown in the figure.
9. Check that no foreign material is attached to sensor and rotor. Install wheel speed sensor (1) and its harness clamp (2) (if equipped with ABS).
Tightening torque
Wheel speed sensor harness clamp bolt (a): 10 Nm (1.0 kgf-m, 7.5 ft. lbs.)
Wheel speed sensor bolt (b): 23 Nm (2.3 kgf-m, 17.0 ft. lbs.)
CAUTION:
^ Do not pull wire harness or twist more than necessary when installing front wheel speed sensor.
^ Fit harness grommet to inner fender securely.

10. Install brake disc and caliper assembly.
Tightening torque
Front brake caliper bolt (e): 85 Nm (8.5 kgf-m, 61.5 ft. lbs.)
11. Apply sealant and install axle shaft drive flange or hub cap.
^ For 4WD vehicle
Apply sealant mating surface "A" of axle shaft drive flange (1), then install axle shaft drive flange and tighten flange bolt (2) to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Axle shaft drive flange bolt (a): 50 Nm (5.0 kgf-m, 36.5 ft. lbs.)
"A": Sealant 99000-31090
^ For 2WD vehicle
Remove grease, old sealant and dusts from mating surfaces of hub cap (1) and hub (2) to clean, apply water tight sealant to cap mating surface evenly, and install cap (1) to hub (2).
