1. Brake the vehicle with the parking brake and install the anti-rollback stops ("shoes") under the rear wheels.
2. Loosen the hub nut and wheel mounting bolts. Jack up the front of the car and place it on supports. Remove the wheel.
Warning: Loosen and tighten the wheel bolts and hub nut only with the vehicle on the ground.
3. Remove the front wheel brake caliper assembly (see "Replacing the front wheel brake caliper"), without disconnecting the brake hose, and secure it with wire, preventing the hose from twisting or being pulled.
4. Loosen the nut and remove the ball joint pin of the steering tie rod end from the steering knuckle boss (see "Replacing the outer tie rod end").
5. Remove the brake disc (see "Replacing the brake disc").
6. Remove the three bolts securing the brake shield to the steering knuckle...
7. ...and take it off.
8. Unscrew the front wheel hub nut.
9. Loosen the nuts of the bolts securing the steering knuckle to the shock absorber strut and remove the bolts.
10. Remove the ball joint pin from the steering knuckle (see "Replacing the front suspension arm").
11. Push out of the hub (towards the gearbox), as far as possible, the splined tailpiece of the outer constant velocity joint (CV joint) of the front wheel drive.
Warning: Be careful not to let the drive shaft come out of the axle gear as the joint rollers may fall into the transmission housing.
Helpful advice: If it is difficult to remove the outer joint tailpiece, carefully, without damaging the threads, knock it out of the hub with a hammer through a drift or a wooden block of a suitable size.
12. Holding the drive shaft from dropping sharply, remove the steering knuckle assembly with the hub.
13. Hang the drive shaft on the wire.
14. Install the parts in the reverse order of removal. Tighten the bolts and nuts to the torque specified in Appendix 1.
