Verify the lug quantity matches the 5-lug configuration. Since this assembly does not include an ABS sensor cord, confirm the existing ABS sensor and wiring harness are in good condition. Proper torque specifications should be followed to avoid premature wear or damage. It is recommended to inspect related suspension components during installation for overall driveline integrity.
