AND ASSEMBLY
11. Install plate (9) without shims on the spindle.
Install three of the bolts that hold it so there are
even spaces between the bolts. Turn wheel as-
sembly slowly by hand, and tighten the bolts to
a torque of 100 ± 15 N·m (75 ± 11 lb.ft.).
Loosen the bolts until the plate is free. Tighten
the bolts again to a torque of 25 ± 7 N·m (20
± 5 lb.ft.).
12. Use a depth micrometer (10) and measure
through the three small holes in the plate. Find
the average depth.
13.
14.
15.
Find the difference between the two average
measurements in Steps 10 and 12. The differ-
ence is the gap between the end of the spindle
and the plate.
Remove the plate from the spindle. Install an
amount of shims (11), the same thickness as the
average gap found in Step 13 plus 0.13 mm
(.005 in.).
Install plate (9) and all of the bolts. Tighten the
bolts evenly to a torque of 150 ± 20 N·m (110
± 15 lb.ft.).
