Installation (Fig. 6)
1. Install spindle as follows:
A. Position king pin sleeve into the pivot hub of the
A–arm. Sleeve must extend through the bottom of
the hub.
B. Place thrust washer onto the bottom of the king
pin sleeve. Then position spindle over the hub, king
pin sleeve and thrust washer.
NOTE: Make sure cap screw (19) is inserted down
through the spindle and A–arm hub.
C. Install brake hose bracket (20) onto cap screw
(19). Secure spindle to A–arm hub with cap screw
(19) and lock nut. Torque lock nut from 75 to 100 ft–lb
(102 to 136 N–m).
D. Insert tie rod ball joints down through the spindle
and up through the Pitman arm. Secure with castle
nuts.
E. Torque castle nuts from 20 to 25 ft–lb (27 to 34
N–m) to secure ball joint while aligning castle nut slot
with hole in ball joint stud. If necessary to align holes,
castle nut torque may be slightly more than specifi-
cation. Install cotter pin.
2. Assemble wheel hub:
A. If bearing cups were removed from the wheel
hub, press inner and outer cups into the hub until
they seat against the hub shoulder.
B. Pack both bearings with grease. Install inner
bearing into the cup on inboard side of the wheel hub.
IMPORTANT: The lip seal must be pressed in so it is

be toward the bearing.
C. Apply grease to the inside of the new lip seal and
press it into the wheel hub.
D. If brake rotor was removed, apply Loctite #242 (or
equivalent) to socket head screws and install brake
rotor to hub. Make sure that the brake rotor bore
chamfer is assembled toward the wheel hub.
3. Slide wheel hub assembly onto spindle. Install outer
bearing, tab washer and jam nut onto spindle.
4. While rotating the wheel by hand, tighten the jam nut
from 75 to 100 in-lb (8.5 to 11.3 N–m) to set the bearings.
Then, loosen the nut until the hub has end play.
5. While rotating the wheel by hand, re-tighten the jam
nut from 15 to 20 in-lb (1.7 to 2.3 N–m).
6. Position nut retainer over jam nut and install cotter
pin through spindle shaft hole. Install dust cap to hub.
7. Install brake caliper to spindle (see Front Brake Cali-
pers in the Service and Repairs section of Chapter 4 –
Transaxle and Brakes).
8. Install wheel assembly with valve stem facing out.
Torque lug nuts from 45 to 65 ft–lb (61 to 88 N–m).
9. Lower machine to ground.
