NOTE:
Before measurement, move ball stud at least ten times by hand to check for smooth movement.
• Hook a spring balance (A) at cotter pin mounting hole. Confirm

spring balance measurement value is within specifications when
ball stud begins moving.

- If swing torque exceeds standard range, replace transverse link

assembly.

Rotating Torque Inspection

• Attach mounting nut to ball stud. Make sure that rotating torque is

within specifications with a preload gauge (A) [SST: 3127S000 (J-
25765-A)]. 

- If rotating torque exceeds standard range, replace transverse link

assembly.

Axial End Play Inspection

• Move tip of ball stud in axial direction to check for looseness.

- If axial end play exceeds standard range, replace transverse link assembly.

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

1.

Check wheel sensor harness for proper connection. Refer to 

BRC-107, "FRONT WHEEL SENSOR :
