AXLE HUB ASSEMBLY

Removal

Raise and support vehicle. Remove wheel assembly. Remove hub cap. Remove snap ring and shim. Remove drive flange. Remove brake caliper and suspend with wire. On vehicles with ABS, remove ABS speed sensor. On all models, remove lock washer. Remove lock nut using Socket. Remove front rotor and hub assembly.

Clean any grease from the inside surface of the front hub. Drive out the inner and outer bearing races by tapping them uniformly using brass drift and hammer.

Lubricate bearing races. Install bearing races in hub using Handle and Bearing Installer (MB990938 and MB990935). Ensure bearing races are fully seated.

To install, reverse removal procedure. Adjust wheel bearing preload and check drive shaft endplay.
