Removal And Installation: Notes

CAUTION:

The 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 removing and installing the driveshaft assembly, make sure that the magnetic encoder (integrated with the inner oil seal) does not contact with surrounding parts to avoid damage.
When removing and installing the front wheel speed sensor, make sure that the sensor head at the end does not contact with surrounding parts to avoid damage.
The parts indicated by * are the nuts with friction coefficient stabilizer. Prior to reinstallation, ensure there is no damage, clean dust and soiling from the bearing and thread surfaces, and tighten them to the specified torque.
