REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

M12701000020USA0000010000

｠

Do  not  disassemble  the  rear  wheel  hub
assembly.

｠

The  wheel  speed  detection  magnetic  encoder
collects metallic particles easily, because it is
magnetized.  Make  sure  that  the  magnetic
encoder  should  not  collect  metallic  particles.
Check  that  there  is  not  any  trouble  prior  to
reassembling it.

｠

When the rear wheel hub assembly is removed/
installed,  make  sure  that  the  wheel  speed

detection  magnetic  encoder  (integrated  with
inner  oil  seal)  does  not  contact  with
surrounding parts to avoid damage.

｠

When  removing  and  installing  the  rear  wheel
speed sensor, make sure that its pole piece at
the end does not contact with surrounding parts
to avoid damage.

｠

The part indicated with * is the bolt with friction
coefficient stabilizer. In removal, replace it with
a new one.

Washer

1.

Incorporate the driveshaft washer as shown in the figure.

2.

Use special tool MB990767 to tighten the driveshaft nuts. At
this  time,  tighten  the  nuts  within  the  specified  torque  range
considering the final tightening.

Tightening torque: 144 - 176 N·m (107 - 129 ft-lb)

3.

If the pin holes do not align with the pins, tighten the driveshaft
nut [less than 200 N·m (147 ft-lb)] and find the nearest hole
then bend the split ping to fit it.
