Step 18: Get the gear in using the pump, so that it can be easily and completely inserted into the hub. Grease the hub lock actuator and the contact part of the wheel hub assembly.

Step 16: Disconnect the vacuum hoses and use a manual vacuum pump to install the new hub. Connect the pump to the large diameter nipple, then vacuum with the pump to draw in the hub lock actuator gear.

Step 17: For RWD mode, the vacuum pump operates and the hub lock actuator gear is drawn in, effectively disengaging the hub bearing transmission. For 4WD, the vacuum is off, and the hub lock actuator switches on and the transmission connects to the wheel hub.

For optimal installation of the part, it is necessary to screw in the part crosswise, screwing in the screws one by one until they make contact, using the ratchet.
