1. Check drive plate runout.
CAUTION:
Do not allow any magnetic materials to contact the ring
gear teeth.
lIf this runout is out of allowance, replace drive plate with ring
gear.
2. When connecting torque converter to transaxle, measure dis-
tance “A” to be certain that they are correctly assembled.

REMOVAL
CAUTION:
lDo not allow brake fluid to spill or splash on painted surfaces. Brake fluid can seriously damage
paint. If it gets on a painted surface, wipe it off immediately and wash with water.
lDo not bend or twist the brake hose sharply, or strongly pull it.
lCover brake fluid line connections to prevent dust and other foreign material from entering.
1. Connect a vinyl tube to the air bleeder.
2. Drain brake fluid gradually from the air bleeder of each wheel while depressing the brake pedal.
3. Using a flare nut wrench, remove brake tube flare nuts and dis-
connect brake tube from the brake hose.
4. Remove union bolts and disconnect caliper assembly from the
brake hose.
5. First remove lock spring from brake tube and strut mounting
positions. Then remove brake hose.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
lRefill with new brake fluid “DOT 3” or “DOT4”.
lNever reuse drained brake fluid.
1. Connect brake hose to caliper assembly and tighten union bolts to the specified torque.
CAUTION:
lSecurely connect brake hose to the protrusions on the cylinder body.
lDo not reuse the copper washer for union bolts.
2. Connect brake hose to the strut and fix with lock spring.
3. Connect brake hose to brake tube. Temporarily tighten flare nuts by hand as far as they will go. Secure
them with the lock spring.
4. Using a flare nut torque wrench, tighten to the specified torque.

torque wrench.
4. Refill brake fluid until new brake fluid comes out of each air
bleeder.
5. Afterwards, bleed air.
InspectionEFS000C9
CAUTION:
If any connection leaks, retighten it. Replace any damaged parts.
1. Check hose, tube, and connections for fluid leaks, damage, twist, deformation, contact with other parts,
and loose connections.
2. Run the engine. Depress brake pedal and hold it for approximately 5 seconds while checking each part
for leaks.:15-17N·m(1.5-1.8kg·m,11-13ft·lb)

WA RN ING:
lClean brake pads with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of airborne particles or
other materials.
CAUTION:
lWhen cylinder body is open, do not depress brake pedal because piston will pop out.
lBe careful not to damage piston boot or get oil on rotor. Always replace shims when replacing
pads.
lIf shims are rusted or show peeling of the rubber coat, replace them with new shims.
lIt is not necessary to remove connecting bolt except for disassembly or replacement of caliper
assembly. In this case, suspend cylinder body with wire so as not to stretch brake hose.
lBurnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or replacing drums or rotors, after replacing
pads or linings, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage. Refer toBR-10, "
Brake Burnishing
Procedure".

looking through check hole on cylinder body. If necessary, use a
scale.

INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Cylinder Body
CAUTION:
Use new brake fluid to clean. Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene.
lCheck cylinder inner wall for corrosion, wear and damage. If corrosion, wear or damage is detected,
replace the cylinder body.
lMinor flaws caused by corrosion or foreign material can be removed by polishing the surface with fine
sandpaper. Replace the cylinder body, if necessary.
Torque Member
Check for wear, cracks and damage. If wear, cracks or damage is detected, replace the applicable part.
Piston
CAUTION:
The piston sliding surface is plated. Do not polish with sandpaper.
Check piston surface for corrosion, wear and damage. If corrosion, wear or damage is detected, replace the
applicable part.
Sliding Pin, Pin Bolt, and Pin Boot
Check sliding pin and sliding pin boot for wear, damage and cracks. If corrosion, wear or damage is detected,
replace the applicable part.
DISC ROTOR INSPECTION
Visual Inspection
Check surface of the disc rotor for uneven wear, cracks and serious damage. If uneven wear, cracks or seri-
ous damage is detected, replace it.
Run Out Inspection
1. Using wheel nuts, fix the disc rotor to the wheels hub. (2 or more positions)
2. Using a dial indicator, check run out.
CAUTION:
Before measuring, make sure that the axle endplay is 0 mm
(0 in).
3. If the run out is outside the limit, find the minimum run out point
by shifting the mounting positions of the disc rotor and wheel hub by one hole.

Measurement point:
At a point 10 mm (0.39 in) from the outer edge of the
disc.

air.
CAUTION:
lNever depress brake pedal while removing cylinder body because the piston will pop out.
lDo not remove brake hose and torque member mounting bolts unless disassembling or replacing
caliper assembly. Hang the cylinder body with a wire so that the brake hose is not under tension.
lBe careful not to damage the piston boot. Do not allow brake fluid to get on the rotor.
lWhen replacing brake pads, always replace inner shims, outer shims, and shim covers as a set.

CAUTION:
lBe careful not to damage sensor edge and rotor tooth. Before removing front or rear wheel hub,
remove wheel speed sensor to avoid sensor wiring damage. Otherwise, sensor may be deacti-
vated.
lWhen removing sensor, avoid rotating it as much as possible. Do not forcibly pull sensor harness.
lWhen installing, check sensor pick-up and mounting hole for foreign material such as iron chips.
Check no foreign material has been caught in sensor rotor. Remove any foreign material found.
