Q: How to remove and install a Steering Knuckle on Honda CR-V?
A: Loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the wheel. Remove the driveaxle/hub nut. Remove the brake caliper and support it with a piece of wire. Remove the caliper mounting bracket, then remove the brake disc from the hub. Remove the stabilizer end link nut. Mark the strut to the steering knuckle then remove the strut-to-steering knuckle nuts, but do not remove the bolts. Detach the ABS wheel speed sensor from the steering knuckle. Separate the Control Arm from the balljoint. Detach the tie-rod end from the steering knuckle. Push the driveaxle from the hub. Support the end of the driveaxle with a piece of wire. Remove the bolts and separate the steering knuckle from the strut. Installation is the reverse of removal. Guide the knuckle and hub assembly into position, inserting the driveaxle into the hub. Push the knuckle into the strut flange and install the bolts and nuts, but don't tighten them yet. Connect the balljoint to the control arm and tighten the fasteners. Tighten the strut bolt nuts and the tie-rod end nut. Place the brake disc on the hub and install the caliper mounting bracket and caliper. Install the driveaxle/hub nut and tighten it. Install the wheel and lug nuts. Lower the vehicle and tighten the lug nuts. Have the front wheel alignment checked and, if necessary, adjusted.
Q: How Do You remove a rear Trailing Arm and Steering Knuckle on Honda CR-V?
A: Loosen the rear wheel lug nuts, raise the rear of the vehicle, support it on jackstands, and block the front wheels. Remove the wheel. If working on a CR-V, detach the ABS wheel speed sensor harness bracket from the upper arm. Support the trailing arm with a floor jack. Remove the upper arm-to-knuckle bolt and the inner end bolt(s) of the arm. For installation, reverse the removal process, ensuring the trailing arm is raised with the floor jack to simulate normal ride height before fully tightening the fasteners. Tighten all fasteners and the wheel lug nuts. Support the trailing arm again and unbolt the brake hose and ABS sensor mounting brackets. Remove the rear undercarriage splash shield if applicable. Mark the relationship of the toe adjusting cam on the trailing arm-to-knuckle bolt. Remove the lower shock absorber bolt and the trailing arm-to-knuckle bolts. Suspend the knuckle with a cord or wire. Disconnect the stabilizer bar link from the trailing arm. If working on a Civic, remove the shock absorber lower mounting bolt, trailing arm-to-chassis front mounting bolts, and slowly lower the jack to remove the coil spring. Remove the trailing arm-to-chassis pivot bolt and the trailing arm. Installation involves aligning marks on the adjuster cam and the trailing arm, raising the trailing arm to simulate ride height, and tightening fasteners to the right torque specifications. Check and adjust the rear wheel alignment if necessary. If working on an AWD CR-V, remove the drive axle/hub nut. Remove the brake drum or brake caliper and disc. Remove parking brake shoes, wheel speed sensor, and parking brake cable. Disconnect the trailing arm from the knuckle after supporting the trailing arm and remove the rear wheel bearing hub assembly. On drum brake models, remove the brake backing plate with brake shoes attached. Remove the fasteners connecting the knuckle to the upper arm and trailing arm, marking the cam bolt position. Installation involves raising the trailing arm to simulate ride height, aligning matchmarks on the toe adjusting cam, tightening all fasteners to the proper specifications, and ensuring the caliper mounting bolts are tightened correctly. It's not necessary to bleed the brakes unless a hydraulic fitting was loosened. Check and adjust rear wheel alignment if required.
