INSPECTION AND DISASSEMBLY
TIRE (!5-61)

Inspect the play of the wheel bearings by hand while they are
in the wheel. Rotate the inner race by hand to inspect it for
abnormal noise and smooth rotation.
Replace the wheel bearings if there is anything unusual. Remove
the wheel bearings as follows:
FRONT WHEEL
Make sure that the wheel runout (axial and radial) does not
exceed the service limit when checked as shown. An excessive
amount of runout is usually due to worn or loose wheel bearings
and can be corrected by replacing the bearings. If bearing
replacement fails to reduce the runout, replace the wheel.
