REMOVAL [ol][*]Raise vehicle.[*]Remove the cotter pin and nut lock (Half Shaft Retaining Nut) from the end of the half shaft.[*]Remove the wheel and tire assembly from the vehicle. (Refer to 22 - TIRES/WHEELS - REMOVAL)[*]Remove the wave washer (Wave Washer) from the end of the half shaft.[*]With the vehicle's brakes applied to keep hub from turning, loosen and remove the half shaft nut.[*]Remove the two front disc brake caliper adapter to steering knuckle attaching bolts (Front Brake Mounting).[*]Remove the disc brake caliper assembly from the steering knuckle. Caliper assembly is removed by first rotating top of caliper assembly away from steering knuckle and then removing bottom of assembly out from under machined abutment on steering knuckle.[*]Support disc brake caliper assembly by using a wire hook and suspending it from the strut assembly (Properly Supported Disc Brake Caliper - Typical). Do not allow the brake caliper assembly to hang by the brake flex hose.[*]Remove the brake rotor from the hub and bearing assembly.[*]Remove the steering knuckle-to-strut attachment bolts (Strut To Steering Knuckle Attaching Bolts) from the steering knuckle.[*]Pull the steering knuckle from the strut clevis bracket. NOTE: Care must be taken not to separate the inner C/V joint during this operation. Do not allow half shaft to hang by inner C/V joint after removing outer C/V Joint from the hub/bearing assembly in steering knuckle, end of half shaft must be supported.[*]Pull steering knuckle assembly down and away from the outer C/V joint of the half shaft assembly while pulling the joint out of the hub bearing.[*]Support the outer end of the half shaft assembly. Insert a pry bar between inner tripod joint and transaxle case (Disengaging Inner Tripod Joint From Transaxle). Pry against inner tripod joint, until tripod joint retaining snap-ring is disengaged from transaxle side gear.[*]Hold inner tripod joint and interconnecting shaft of half shaft assembly. Remove inner tripod joint from transaxle, by pulling it straight out of transaxle side gear and transaxle oil seal (Tripod Joint Removal from Transaxle). When removing tripod joint, do not let spline or snap-ring drag across sealing lip of the transaxle to tripod joint oil seal[/ol]
