General Description
Two universal non-constant velocity joints which are called cardan joints are provided on front propeller shaft
and one universal non-constant velocity joint, two universal constant velocity joints and a rubber mounting cen-
ter support are provided on rear propeller shaft. On the front end of rear propeller shaft, cardan joint same as
that of front propeller shaft is provided. On the rear end of rear propeller shaft, ball fixed type constant velocity
joint (BJ) is provided. On the middle of rear propeller shaft, double offset type constant velocity joint (DOJ) is
provided just behind the center support.
Most universal joints require no maintenance. They are lubricated for life and can not be lubricated on the vehi-
cle. If a universal joint becomes noisy or worn, it must be replaced.
The propeller shaft is a balanced unit. Handle it carefully so that balance can be maintained.NOTE:

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:
Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service
on or around the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in
unintentional activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system
may be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
NOTE:
For the description (items) not found in this section refer to the same section of the Service Manual
mentioned in the FOREWORD of this manual.
When inspecting and servicing vehicle equipped with ABS, be sure to refer to section 5E2 first.
All brake fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital
parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of
same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a
replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified
during reassembly to assure proper retention of all parts. There is to be no welding as it may result
in extensive damage and weakening of the metal.

On-Vehicle Service
Front Brake Hose/Pipe
REMOVAL
1) Raise and suitably support vehicle. Remove tire and wheel.
This operation is not necessary when removing pipes connecting master cylinder and flexible hose.
2) Clean dirt and foreign material from both hose end or pipe end fittings. Remove brake hose or pipe.
INSTALLATION
1) Reverse removal procedure for brake hose and pipe installation procedure.
For installation, make sure that steering wheel is in straightforward position and hose has no twist or kink.
Check to make sure that hose doesn't contact any part of suspension, both in extreme right and extreme left
turn conditions. If it does at any point, remove and correct. Fill and maintain brake fluid level in reservoir.
Bleed brake system.
2) Perform brake test and check installed part for fluid leakage.

Master Cylinder Assembly
REMOVAL
1) Disconnect reservoir lead wire (1) at coupler.
2) Clean around reservoir cap (2) and take out fluid with
syringe or such.
3) Disconnect brake pipes from master cylinder (3) and ABS
actuator (4).
INSPECTION
Inspect distance “A” to be the following.
Distance “A” :
57.4 mm (2.26 in) or more
If measurement is out of above specification, replace master cyl-
inder assembly.
INSTALLATION
1) Install master cylinder to brake booster.
2) Tighten master cylinder attaching nuts to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Master cylinder attaching nut (b) :
13 N·m (1.3 kg-m, 9.5 lb-ft)
3) Connect hydraulic lines to master cylinder and ABS actuator
and tighten flare nuts to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Brake pipe flare nut (c) : 16 N·m (1.6 kg-m, 12.0 lb-ft)
4) Connect reservoir lead wire (1).
5) Fill reservoir with specified brake fluid.
6) After installing, check brake pedal play and bleed air from
system (Refer to “BRAKE PEDAL PLAY CHECK” and
“BLEEDING BRAKE” in Section 5).
7) Perform brake test and check each installed part for fluid
leakage. NOTE:
