Installation

1. NOTICE: Suspension fasteners are critical parts that affect performance of vital components and systems. Failure of these fasteners may result in major service expense. Use the same or equivalent parts if replacement is necessary. Do not use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Tighten fasteners as specified.

NOTE: Use washers that have an ID that is larger than the OD of the wheel stud serrations. Use enough washers (approximately 4) to allow the wheel stud to fully seat against the hub flange.
Position the wheel stud in the hub flange, making sure the serrations on the stud line up with the serrations in the hub flange. Install the washers and a reversed wheel nut.

2. NOTICE: Do not use power tools to install the wheel stud or damage to the hub flange may occur.

Tighten the wheel nut until the wheel stud is seated against the hub flange.





3. Remove the wheel nut and the washers. Discard the wheel nut.

4. Install the brake disc. REFER to Brake Disc.
