To Check and Adjust End Float
To Check
Jack up the front of the vehicle untill the road
wheels are clear of the ground.
The bearing end float can be checked by grasping
the road wheel at the top and attempting to rock
it back and forward. A very slight end float should
be felt. If excessive rock is present (this must not
be confused with wear in the king pin and bushes)
adjustment must be carried out. This also applies
if the hub does no: spin freely due to the bearings
binding.

L.H. threads.

cab and remove cap.

and inner track assembly of the outer taper roller assembly.
