1. Measure the front axle middle boss O.D. at several points where it contacts with the bushing.
2. Measure the shaft bracket 1 bushing I.D. and bracket 2 bushing I.D. in the same method, and calculate the clearance.
3. If the clearance exceeds the allowable limit, replace them.
(When reassembling)
• Before press-fitting the bushing, install the new thrust collar.
• Install the oil seals, noting their direction. (Refer to figure left.)
