2.
Remove the seal, inboard bearing and bearing race
from the hub (
3.
Wipe clean the seal and check for wear and damage.
Note:
Do not use cleaning solvent to clean the seal.
Replace the seal if it is worn or damaged.
4.
Clean the bearings and races, and check these parts for
wear and damage.
Note:
Replace all worn or damaged parts. Ensure that
the bearings and races are clean and dry.
5.
Clean the cavity of the hub of all grease, dirt, and debris
(
).
6.
Pack the bearings with the specified grease.
7.
Install the inboard and outboard bearing races into the
hub (
Note:
Ensure that the races are fully seated in the
bores of the hub.
8.
Fill the cavity of hub 50 to 80% full of the specified
grease (
9.
Assemble the inboard bearing onto the race at the
inboard side of the hub and install the seal (
).
10.
Repeat steps
through
to the bearings for the other
hub.
Installing the Hub and Rotor
1.
Apply a light coat of the specified grease to the spindle
(
).

Assemble the outboard bearing onto the spindle and
seat the bearing to the outboard race (
4.
Assemble the tab washer onto the spindle (
5.
Thread the spindle nut onto the spindle and tighten the
nut while rotating the hub (
).
Note:
Tighten the nut and rotate the spindle until the
bearings are fully seated and the hub has no linear-end
movement.
6.
Loosen the spindle nut until the hub rotates freely.
7.
Torque the spindle nut to 170 N-cm (15 in-lb) while
rotating the hub.
8.
Install the retainer over the nut and check the alignment
of the slot in the retainer and the hole in the spindle for
the cotter pin (
Note:
If the slot in the retainer and the hole in the
spindle are not aligned, tighten the spindle nut to align
the slot and hole to a maximum torque of 226 N-cm
(20 in-lb) on the nut.
