During Wheel Assembly Replacement, what is the primary action?

• A. Remove and replace wheel assembly; check for leaks
• B. Replace brake pads
• C. Adjust steering linkage
• D. Lubricate bearings

Answer: (A)

Wheel assembly replacement is mainly about removing the worn wheel assembly and installing a new one, making sure it’s properly seated and torqued to specification. After mounting the new wheel, you check for leaks around the hub seals and brake components to ensure the system remains intact and safe. The other tasks—replacing brake pads, adjusting steering linkage, or lubricating bearings—are separate maintenance steps and not the focus of replacing the wheel assembly.
