Turn off air suspension switch (if equipped).
Switch is located behind right rear quarter panel. Raise and support front of vehicle.
Remove wheels.
Reinstall 3 lug nuts to secure rotor to hub. Check hub nut for correct torque. Using a dial indicator, measure axial end play at hub. Maximum axial end play is.003" (.08 mm). If reading exceeds specification, replace wheel bearing assembly
