Honda CR-V: Front Driveshaft Installation
1. Apply grease to the contact area (A) of the outboard joint and front wheel bearing.
NOTE: Failure to apply grease may cause excessive noise and vibration.

3. Apply 0.5-1.0 g (0.02-0.04 oz) of grease to the whole splined surface (A) of the right driveshaft.
After applying grease, remove the grease from the splined grooves at intervals of 2-3 splines and from the set ring groove (B) so that air can bleed from the intermediate shaft.

6. Install the knuckle (A) onto the lower arm (B).
Then tighten the nuts and bolt (C) to the torque specification.
