FRONT WHEEL FREE PLAY INSPECTION

1. Raise the front of the vehicle.
2. Using your hands, attempt to rock the wheel and hub assembly back and forth on the spindle. If there is
any observable movement of the wheel and hub on the spindle, remove dust cap (1) and cotter pin (2),
and then tighten the spindle nut (3) until the bearing (5) fully seats in the bearing race (7).
3. Loosen spindle nut one cotter pin position. If the hub does not turn freely, loosen spindle nut one more
cotter pin position.
4. Install a new cotter pin (2). If movement continues, replace the wheel bearings (5) as required
(Figure 7-24, Page 7-24).
