10. Position the adapter on the 4 mounting bolts installed in the rear axle (Fig. 149).
11. Install the hub/bearing on the stub shaft of outer C/V joint (AWD only) and into the end of the axle. (Fig. 140).
12. In a progressive crisscross pattern, tighten the 4 hub/bearing mounting bolts until the hub/bearing is squarely seated against the axle. Then tighten
the hub/bearing mounting bolts to a torque of 129 Nm (95 ft. lbs.).
13. AWD only - Install the wheel speed sensor on the hub/bearing and adapter. Install the wheel speed sensor attaching bolt (Fig. 137). Tighten the
wheel speed sensor attaching bolt to a torque of 12 Nm (105 inch lbs.).
14. FWD only - Install the wheel speed sensor in the following fashion:
a. If metal wheel speed sensor retaining clip is not in the neutral installed position on hub and bearing cap, install from the bottom, if necessary,
and push clip upward until it snaps into position.
b. Install wheel speed sensor head into rear of hub and bearing aligning index tab with the notch in the top of the mounting hole. Push the sensor
in until it snaps into place on the metal retaining clip.
c. Install secondary (yellow) retaining clip over wheel speed sensor head and engage the tabs on each side.
15. Install the park brake cable into its mounting hole in the adapter. Be sure all the locking tabs on the park brake cable retainer are expanded out to
ensure the cable will not pull out of the adapter.
16. Install the end of the park brake cable on the park brake actuator lever (Fig. 135).
17. Attach park brake cable to adapter using mounting bolt.
18. Remove the locking pliers (Fig. 131) from the front park brake cable.
19. Adjust the park brake drum-in-hat brake shoes.
20. Install the rotor on the hub/bearing.
21. Carefully lower caliper and brake shoes over rotor and onto the adapter using the reverse procedure for removal (Fig. 133).
CAUTION: When installing guide pin bolts extreme caution should be taken not to crossthread the caliper guide pin bolts.
22. Install the caliper guide pin bolts (Fig. 132). Tighten the guide pin bolts to a torque of 35 Nm (26 ft. lbs.).
23. AWD only - Clean all foreign material off the threads of the outer C/V joint stub shaft. Install the washer and hub nut (Fig. 130) on the stub shaft
of the outer C/V joint.
24. AWD only - Set the parking brake.
25. AWD only - Tighten the hub nut to a torque of 244 Nm (180 ft. lbs.).
26. AWD only - Install the spring washer (Fig. 129) on the stub shaft of the outer C/V joint.
27. AWD only - Install the nut retainer and cotter pin (Fig. 128) on the stub shaft of the outer C/V joint.
28. Install the wheel and tire assembly Tighten the wheel mounting stud nuts in proper sequence until all nuts are torqued to half specification. Then
repeat the tightening sequence to the full specified torque of 135 Nm (100 ft. lbs.).
29. Lower vehicle.
30. Fully apply and release the park brake pedal one time. This will seat and correctly adjust the park brake cables.
CAUTION: Before moving vehicle, pump the brake pedal several times to insure the vehicle has a firm brake pedal to adequately stop vehicle.
31. Road test the vehicle and make several stops to wear off any foreign material on the brakes and to seat the brake shoe linings.
