Toyota 43211-04060 Knuckle, Steering, RH

Disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the front of the vehicle, and support it securely on jackstands while applying the parking brake. Remove the wheel. For 4WD and PreRunner models, remove the brake hose/line bracket, the wheel speed sensor, and the wiring harness bracket from the steering knuckle. Remove the brake caliper and brake disc, hanging the caliper with a length of wire to avoid stress on the brake line. Disconnect the tie-rod end from the steering knuckle. For 4WD and PreRunner models, disconnect the stabilizer bar link from the steering knuckle. On 4WD models, remove the driveaxle/hub nut. Disconnect the upper and lower control arms from the steering knuckle, then remove the steering knuckle, guiding the driveaxle out of the hub while being careful not to overextend the inner CV joint. Support the driveaxle with a length of wire. Installation is the reverse of removal, ensuring all suspension fasteners are tightened to the specified torque values and all other fasteners are secured. The upper and lower control arm pivot bolts should be tightened with the vehicle at normal ride height, which can be achieved after assembly by lowering the vehicle to the ground and bouncing it a few times or by using a floor jack to raise the lower control arm. Finally, tighten the lug nuts to the specified torque.
