Hub Replacement (Front Suspension)

Instuctions

• Loosen the wheel nuts slightly.
• Raise the front of car and support on safety stands in proper locations.
• Remove the wheel nuts and wheel. NOTE : Before installing the wheel, clean the mating surfaces of the brake disc and inside of the wheel.
• Remove the brake hose mounting bolts.

• Remove the speed sensor from the knuckle and front lower control arm, but do not disconnect it. NOTE: Be careful when installing the sensors to avoid twisting wires.

• Remove the caliper bracket mounting bolts and hang the caliper assembly to one side. To prevent accidental damage to the caliper assembly or brake hose, use a short piece of wire to hang the caliper assembly from the undercarriage.
• Remove the 6 mm brake disc retaining screws. Screw two 8 x 12 mm bolts into the disc to push it away from the hub. Turn each bolt two turns at a time to prevent cocking the disc excessively.
• Remove the hub unit from the knuckle.
