REMOVING AND REINSTALLING THE WHEEL HUB

After removing the planetary carrier and the sun gear
release the spindle-end nut (36).
With the clamping elements shown, clamp the wheel hub
elements together and remove the spindle end nut with
the nut spanner shown (Fig. 1.).
Remove the suspended wheel hub from the knuckle.
The wheel hub parts (inner part of the inner taper roller
bearing (32) and toothed spacer sleeve (5) clamped to-
gether with the locking elements are removed from the
knuckle by the seal ring (8) struck with surface sealant.
Application of the locking elements assures central po-
sitioning of the seal ring pressed in the wheel hub, when
removing and reinstalling the assembled wheel hub.
REINSTALLING THE WHEEL HUB
Reinstall the wheel hub pre-assembled and clamped
together by means of the clamping elements, on the
spindle according to Section 224.
Adjust the axial play of the wheel hub bearing support to
0.01 - 0.04 mm.
By means of the wrench Drw. No. 4983-00455 tighten
the inner shaft-end nut (36) — while continually rotating
and axially moving the wheel hub — so, the wheel hub
shall turn hard. By this means proper connection of the
bearings is assured. Fig. 1.: REMOVING THE SPINDLE END NUT
Back out the shaft-end nut and tighten again to 196 Nm
torque, then turn back by approx. 35º to 45º.
Position the lock plate, install the outer shaft-end nut and
tighten to 588 - 637 Nm torque.
By means of dial indicator check if the specified 0.01 -
0.04 mm axial play is obtained.
In case of improper bearing clearance repeat the adjust-
ment by properly turning back the shaft-end nut and
check procedures.
If the 0.01 - 0.04 mm axial play is adjusted secure the
shaft-end nuts by the lock plate (33).

This section contains the constructional elements
of the antilocking and anti-skid systems (ABS and

each axle type as well as the installation instruc-
tions.
The models given “TECHNICAL DATA” contain
the items (A,C) necessary at the installation of the
anti-lock and anti-skid systems (1).

REMOVING THE TIE-ROD

Remove the cotters and back out the castle nuts, then remove the linkages from the taper bore of the tie-rod arms
by pressing out the ball stud with the tool shown (Fig. 1.).
REINSTALLING THE TIE-ROD
Reinstall the tie-rod in reverse order of removal.
After reinstalling the tie-rod adjust the steering geometry
of the axle.

When reassembling the tie-rod make sure to check
if the distance (X) between the tie-rod end and
the ball stud centerline is nearly identical on both
sides.
After installing the tie-rod to the tie-rod arms and
