To complete the work you will need:
- inspection ditch or overpass;
- car stand;
- jack.
Sequence of execution
1. Prepare the car for work (see "Preparing the car for maintenance and repair"). We install stops under the front wheels and hang up the rear of the car.
2. Remove the rear wheels (see "Wheel - replacement").
3. Disconnect the rear brake pipes from the rear brake cylinders (see "Rear Brake Cylinders - Removal and Installation").
4. Disconnect the ABS wiring harness connector (see k, 195, "Rear wheel hub - replacement").
5. Using the TORX E10 key, unscrew the bolt securing the brake pipe bracket and the ABS wiring harness and the left and right rear suspension beam arms.
6. Disconnect the main parking brake cables from the wheel cables and remove them from the brackets on the rear suspension beam arms (see "Parking Brake Cables - Replacement").
7. Install supports under the rear suspension torsion beam.
8. Unscrew the lower shock absorber mounting bolts and remove the rear springs (see "Rear suspension springs - replacement").
9. Using an 18 mm wrench, unscrew the nuts securing the beam to the brackets on the left and right sides, holding the bolts from turning with a second wrench of the same size.
10. Using the TORX E18 key, unscrew the three bolts securing the rear suspension beam bracket to the body on the left and right sides and remove the beam.
11. Remove the bolts securing the beam to the brackets.
12. Remove the beam brackets.
13. If necessary, use a 16 mm socket wrench to loosen the four hub mounting nuts (see "Rear wheel hub - replacement").
14. Remove the hub assembly with the brake mechanism.
15. Remove the second hub in the same way.
16. Install the parts in the reverse order. Finally tighten the nuts of the beam arm mounting bolts to the body brackets with the vehicle standing on the ground. Tighten the bolts and nuts to the specified torques (see Fig. "Reference data").
