Remove the front wheel & tire.
Tightening torque :
88.3 ~ 107.9N.m(9.0 ~ 11.0kgf.m, 65.1 ~ 79.6lb-ft)
Be careful not to damage to the hub bolts when removing the front wheel & tire.
Remove the lower arm (A) from the knuckle by using the SST (09568-34000).
Tightening torque:
58.8 ~ 70.6 Nm (6.0 ~ 7.2 kgf.m, 43.4 ~ 52.1 lb-ft)
When using SST, be sure not to damage the dust cover of lower arm ball joint.
Keep SST tied to the car because there is a risk of injury by dropping the SST during removing the lower arm ball joint.
The peripheral parts may be damaged when removing the lower arm ball joint with a general tool such as lever, so be sure to use SST.
Loosen the bolts & nuts and then remove the lower arm(A) with the sub frame.
Tightening torque :
Front
98.1 ~ 117.7N.m(10.0 ~ 12.0kgf.m, 72.3 ~ 86.8lb-ft)
Rear
156.9 ~ 176.5N.m(16.0 ~ 18.0kgf.m, 115.7 ~ 130.2lb-ft)
Installation is the reverse of removal.
Check the bushing for wear and deterioration.
Check the lower arm for deformation.
Check the all bolts and nuts.
