8) Connect brake pipe to wheel cylinder and tighten brake pipe
flare nut to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Brake pipe flare nut (b) : 16 N·m (1.6 kg-m, 11.5 lb-ft)
9) Refill rear axle (differential) housing with new specified gear
oil. Refer to Section 7F for refill.
10) Install brake drum. For details, refer to “BRAKE DRUM” of
Section 5.
11) Connect parking brake cable (1) to parking brake shoe lever.
Secure parking brake cable to brake back plate with clip (2).
Install wheel speed sensor (if equipped with ABS).
12) Fill reservoir with brake fluid and bleed brake system. (For
bleeding operation, refer to “BLEEDING BRAKES” in Sec-
tion 5.)
13) Install wheel and tighten wheel nuts to specified torque.
14) Upon completion of all jobs, pull parking brake lever with
about 20 kg, (44 lbs) load three to five times so as to obtain
proper drum-to-shoe clearance.
Adjust parking brake cable (for adjustment, refer to “PARK-
ING BRAKE INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT” in Section
5).

Special tool
(A) : 09913-50121
INSTALLATION
1) Using special tools, drive in oil seal (1) or (2) until it contacts
oil seal protector (3) in axle housing.
Special tools
(A) : 09924-74510
(B) : 09944-67010
“A” : Grease 99000-25010
2) For procedure hereafter, refer to steps 5) to 7) of “REAR
AXLE SHAFT AND WHEEL BEARING” in this section.
REAR AXLE HOUSING (4WD VEHICLE)
REMOVAL
1) Hoist vehicle.
2) Remove rear axle shaft referring to item 2) to 8) of “REAR
AXLE SHAFT AND WHEEL BEARING” in this section.
3) Disconnect brake pipe from flexible hose and remove E-ring.

5) Remove parking brake cable clamps and disconnect parking
brake cable from axle housing.
6) Remove wheel speed sensor and release clamps from axle
housing (if equipped with ABS).
7) Remove LSPV adjust nut and detach spring end from rear
axle housing (if equipped with LSPV).
2. Axle housing
NOTE:
There are 2 types of oil seal ((1) & (2)). Their shapes are dif-
ferent as shown in the figure but they are both usable.
Special Tool (B) can be used for both oil seals (1) and (2).
Make sure that oil seal is free from inclination as it is
installed.
Refer to the figure to check that oil seal is installed in
proper direction.
CAUTION:
When installing oil seal (2), never hit any part other than
the position indicated as (6) in the figure. Make sure to
use special tools indicated below. Failure to observe this
caution will cause oil seal to be deformed and oil leakage
to occur.

5) If rear brake pressure is not within specification, adjust it by
changing bolt (2) position as follows.
If rear brake pressure is higher than specification, move bolt
(2) center side and if it is lower, out side.
Repeat steps 3) and 4) until rear brake pressure is within
specification.
After adjustment, be sure to torque nut (1) to specification.
Tightening torque
LSPV nut (a) : 25 N·m (2.5 kg-m, 18.0 lb-ft)
6) Upon completion of fluid pressure test, bleed brake system
and perform brake test.
MASTER CYLINDER AND BRAKE FLUID
LEVEL INSPECTION
1) Check master cylinder and reservoir tank for crack, damage
and brake fluid leakage. If any faulty condition exists, correct
or replace.
2) Check that brake fluid level is between MAX and MIN marks
on reservoir tank.
2
1, (a)
NOTE:
Be sure to use particular brake fluid either as indicated
on reservoir cap of that vehicle or recommended in
owner’s manual which comes along with that vehicle.
Use of any other fluid is strictly prohibited.
Fluid level should be between MIN and MAX lines marked
on reservoir.
When brake warning lamp lights sometimes during driv-
ing, replenish fluid to MAX level.
When fluid decreases quickly, inspect brake system for
leakage. Correct leaky points and then refill to specified
level.
CAUTION:
Do not use shock absorber fluid or any other fluid which
contains mineral oil. Do not use a container which has
been used for mineral oil or a container which is wet from
water. Mineral oil will cause swelling and distortion of
rubber parts in hydraulic brake system and water mixed
into brake fluid will lower fluid boiling point. Keep all fluid
containers capped to prevent contamination.
