- Place the steering knuckle with the wheel hub on the end of the drive shaft and temporarily place the ball joint on the wishbone. Wrap the cuff with a thick cloth to avoid damaging it during further work. Insert the upper projection of the steering knuckle between the clamps of the shock absorber strut. If necessary, tap the steering knuckle with a soft metal hammer.
- Hammer the bolts into the shock absorber strut at the rear (be careful not to damage the threads) and tighten the nuts to a torque of 255 Nm.
- While doing this, hold the bolt heads with a wrench.
- Place the brake disc on the wheel hub, observing the markings made before removal.
- Install the brake caliper and tighten the bolts to a tightening torque of 94 Nm. Check that the brake hose is not twisted.
- Connect the steering tip to the control arm and tighten the nut to a tightening torque of 50 Nm. Insert a new cotter pin.
- Tighten the 2 nuts and bolt on the underside of the wishbone to a tightening torque of 127 Nm. Hold the bolt heads with a wrench.
- Install the wheel and lower the car. Tighten the handbrake to 190 Nm, lock the nut and install a new cotter pin. If the cotter pin does not fit, tighten the nut. Never loosen the nut when installing the cotter pin.
- After installing the wheel hub, check the front wheel alignment angles.
