DRUM
STANDARD PROCEDURE - BRAKE DRUM
MACHINING
Measure the runout and diameter of the rear brake
using only accurate measuring equipment. There
should be no variation in the drum diameter greater
than 0.090 mm (0.004 inch). Drum runout should not
exceed 0.15 mm (0.006 inch) out of round. If the
drum runout or diameter variation exceed these val-
ues the drum should be refaced. For best results in
eliminating the irregularities that cause brake rough-
ness and surge, the amount of material removed dur-
ing a single cut should be limited to 0.13 mm (0.005
inch). When the entire braking surface has been
cleaned, a final cut of 0.0254 mm (0.001 inch) will
assure a good drum surface providing the equipment
used is capable of the precision required for resurfac-
ing brake drums. Deeper cuts are permissible for the
sole purpose of removing deep score marks.Do not
reface more than 1.52 mm (0.060 inch) over the
standard drum diameter.
All drums will show markings of maximum allow-
able diameter (Fig. 45). For example, a drum will
have a marking of MAX. DIA. 251.55 mm (9.90 inch).
This marking includes 0.76 mm (0.030 inch) for
allowable drum wear beyond the recommended 1.52
mm (0.060 inch) of drum refacing.

FLUID
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - BRAKE FLUID
CONTAMINATION
Indications of fluid contamination are swollen or
deteriorated rubber parts.
Swollen rubber parts indicate the presence of
petroleum in the brake fluid.
To test for contamination, put a small amount of
drained brake fluid in clear glass jar. If fluid sepa-
rates into layers, there is mineral oil or other fluid
contamination of the brake fluid.
If brake fluid is contaminated, drain and thor-
oughly flush system. Replace master cylinder, propor-
tioning valve, caliper seals, wheel cylinder seals,
Antilock Brake hydraulic unit and all hydraulic fluid

PROPORTIONING VALVE
DESCRIPTION - PROPORTIONING VALVE
(HEIGHT SENSING)
NOTE: Only vehicles without antilock brakes (ABS)
have a proportioning valve. Vehicles with ABS uti-
lize electronic brake distribution which is controlled
through the ABS integrated control unit.
Vehicles not equipped with ABS use a height sens-
ing proportioning valve. It is mounted to the body of
the vehicle above the rear axle (Fig. 61). It has an
actuator lever that attaches to the rear axle and
moves with the axle to help the valve sense the vehi-
cle height.
CAUTION: The height sensing proportioning valve
is not adjustable. No attempt should be made to
adjust it. It is replaced as a complete assembly.
CAUTION: The use of after-market load leveling or
load capacity increasing devices on this vehicle are
prohibited. Using air shock absorbers or helper
springs on this vehicle will cause the height sens-
ing proportioning valve to inappropriately reduce
the hydraulic pressure to the rear brakes. This inap-
propriate reduction in hydraulic pressure potentially
could result in increased stopping distance of the
vehicle.
