You must start servicing the
Wheel Hub by lifting and supporting the vehicle. Separate the tire from wheel and the rotor. Uninstall the wheel drive shaft nut holder cover. Unscrew and remove the wheel driveshaft assembly retaining nut along with its washer. Discard the nut because you need to use a new one when reinstalling. Uninstall the wheel drive shaft from the Wheel Hub and bearing by using an axle remover (J 45859). Next detach the Wheel Hub bolts from 15-series bearings and then from 25/35 series Wheel Hub and bearing bolts. Remove the wheel suspension components along with the splash shield from the vehicle and take out the o-ring seal from the 25/35 series
Steering Knuckle bore. Check the o-ring seal state by looking for any notches or cuts plus examining its dryness, brittleness, compression set, and material condition before replacing it. Before putting parts together you need to apply wheel bearing grease or equivalent product to the Steering Knuckle bore while making sure all contamination and corrosion stays off both bore areas. First put the o-ring into the Steering Knuckle of the 25/35 series then thread the
Wheel Speed Sensor mounting bolt into the Wheel Hub and bearing assembly but only tighten to 18 n.m (13 lb ft). Mount the Wheel Hub and bearing set with splash shield on the vehicle for 25/35 series before placing those parts for the 15 series. For both 15 series and 25/35 series install Wheel Hub mounting bolts before tightening Wheel Hub bolts to its knuckle at 180 n.m (133 lb ft). Thread the wheel drive shaft nut onto the Wheel Hub from above with its washer present and tighten it to 155 ft lb (210 N.m). After placing the Wheel Speed Sensor and brake hose mounting bracket over the Steering Knuckle bolt you into place with a 12 n.m torque and install the rotor, tire, wheel in reverse order followed by lowering the vehicle.
