Loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, and support it securely on jackstands before removing the wheel. Remove the brake disc and disconnect the ABS wheel speed sensor connector. For 2008 and earlier models, disconnect the stabilizer bar link from the
Control Arm, then support the lower control arm with a jack and separate the ball joint from the
Steering Knuckle. For 2009 and later models, remove the steering knuckle. Remove the three hub mounting bolts from the backside of the steering knuckle and take out the hub and bearing assembly. Installation is the reverse of removal, ensuring the mating surfaces on the knuckle and the hub and bearing assembly are clean before installation, tightening the mounting bolts to the specified torque, installing the brake disc and caliper, and finally installing the wheel and wheel lug nuts. Lower the vehicle and tighten the nuts to the specified torque.
