2004 CHRYSLER VOYAGER height

brakes will be lower than the front brakes. This will
prevent premature rear wheel lockup and skid.Here is how the height sensing proportioning valve
differs from a standard proportioning valve. As the
height of the rear suspension changes, the height
sensing portion of the proportioning valve changes
the split point of the proportioning valve. When the
height of the rear suspension is low, the proportion-
ing valve interprets this as extra load and the split
point of the proportioning valve is raised to a higher
pressure to allow for more rear braking. When the
height of the rear suspension is high, the proportion-
ing valve interprets this as a light load and the split
point of the proportioning valve is lowered to a lower
pressure and rear braking is reduced. The height sensing proportioning valve regulates
the pressure by sensing the load condition of the
vehicle through the movement of the proportioning
valve actuator lever (Fig. 80). As the position of the
rear axle changes, depending on the load the vehicle
is carrying, the movement is transferred to the pro-
portioning valve. The proportioning valve adjusts the
hydraulic pressure accordingly. The height sensing proportioning valve allows the
brake system to maintain the optimal front to rear
brake balance regardless of the vehicle load condi-
tion. Under a light load condition, hydraulic pressure
to the rear brakes is minimized. As the rear load con-
dition increases, so does the hydraulic pressure to
the rear brakes.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - PROPORTIONING
VALVE (HEIGHT SENSING)
CAUTION: The use of aftermarket load leveling or
load capacity increasing devices on this vehicle is
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.
When a premature rear wheel skid is obtained on a
brake application, it may be an indication that the
hydraulic pressure to the rear brakes is above the
specified output from the proportioning valve. This
condition indicates a possible malfunction of the
height sensing proportioning valve, which will
require testing to verify that it is properly controlling
the hydraulic pressure allowed to the rear brakes.
Premature rear wheel skid may also be caused by
contaminated front or rear brake linings. Prior to testing a proportioning valve for function,
check that all tire pressures are correct. Also, ensure the front and rear brake linings are in satisfactory
condition.
It is also necessary to verify that the
brakes shoe assemblies on a vehicle being
tested are either original equipment manufac-
turers (OEM) or original replacement brake
shoe assemblies meeting the OEM lining mate-
rial specification. This vehicles brake system is
not balanced for aftermarket brake shoe assem-
bly lining material. If both front and rear brakes check OK, proceed
with the following test procedure for the height sens-
ing proportioning valve. (1) Road test the vehicle to determine which rear
wheel brake is exhibiting premature wheel skid. (2) Raise vehicle. (Refer to LUBRICATION &
MAINTENANCE/HOISTING - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE) (3) Remove the chassis brake tube going to the
rear brake in question at the proportioning valve.
Remove the chassis brake tube coming from the junc-
tion block at the proportioning valve (Fig. 81). (4) Install the appropriate fittings from Pressure
Test Fittings, Special Tool 6833, into the open ports
of the proportioning valve. (5) Install the previously removed brake lines into
the Pressure Test Fittings. Tighten all tube nuts to
17 N´m (145 in. lbs.). (6) Install a pressure gauge from Gauge Set, Spe-
cial Tool C-4007-A into the open port on each pres-
sure test fitting. Bleed air out of hose from pressure
test fittings to pressure gauges at the pressure
gauges. Then bleed air out of the brake line being
tested at that rear wheel brake bleeder.
NOTE: Actuator rod is a linear spring and is meant
to flex by design. When rod is raised, it will have
some curvature to it.
(7) Remove the screw fastening the proportioning
valve actuator rod bracket to the rear axle. Raise the
actuator lever to the full-upward position and hold it
there. (8) With the aid of a helper, apply pressure to the
brake pedal until a pressure of 6895 kPa (1000 psi) is
obtained on the proportioning valve inlet gauge.
Then, based on the type of brake system the vehicle
is equipped with and the pressure specification
shown on the following table, compare the pressure
reading on the outlet gauge to the specification. If
outlet pressure at the proportioning valve is not
within specification when required inlet pressure is
obtained, replace the proportioning valve. (Refer to 5

TIONING VALVE - REMOVAL)

PROPORTIONING VALVE (Continued)

CAUTION: Do not attempt to adjust the height sens-
ing proportioning valve. If found to be defective,
replace the valve.(9) Remove the pressure test fittings and pressure
gauges from the proportioning valve. (10) Install the chassis brake lines in the correct
ports of the proportioning valve. Tighten all tube
nuts to 17 N´m (145 in. lbs.). (11) If necessary, repeat the above steps on the
remaining side of the proportioning valve which con-
trol the other rear wheel brake. (12) Attach the actuator lever and bracket to the
rear axle. (13) Bleed rear brakes. (Refer t o 5 - BRAKES -

REMOVAL - PROPORTIONING VALVE (HEIGHT
SENSING)
(1) Using a brake pedal depressor, move and lock
the brake pedal to a position past its first 1 inch of
travel. This will prevent brake fluid from draining
out of the master cylinder when the brake tubes are
removed from the proportioning valve. (2) Raise vehicle. (Refer to LUBRICATION &
MAINTENANCE/HOISTING - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE).
CAUTION: Before removing the brake tubes from
the proportioning valve, the proportioning valve and
the brake tubes must be thoroughly cleaned. This is
required to prevent contamination from entering the
proportioning valve or the brake tubes.
(3) Remove the four brake tubes from the inlet and
outlet ports of the proportioning valve (Fig. 81). (4) Remove the two bolts attaching the proportion-
ing valve and bracket to the vehicle (Fig. 81). (5) Slide the bracket out from under rear track bar
bracket. Lower the valve down enough to pull its
actuator rod out of the axle bracket and remove the
proportioning valve from the vehicle.
INSTALLATION - PROPORTIONING VALVE
(HEIGHT SENSING)
(1) Install the end of the actuator rod through the
axle bracket grommet and slide the proportioning
valve bracket under the rear track bar body bracket
(Fig. 81). (2) Install the proportioning valve attaching bolts
(Fig. 81). Tighten the attaching bolts to a torque of
54 N´m (40 ft. lbs.). (3) Install the four chassis brake lines into the
inlet and outlet ports of the proportioning valve (Fig.
81). Tighten all tube nuts to a torque of 17 N´m (145
in. lbs.).
CAUTION: The height sensing proportioning valve
is not adjustable. No attempt should be made to
adjust it.
(4) Bleed the brake system thoroughly to ensure
that all air has been expelled from the hydraulic sys-
tem. (Refer t o 5 - BRAKES - BASE - STANDARD
PROCEDURE). (5) Lower the vehicle to the ground.

CLEANING
To ensure engine gasket sealing, proper surface
preparation must be performed, especially with the
use of aluminum engine components and multi-layer
steel cylinder head gaskets.
NOTE: Multi-Layer Steel (MLS) head gaskets require
a scratch free sealing surface.
Remove all gasket material from cylinder head and
block (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE). Be careful not to gouge or scratch the alumi-
num head sealing surface.
Clean all engine oil passages.
INSPECTION
(1) Cylinder head must be flat within 0.1 mm
(0.004 in.) (Fig. 14).
(2) Inspect camshaft bearing journals for scoring.(3) Remove carbon and varnish deposits from
inside of valve guides with a reliable guide cleaner.
(4) Using a small hole gauge and a micrometer,
measure valve guides in 3 places top, middle and bot-
tom (Fig. 15). (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - SPECIFICA-
TIONS) Replace guides if they are not within
specification.
(5) Check valve guide height (Fig. 16).
INSTALLATION - CYLINDER HEAD
NOTE: The Cylinder head bolts should be examined
BEFORE reuse. If the threads are necked down, the
bolts must be replaced (Fig. 17).
Necking can be checked by holding a scale or
straight edge against the threads. If all the threads
do not contact the scale, the bolt should be replaced.
(1) Before installing the bolts, the threads should
be coated with engine oil.
