To take care of the front hub and bearing assembly, lift the car on support stands, remove the tire and wheel first and then work on the assembly. Take out all three parts-cotter pin, nut lock and spring washer-from the end of the halfshaft stub shaft. After firmly applying brakes and locking the hub, take the hub nut off. Following this, open up the wheel well to access and remove the front brake rotor, disconnect the car wiring harness from the wheel speed sensor connector, unclip the sensor wiring and clip from the outer part of the reinforcement frame rail and take out the screw joining the wheel speed sensor routing bracket to the strut assembly. Separate the routing clip at the knuckle to take out the wheel speed sensor's cable. Disengage the joints between the hub and halfshaft with a push at the end of the stub shaft, then take out all four bolts from the back of the
Steering Knuckle and the hub and bearing assembly. Before installing the hub and bearing, clean the mounting surfaces found on the steering knuckle and stub shaft to make them smooth. Slot the halfshaft stub shaft into the bearing, put it onto the hub and insert it straight into the steering knuckle. Attach the bolts through the rear of the knuckle, gradually tightening them evenly in a cross shape to 65 Nm (45 ft. lbs.). Slide the wheel speed sensor cable grommet into the clip at the knuckle, fasten the clip and put the routing bracket of the wheel speed sensor into the strut assembly and tighten the screw to 115 inch lbs. torque. Fasten the wheel speed sensor connector and routing clip to the frame rail outer support, attach the car's wiring harness to the sensor and install the rotor, caliper and adapter bracket assembly. Safe operation is guaranteed if the wheel speed sensor cable does not contact the brake rotor or any other moving parts. Screw the washer and hub nut onto the end of the stub shaft, using brakes to hold the the halfshaft in place as you apply 33 kgm (244 ft. lbs.) torque. Attach the spring washer and hub nut lock over the hub nut and stub shaft and secure it by wrapping a tight new cotter pin around the lock nut. Fit the tire and wheel assembly back onto the vehicle, using a torque wrench to fasten the wheel mounting nuts to 135 Nm (100 ft. lbs.), then drop the vehicle, pump the brake pedal several times to make sure it is firm, top up the brake fluid as required and do a wheel alignment.
