REAR AXLE HUB

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Caution
1. The rear hub unit bearing should not be dismantled.
When removing the rear hub assembly, the wheel bearing inner race may be left at the spindle side.
In this case, always replace the rear hub assembly, otherwise the hub will damage the oil seal, causing
oil leaks or excessive play.
2. Care must be taken not to scratch or otherwise damage the teeth of the ABS rotor. The ABS rotor must
never be dropped. If the teeth of the ABS rotor are chipped, resulting in a deformation of the ABS rotor,
it will not be able to accurately detect the wheel rotation speed, and the system will not function normally.
Removal steps
1. Brake drum
