REPAIR POWER STEERING BOX
Service repair no - 57.10.01
General precautions
1.Whenever any part of system, is removed or
disconnected, utmost cleanliness must be
observed.
2.Disconnected ports and hoses must be plugged
to prevent ingress of dirt. If metal sediment is
found in system, establish cause rectify and
flush system.
3.Do not start engine until reservoir is full as pump
will be damaged.
4.Metric pipe fittings are used with 'O' ring pipe
ends on fittings to steering box.
5.Follow normal 'O' ring replacement procedure
whenever pipes are disconnected.
6.Ensure compatible metric components when
fitting replacement pipes.
CAUTION: Before removing any parts of
steering linkage, it is imperative that road
wheels are positioned straight ahead.
Then steering wheel removed to prevent rotary
coupler being wound up or damaged.
CAUTION: After refitting steering linkage
parts follow correct procedure to ensure
that road wheels, steering box and
steering wheel are correctly positioned relative to
each other when in straight ahead condition. If
steering wheel requires repositioning, ensure that
drive pegs on rotary coupler are correctly
positioned before steering wheel is replaced.
This ensures drive pegs locate in their holes in
rear of steering wheel.
After final alignment connect rotary coupler
multiplug, tighten steering wheel securing nut and
fit air bag - if fitted or steering wheel trim pad.
NOTE: When drag link is disconnected
from steering box, travel available at
steering wheel to each full lock is not
equal.
Remove
1.Site vehicle on level surface.
2.Open bonnet[hood].
3.Remove filler cap from power steering fluid
reservoir.
4.Clean steering box.
5.Disconnect feed and return pipes from steering
box.
6.Plug open pipes and steering box ports to
prevent ingress of dirt.
7.Support chassis front on axle stands. Or raise
vehicle on a hoist.
WARNING: Ensure wheels are chocked,
parking brake is applied, and low range
selected.

BRAKES

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION BRAKES
Discovery vehicles have servo assisted brake
systems and the option of an anti-lock brake system.
Information in this section refers to components
relevant to both brake systems. Where the system
components are different they are referred to as ABS
or NON ABS
BRAKE SYSTEM NON ABS
Description
The servo assisted hydraulic braking system is the
dual line type, incorporating primary and secondary
hydraulic circuits.
NOTE: References made to primary or
secondary do not imply main service
brakes or emergency brakes but denote
hydraulic line identification.
The brake pedal is connected to a vacuum assisted
mechanical servo which in turn operates a tandem
master cylinder. The front disc brake calipers each
house four pistons, these pistons are fed by the
secondary hydraulic circuit. The rear disc brake
calipers each house two pistons, these are fed by the
primary hydraulic circuit via a pressure reducing valve.
A brake fluid level switch is incorporated into the
reservoir cap assembly, the switch will immediately
illuminate a warning light in the instrument binnacle
indicating low fluid or sudden fluid loss.
The brake fluid reservoir is divided, the section closest
to the servo feeds the primary circuit and the section
furthest from the servo feeds the secondary circuit.
Under normal operating conditions both the primary
and secondary circuits operate simultaneously on
brake pedal application. In the event of a failure in the
primary circuit the secondary circuit will still function. If
the secondary circuit fails the primary circuit will still
function. The brake pedal travel will be longer in the
event of a half system failure.If the servo should fail, both hydraulic circuits will still
function but would require greater pedal effort due to
the lack of vacuum assistance. The hand operated
parking brake acts on a brake drum at the rear of the
transfer gearbox and is completely independent of the
hydraulic circuits.

REPAIR 13.Apply brake fluid to new seal. Fit seal into
groove in bore. When seal is seated it feels
raised to touch at edge furthest away from
mouth of bore.
14.Coat piston with brake fluid. Insert it squarely
into bore. Do not tilt piston during insertion and
leave 8mm projecting from bore.
15.Coat a new wiper seal with brake fluid and fit to
new seal retainer. Slide assembly, seal first, over
protruding piston into bore recess.
16.Using special tool LRT-70-500 - piston clamp,
press home seal retainer and piston.
Mounting inboard piston
17.Carry out same procedure as for removing and
fitting outboard piston and seals, instructions 8 to
16.
Fit calipers and pads to vehicle
18.Fit caliper to axle, tighten two bolts evenly to
82
Nm.
19.Connect brake pipe to caliper. Tighten to15Nm.
20.Remove clamp from flexible brake hose.
21.Insert pads and retaining springs, secure in
position with new retaining pins and spread
ends. Note correct position of retaining springs.
22.Bleed brake system.See Brake System Bleed
23.Press brake pedal firmly several times to locate
pads.
24.Fit road wheels, remove axle stands and finally
tighten road wheel nuts,
25.Road test vehicle. Note new brake pads require
'bedding-in', for several hundred miles before
brakes are at maximum efficiency.

REPAIR WHEELS
Remove
WARNING: The parking brake acts on
transmission, not rear wheels, and may
not hold vehicle when jacking unless
following procedure is used. If one front wheel
and one rear wheel is raised no vehicle holding or
braking effect is possible. Wheels MUST be
chocked in all circumstances.
Apply parking brake, select 'P' or a gear in main
gearbox and engage low gear in transfer box.
1.Loosen five wheel nuts.
2.Using a suitable trolley jack raise vehicle and
place on axle stands.
See INTRODUCTION,
Information, Jacking
3.Remove wheel nuts and carefully withdraw
wheel over studs.Refit
4.Ensure that retaining studs and nuts are clean.
5.Alloy wheels: Lightly coat wheel mounting spigot
face with a suitable anti-seize compound to
minimise possibility of adhesion between wheel
and spigot face.
6.Refit wheel taking care not to damage stud
threads. (Do not apply oil)
7.Fit wheel nuts and turn by hand for at least three
full threads before using any form of wheel
wrench.
8.Tighten nuts as much as possible using a
suitable wrench.
9.Lower vehicle and finally tighten nuts to correct
torque sequence shown. Alloy wheels and steel
wheels:
