A. Install the snap ring.

NOTE:
- Press-in the outer race of the wheel bearing to prevent damage to the bearing assembly.

5. Tighten the hub and the knuckle to the specified torque using the Special Tool (09517-21500).

Specified torque Nm (kg-cm, lb-ft)
200 - 250 (2000 - 2500, 147 - 184)





6. Measure the hub bearing starting torque.

Hub bearing starting torque [Limit]
1.8 Nm (18 kg-cm, 1.3 lb-ft) or less





7. If the starting torque is 0 Nm (0 kg-cm, 0 lb-ft), measure the hub bearing axial play.




8. If the hub axial play exceeds the limit while the nut is tightened to 200 - 260 Nm (2000 - 2600kg-cm, 145 - 188 lb-ft), the bearing, hub and knuckle are not installed correctly. Repeat the disassembly and assembly procedure.
