GENERAL INFORMATION
BASE BRAKE SYSTEM COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
The standard brake system on this vehicle contains
the same components as brake systems described in
group 5 of the service manual, with the exception of
the brake pedal system and master cylinder. These
differences are mainly related to service procedures.
The major differences are as follows:
²Use of a torque shaft assembly to transfer brake
pedal travel to the power brake booster and master
cylinder on the left side of the vehicle
²A unique power brake booster and master cylin-
der.
Refer to the Base Brake System Component
Description in the General Information section of
group 5 for more information on components used in
the base brake system.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
MASTER CYLINDER
The master cylinder used on this vehicle functions
the same as master cylinders used in other brake
systems. Refer to the Master Cylinder in the Descrip-
tion and Operation section of group 5 for more infor-
mation.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
REAR DRUM BRAKE ADJUSTMENT
The rear drum brakes on front wheel drive vehicles
automatically adjust, when required, during the nor-
mal operation of the vehicle every time the brakes
are applied. Use the following procedure to test the
operation of the automatic adjuster.
Place the vehicle on a hoist with a helper in the
driver's seat to apply the brakes. Remove the access
plug from the adjustment slot in each brake support
plate to provide visual access of brake adjuster star
wheel. Disconnect parking brake cable from one side
of the vehicle at the equalizer under the vehicle at
the left frame rail. Working on the side of the vehicle
that parking brake cable is connected to, hold the
adjuster lever off the star wheel with a suitable tool,
and loosen the star wheel approximately 30 notches
in relation to the adjuster lever. This is to eliminate
the possibility that the brake is already properly
adjusted. Reconnect the parking brake cable and
repeat the procedure for the other side of the vehicle.
Fig. 1 Master Cylinder Assembly
NS/GSBRAKES 5 - 1

Upon application of the brake pedal, the lever
should move down, turning the star wheel. A definite
rotation of the star wheel should be seen if the auto-
matic adjuster is working properly. If no rotation of
the star wheel is observed when the pedal is consec-
utively pressed and released, the respective drum
will have to be removed and the adjuster serviced.
MASTER CYLINDER FLUID LEVEL CHECK
The master cylinder used in this vehicle has the
same fluid level markings as the master cylinders
used in other brake systems on the side of the fluid
resevoir. Refer to the Master Cylinder Fluid Level
Check in the Diagnosis and Testing section of group
5 for more information

GENERAL INFORMATION
CLUTCH COMPONENTS
The clutch used in the 2.0 liter and 2.4 liter gaso-
line engine is a single, dry-disc modular clutch
assembly. The modular clutch assembly combines the
pressure plate cover, pressure plate, disc, and fly-
wheel into one unit. The unit rides on the input shaft
of the transmission and is bolted to the drive plate
mounted on the rear of the crankshaft. The clutch
used in the 2.5 liter diesel engine is a conventional
clutch and pressure plate arrangement.
CLUTCH CABLE AND PEDAL Ð LHD
The clutch cable has a unique self-adjuster mecha-
nism built into the cable which compensates for
clutch disc wear. The cable requires no maintenance
or lubrication. There are no serviceable components
on the cable assembly.The clutch pedal is connected to the cable through
a plastic spacer (Fig. 1). The upper end of the clutch
pedal pivots in the pedal bracket on two nylon bush-
ings and a shaft (Fig. 2). These bushings are greased
during assembly and do not require periodic lubrica-
tion.
