REMOVAL
NOTICE:
Do not extend the pneumatic cylinder by itself. If the
cylinder is fully extended, it cannot be reused.
Do not replenish the pneumatic cylinder by itself with
air.
Do not remove the pneumatic cylinder with air in it.
If reusing the pneumatic cylinder, replace the 2 O±
rings, plate and connector No.2 with new ones.
When installing the pneumatic cylinder, keep the cyl-
inder length 260 mm (10.236 in.) or less.
1. BLEED AIR (See page SA±153)
HINT:
Disconnect the one touch air connector of the height control
valve and bleed the air.
2. REMOVE REAR PNEUMATIC CYLINDER
(a) Jack up the vehicle and support the frame with safety
stands.
NOTICE:
Do the work with the rear axle assy lowered.
Do the work with the shock absorber installed.
(b) Disconnect the height control tube.
(c) Remove the clip on the upper side of the rear pneumatic
cylinder.
HINT:
If the clip cannot be easily removed, thread a wire through
the hole to pull it.
When installing the clip, make sure that the center pin on
the upper side of the rear pneumatic cylinder is in the
slotted hole of the frame.
(d) Remove the rear pneumatic cylinder.

(f) Check that the lengths of the screw parts, ºAº in the il-
lustration, are within the standard values.
Standard length: 6.5 to 15.0 mm (0.26 to 0.59 in.)
(g) Change the vehicle height. (From the normal position to
the high position, and from the high position to the normal
position)
(h) Measure the vehicle height (C ± D measurement) on the
right side and left side.
(i) Check if the vehicle height (C ± D measurement) is within
the specified range.
HINT:
If the values are outside the standard, perform the procedures
from (d) to (i) again.

ON±VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK PEDAL HEIGHT
Pedal height from dash panel:
151.1 ± 165.1 mm (5.949 ± 6.500 in.)
NOTICE:
Do not adjust the pedal height. Doing so by changing the
push rod length of the brake booster will structurally
change the pedal ratio.
If the pedal height is incorrect, check that there is no damage
in brake pedal, brake pedal lever, brake pedal bracket and dash
panel.
Even if there is damage, there is no problem if the
reserve distance is within the standard value.
If necessary, replace them.
2. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST STOP LIGHT SWITCH
(a) Remove the front door scuff plate, cowl side trim, side
panel, lower finish panel and No. 2 heater to register duct
(See page BO±89).
(b) Loosen the stop light switch lock nut.
(c) Push the brake pedal in 5 ± 15 mm (0.20 ± 0.59 in.), turn
the stop light switch to lock the nut in the position where
the stop light goes off.
(d) Push the brake pedal in 5 ±15 mm (0.20 ± 0.59 in.), check
that the stop light lights up.
(e) Install the No. 2 heater to register duct, lower finish panel,
side panel, cowl side trim and front door scuff plate (See
page BO±89).
3. CHECK PEDAL FREE PLAY
(a) Stop the engine and depress the brake pedal several
times until there is no more vacuum left in the booster.
(b) Push in the pedal by hand until the second point of resis-
tance begins to be felt, then measure the distance as
shown in the illustration.
Pedal free play: 1 ± 6 mm (0.04 ± 0.24 in.)
HINT:
The free play to the first point of resistance is due to the play
between the clevis and pin. It is 1 ± 3 mm (0.04 ± 0.12 in.) at the
pedal.
If incorrect, check the stop light switch clearance. If the clear-
ance is OK, then troubleshoot the brake system.
Stop light switch clearance:
0.5 ± 2.4 mm (0.020 ± 0.095 in.)

(d) Turn the steering wheel to its straight position.
HINT:
Refer to the upper surface of the steering wheel, steering spoke
and SRS airbag line for the straight position.
(e) Draw a new line on the masking tape of the steering wheel
as shown in the illustration.
(f) Measure the distance between the 2 lines on the masking
tape of the steering wheel.
(g) Convert the measured distance to steering angle.
Measured distance 1 mm (0.04 in.) = Steering angle
approximately 1 deg.
HINT:
Make a note of the steering angle.
2. ADJUST STEERING ANGLE
(a) Draw a line on the RH and LH tie rod and rack ends where
it can easily be seen.
(b) Using a paper gauge, measure the distance from RH and
LH tie rod ends to the rack end screws.
HINT:
Measure the RH side and LH side.
Make a note of the measured values.
(c) Remove the RH and LH boot clips from the rack boots.
(d) Loosen the RH and LH lock nuts.
(e) Turn the RH and LH rack end by the same amount (but
in different directions) according to the steering angle.
1 turn 360 deg. of rack end (1.5 mm (0.059 in.) horizon-
tal movement) = 12 deg. of steering angle
(f) Tighten the RH and LH lock nuts.
Torque: 55 N´m (560 kgf´cm, 41 ft´lbf)
NOTICE:
Make sure that the difference in length between RH and LH
tie rod ends and rack end screws are within 1.5 mm (0.059
in.).
(g) Install the RH and LH boot clips.
