Inspection
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Check the following items, and replace the parts if necessary.
Transverse Link
- Check the transverse link and bushing for deformation, cracks or damage.
- Check the ball joint boot for cracks or other damage, and also for
grease leaks.
Swing Torque
- Move the ball joint at least ten times by hand to check for smooth
movement with no binding.
- Hook the Tool (A) on the on ball joint (B). Confirm the measurement
value is within specifications when the ball joint begins
moving.

Tool number : — (J-44372)
Swing torque : Refer to FSU-23, "Ball Joint".
Measurement on
spring balance
: Refer to FSU-23, "Ball Joint"
- If swing torque exceeds standard range, replace the transverse
link.
Axial End Play
- Move the ball joint at least ten times by hand to check for smooth
movement.
- Move the tip of the ball joint in the axial direction to check for
looseness.
Axial end play : Refer to FSU-23, "Ball Joint".
- If the axial end play exceeds the standard value, replace the transverse
