Wheel Bearing End Play Check

  1. Remove the caliper assembly, and suspend the caliper assembly with a wire and remove the brake disc (Refer to REAR AXLE HUB ASSEMBLY  ).
  2. Check the bearing's end play. Place a dial gauge against the hub surface; then move the hub in the axial direction and check whether or not there is end play.

    Limit: 0.05 mm (0.002 inch) 

  3. Replace the rear hub assembly if an adjustment cannot be made to within the limit.
  4. After checking, install the brake disc and the caliper assembly, and tighten the caliper mounting bolt to the specified torque (Refer to REAR AXLE HUB ASSEMBLY  ).
