Hey guys, I'm in the process of taking of my whole trailing arm and LCA off my 98 LS Teg. The problem I come across is taking off the brake lines off the hub. There are 3 lines... the brake, E-brake, and ABS I belive... do I need to disassemble the whole hub to take those line off...? Is there any how to around here...?

 

There is an abs which needs to be removed. There is a cover with two bolts and the actual sensor is held on by two bolts.

The brake line is also held on by two bolts.

The ebrake cable can be removed by letting the ebrake down and I believe there is a cotter pin securing it in place. Just remove that and I think it slides out.

Also the abs sensor line and ebrake lines are attachd to the trailing arm with some brackets remeber to follow these lines and remove all the bolts.

Honestly its pretty easily just take your time and look over everything.

So I don't need to take the hub apart then...?

 

Nope, you don't need to remove the hub to remove the trailing and lower control arm.

To remove the trailing arm remove the bolts to the upper control arm. The two bolts to the rear trailing arm bushing, the bolt to the the lower control arm, the bolt thats near the end of the sideskirt which adjusts the toe (can't remember what it is called). Also you need to remove any brake lines. You could keep the rotor and caliper on if you like.

I mean to take off the brake line itself... like ABS line, E brake, and brake line so they won't be connected to the trailing arm/LCA when removing.
