runout is usually due to worn or loosened wheel
bearings and can be reduced by replacing the
bearings. If bearing replacement fails to reduce the
runout, replace the wheel.

the bearing in the following procedure if there is anything
unusual. Refer to “Front Wheel Dust Seal / Bearing
Removal and Installation (Page 2D-7)”.
