Hub & Drum Assembly: Installation

  1. Lightly oil top of axle shaft tube. Install hub and drum assembly onto axle shaft tube. Ensure inner bearing and oil seal are correctly installed.
  2. Lubricate and install outer bearing. Using torque wrench and socket from Wheel Bearing Nut Wrench Set (J-2222-C), install adjusting nut. To set wheel bearing preload, turn hub and drum assembly while tightening adjusting nut to 50 ft. lbs. (68 N.m).
  3. Stop turning hub. Back off adjusting nut until nut is just slightly loose. Tighten adjusting nut until nut just contacts bearing (barely snug). Align slots in nut and axle groove.
  4. Install locking key into nut/axle slot. Install and seat retaining ring in position. Install axle shaft and wheel assembly. Add lubricant.
