Removal
CAUTION: Suspension fasteners are critical parts because they affect performance of vital components and systems and their failure may
result in major service expense. New parts must be installed with the same part numbers or equivalent part, if replacement is necessary. Do
not use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to make sure of
correct retention of these parts.
CAUTION: Orientation of the suspension fasteners is important. Make sure the fasteners are installed in the same direction as they were in
when removed, or incorrect clamp load and component damage may occur.
1. Measure the distance from the center of the hub to the lip of the fender with the vehicle in a level, static ground position (curb height).
