Withdrawal
1. Remove the wheel hub cap and loosen the hub bolt slightly while the vehicle is still on wheels. Loosen the corresponding wheel bolts as well.
2. Chock the rear wheels, apply the handbrake, raise the front of the vehicle and install jack stands. Remove the corresponding front wheel. After removing the wheel, install one wheel bolt into the hub to keep the brake disc position in relation to the hub.
3. Turn away screws of fastening and remove the lower protective casing of the engine to get access to a power shaft. If necessary, remove the transmission heat shield to improve access to the inboard joint.
4. On models with ABS, remove the wheel sensor from the hub as described in chapter 9. Release the sensor wiring from the mounting bracket on the brake caliper.
5. Remove the pinch bolt and separate the front and rear upper control arm pivots from the steering knuckle as described in paragraph 5 of chapter 10. Discard the nut, a new one is required for installation.
Warning: Do not disconnect the steering knuckle from the steering knuckle.
6. Turn away a bolt of a nave. If you forgot to loosen the bolt while the car was on wheels, screw the two wheel bolts into the hub. tighten them securely and have an assistant depress the brake pedal. With the hub locked in this way, the bolt can be loosened. To fix the hub, it is possible to make a tool from two metal strips fastened in the form of a fork, the ends of which are screwed to the step with wheel bolts.
7. Turn away bolts of fastening of the internal hinge to a gearbox flange, remove reinforcing plates (if provided). Tie the shaft with wire - do not let it hang, so as not to damage the hinge.
8. Bend the knuckle back to disengage the inner joint from the transmission flange. Take the hinge aside and remove the outer hinge from the spline connection with the hub. Remove the shaft from under the car (pic. 2.8). If provided, remove the gasket from the inner hinge surface and discard it - you need a new one to install.
Note: When the drive shafts are removed, do not lower the car onto the wheels - wheel bearings can be damaged. If it is necessary to roll the car, then insert the worthless old outer hinges into the hubs and tighten the hub bolts. Suitable drive shafts can also be installed: in this case, the internal hinges must be tied up so as not to damage.
Installation
9. Before installing the shaft, inspect the shaft seal at the gearbox. If necessary, on manual transmissions, replace it as described in chapter 7A.
10. Thoroughly clean the spline connection of the outer joint and hub, as well as the mating surfaces of the inner joint and flange. After that, make sure that the covers are securely fastened.
11. On internal ball joints, install a new gasket on the mating surface by peeling off the protective foil and gluing it to the joint.
12. Install the shaft in its place, aligning the spline connection with the hub. Install a new hub bolt and tighten it "by hand" (pic. 2.12, a, b).
13. Align the inner hinge with the gearbox flange, then tighten the mounting bolts with reinforcing plates (they are provided on ball-type hinges). Tighten all bolts carefully by hand", then, in diagonal sequence. tighten them to the prescribed torque (pic. 2.13, a-c). If necessary, install the heat shield on the gearbox housing and securely tighten its mounting bolts.
14. Install the front and rear upper arms of the front suspension onto the steering knuckle and insert the pinch bolt. Screw on a new fastening nut and tighten it to the prescribed torque, as described in chapter 10.
15. On models with ABS, install the wheel sensor on the hub as described in chapter 9. Attach the sensor wiring to the caliper.
16. Install the bottom guard and wheel. Lower the vehicle and tighten the wheel bolts to the specified torque.
17. With the car on wheels, then tighten the hub bolt to the prescribed torque for stage 1, then tighten it to the angle prescribed for stage 2, using a goniometer for this (pic. 2.17, a, b). If there is no goniometer, put angle marks on the hub before tightening in order to comply with the technology.
18. Install the wheel/hub cap.
