Wheel Hub: Testing and Inspection
REAR HUB ROTARY SLIDING RESISTANCE CHECK
1. Release the parking brake.
2. Remove the brake drum.
3. For vehicles with rear disc brake, remove the caliper assembly and the brake disc.
4. After turning the hub a few times to seat the bearing, wind a rope around the hub bolt and turn the hub by pulling at a 90° angle with a spring
balance. Measure to determine whether or not the rotary-sliding resistance of the rear hub is at 18 N (3.9 lbs.) or less.
NOTE: If the rotary-sliding resistance exceeds 18 N (3.9 lbs.) or less, replace the rear hub assembly.
