>>B<< WASHER/DRIVESHAFT NUT
INSTALLATION

CAUTION

• Because the wheel speed detection magnetic encoder

is magnetized, it collects metallic particles easily. Make
sure that the magnetic encoder does not collect metal-
lic particles. Check that there is not any trouble prior to
reassembling it.

• When installing the drive shaft, make sure that it does

not contact with the wheel speed detection magnetic
encoder (integrated with the inner oil seal) to avoid
damage.

• Do not apply the vehicle weight on the rear wheel hub

assembly before fully tightening the driveshaft nuts.
Otherwise, the wheel bearing will be broken.

1. Incorporate the driveshaft washer as shown in the figure.
2. Use special tool MB990767 to tighten the driveshaft nuts. At

this time, tighten the nuts within the specified torque range
considering the final tightening.

Tightening torque: 144

− 176 N⋅m (107 − 129 ft-lb)

3. If the pin holes do not align with the pins, tighten the

driveshaft nut [less than 200 N

⋅m (147 ft-lb)] and find the

nearest hole then bend the cotter pin to fit it.

INSPECTION
