5. OPERATION
5.1.  Removingthedriveangehousing,completewithtaperrolleredwheelbearingfromthesuspensionstrut.
5.1.1. Referring to the vehicle manufacturer’s manual, remove the ABS sensor and caliper and place carefully to one side.
5.1.2. Referring to the vehicle manufacturer’s manual, remove the drive shaft hub (a split pin, castellated nut, nut and washer). Gently drift
out the hub with a copper mallet.
5.1.3. Remove the 5 screws (size 50 Torx) xing the bearing housing to the suspension strut through the wheel mounting ange clearance
holes. These 5 screws are used to x the ange adaptor in 5.1.5.
5.1.4. From the rear of the suspension strut, insert the large adaptor (item 3) spigot rst into the drive ange bore in g.2.
5.1.5. With the ange leading, align the 5 holes of the ange adaptor (item 2) with the 5 x M10 tapped holes in the suspension strut in g.2.
Fix with the 5 screws removed in 5.1.3.
5.1.6. Lubricate the thread of the force screw with a copper based grease or similar product.
5.1.7. Thread the force screw, tapered end leading, clockwise through the boss of the adaptor, winding until solid resistance is felt. The
solid resistance will be the large adaptor (item 3). A 5.5mm gap should become apparent between the hexagon and the ram head,
see g.3.
5.1.8. With a copper head mallet, strike the ram head square on the end to overcome any residual adhesion of housing spigot and
suspension strut bore. This will initiate bearing housing removal; strike the ram again if required.
5.1.9. Observe the decrease in the “slide gap”. Rotate the threaded force screw barrel clockwise to increase the gap back to 5.5mm again.
Continue to rotate the force screw, whilst supporting the bearing housing until fully removed. Alternatively, if the housing spigot is not
“seized” a 30mm spanner can be used to slowly extract the hub at 1.6mm per turn.
5.2. Taper roller bearing removal.
5.2.1. Insert the spigot of the small adaptor (item 4), into the bearing bore as shown in g.4.
5.2.2. Fit the ange adaptor (item 2) to the bearing housing with the ve sets of xings (item 5). Torque equally.
5.2.3. Lubricate the thread of the force screw with a copper based grease or similar product.
5.2.4. Thread the force screw, tapered end leading, clockwise through the boss of the adaptor, winding until solid resistance is felt. The
solid resistance will be the small adaptor (item 4). A 5.5mm gap should become apparent between the hexagon and the ram head, g.4.
5.2.5. With a copper head mallet, strike the ram head square on the end to overcome any residual adhesion of the bearing and housing
bore. This will initiate bearing removal; strike the ram again if required.
5.2.6. Observe the decrease in the “slide gap”. Rotate the threaded force screw barrel clockwise to increase the gap back to 5.5mm again.
With caution repeat actions from 5.2.4 and 5.2.5 until the bearing is removed.
