PRECAUTION (FRONT AND REAR AXLE)
Wheel and Tire Removal/Installation
1. The removal and installation procedures for the wheels and tires are not mentioned in this section. When a wheel is removed, tighten it to 88-118 N·m {9.0-12.0 kgf·m, 65.0-87.0 ft·lbf}

Caution
- Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces. If brake fluid gets on a painted surface, wipe it off immediately.
1. Tighten the brake pipe flare nut using the SST
