2004 CHRYSLER VOYAGER parking brake

(18) Remove the hub/bearing-to-axle mounting
bolts (Fig. 117).
(19) Remove the hub/bearing (Fig. 118).
CAUTION: Corrosion may occur between the hub/
bearing and the axle flange. If this occurs, the hub/
bearing will be difficult to remove from the axle and
disc brake caliper adapter. If the hub/bearing will
not come out by pulling on it by hand, don't not
pound on it with a hammer. Pounding on the hub/
bearing will damage it. To remove a hub/bearing
that is corroded in place, lightly tap the disc brakecaliper adapter using a soft-face hammer. This will
remove both the caliper adapter and hub/bearing
together from the axle. With a helper supporting the
caliper adapter in his hands, position Remover,
Special Tool 8214-1, on the cast housing of hub/
bearing (Fig. 119). Do not position the special tool
on the inner race of hub/bearing. Lightly strike the
Remover with a hammer to remove the hub/bearing
from the caliper adapter.
(20) Remove the adapter from the rear axle.
(21) Mount the adapter in a vise using the anchor
boss for the park brake cable (Fig. 120).

not in the neutral installed position on hub and
bearing cap, install from the bottom, if necessary,
and push clip upward until it snaps into position.
(b) Install wheel speed sensor head into rear of
hub and bearing aligning index tab with the notch
in the top of the mounting hole. Push the sensor in
until it snaps into place on the metal retaining
clip.
(c) Install secondary (yellow) retaining clip over
wheel speed sensor head and engage the tabs on
each side.
(15) Install the park brake cable into its mounting
hole in the adapter.Be sure all the locking tabs
on the park brake cable retainer are expanded
out to ensure the cable will not pull out of the
adapter.
(16) Install the end of the park brake cable on the
park brake actuator lever (Fig. 113).
(17) Attach park brake cable to adapter using
mounting bolt.
(18) Remove the locking pliers (Fig. 109) from the
front park brake cable.
(19) Adjust the park brake drum-in-hat brake
shoes. (Refer to 5 - BRAKES/PARKING BRAKE/
SHOES - ADJUSTMENTS).
(20) Install the rotor on the hub/bearing.
(21) Carefully lower caliper and brake shoes over
rotor and onto the adapter using the reverse proce-
dure for removal (Fig. 111).
CAUTION: When installing guide pin bolts extreme
caution should be taken not to crossthread the cal-
iper guide pin bolts.
(22) Install the caliper guide pin bolts (Fig. 110).
Tighten the guide pin bolts to a torque of 35 N´m (26
ft. lbs.).
(23) AWD only - Clean all foreign material off the
threads of the outer C/V joint stub shaft. Install the
washer and hub nut (Fig. 108) on the stub shaft of
the outer C/V joint.

(27) AWD only - Install the nut retainer and cotter
pin (Fig. 106) on the stub shaft of the outer C/V joint.(28) Install the wheel and tire assembly. Tighten
the wheel mounting stud nuts in proper sequence
until all nuts are torqued to half specification. Then
repeat the tightening sequence to the full specified
torque of 135 N´m (100 ft. lbs.).
(29) Lower vehicle.
(30) Fully apply and release the park brake pedal
one time. This will seat and correctly adjust the park
brake cables.
CAUTION: Before moving vehicle, pump the brake

to wear off any foreign material on the brakes and to
seat the brake shoe linings.
ADJUSTMENTS
ADJUSTMENT - PARKING BRAKE SHOES
CAUTION: Before adjusting the park brake shoes be
sure that the park brake pedal is in the fully
released position. If park brake pedal is not in the
fully released position, the park brake shoes can
not be accurately adjusted.
(1) Raise vehicle.
(2) Remove tire and wheel.

NOTE: When measuring the brake drum diameter,
the diameter should be measured in the center of
the area in which the park brake shoes contact the
surface of the brake drum.
(5) Using Brake Shoe Gauge, Special Tool C-3919,
or equivalent,accuratelymeasure the inside diam-
eter of the park brake drum portion of the rotor (Fig.
129).
(6) Using a ruler that reads in 64th of an inch,
accurately read the measurement of the inside diam-
eter of the park brake drum from the special tool
(Fig. 130).
(7) Reduce the inside diameter measurement of
the brake drum that was taken using Special Tool
C-3919 by 1/64 of an inch. Reset Gauge, Brake Shoe,
Special Tool C-3919 or the equivalent used, so that
the outside measurement jaws are set to the reduced
measurement (Fig. 131).(8) Place Gauge, Brake Shoe, Special Tool C-3919,
or equivalent over the park brake shoes. The special
tool must be located diagonally across at the top of
one shoe and bottom of opposite shoe (widest point)
of the park brake shoes.
(9) Using the star wheel adjuster, adjust the park
brake shoes until the lining on the park brake shoes
just touches the jaws on the special tool.
(10) Repeat step 8 above and measure shoes in
both directions.
(11) Install brake rotor on hub and bearing.
(12) Rotate rotor to verify that the park brake
shoes are not dragging on the brake drum. If park
brake shoes are dragging, remove rotor and back off
star wheel adjuster one notch and recheck for brake
shoe drag against drum. Continue with the previous
step until brake shoes are not dragging on brake
drum.
(13) Install disc brake caliper on caliper adapter
(Fig. 128). (Refer to 5 - BRAKES/HYDRAULIC/ME-
CHANICAL/DISC BRAKE CALIPERS - INSTALLA-
TION).
(14) Install wheel and tire.
(15) Tighten the wheel mounting nuts in the
proper sequence until all nuts are torqued to half the
specified torque. Then repeat the tightening sequence
to the full specified torque of 129 N´m (95 ft. lbs.).
(16) Lower vehicle.
(17) Apply and release the park brake pedal one
time. This will seat and correctly adjust the park
brake cables.
CAUTION: Before moving vehicle, pump brake
pedal several times to ensure the vehicle has a firm
enough pedal to stop the vehicle.
(18) Road test the vehicle to ensure proper func-
tion of the vehicle's brake system.

BRAKES - BASE
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION - BASE BRAKES
The base brake system consists of the following
components: ² Brake pedal
² Power brake booster
² Master cylinder
² Brake tubes and hoses
² Proportioning valve (non-ABS vehicles only)
² Disc brakes
² Drum brakes
² Brake lamp switch
² Brake fluid level switch
² Parking brakes
Front disc brakes control the braking of the front
wheels; rear braking is controlled by rear drum
brakes or rear disc brakes depending on options. The hydraulic brake system is diagonally split on
both the non-antilock braking systems and antilock
braking systems. That means the left front and right
rear brakes are on one hydraulic circuit and the right
front and left rear are on the other. For information on the brake lamp switch, (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERI-
OR/BRAKE LAMP SWITCH - DESCRIPTION) Vehicles equipped with the optional antilock brake
system (ABS) use a system designated Mark 20e. It
is available with or without traction control. This
system shares most base brake hardware used on
vehicles without ABS. ABS components are described
in detail in ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM.
DESCRIPTION - BASE BRAKES (EXPORT)
Four-Wheel Disc Antilock Brakes are standard on
all models.
OPERATION - BASE BRAKES
When a vehicle needs to be stopped, the driver
applies the brake pedal. The brake pedal pushes the
input rod of the power brake booster into the booster.
The booster uses vacuum to ease pedal effort as force
is transferred through the booster to the master cyl-
inder. The booster's output rod pushes in the master
cylinder's primary and secondary pistons applying
hydraulic pressure through the chassis brake tubes
to the brakes at each tire and wheel assembly. The parking brakes are foot-operated. When
applied, the parking brake lever pulls on cables that
actuate brake shoes at each rear wheel. These shoes
come in contact with a hub mounted drum (drum for
disc/drum brakes or drum-in-hat for disc/disc brakes)
and hold it in place.

CAUTION
CAUTION: During service procedures, grease or
any other foreign material must be kept off brake
shoes and braking surfaces of brake rotor or drum,
and external surfaces of hub and bearing assembly.
CAUTION: Brake rotor and caliper handling must be
done in such a way as to avoid damage to the rotor,
especially the machined surfaces, and scratching or
nicking of the brake linings.
CAUTION: Only the recommended jacking or hoist-
ing procedures for this vehicle are to be usedwhenever it is necessary to lift a vehicle. Failure to
raise a vehicle utilizing the recommended lift points
can result in damage to the vehicle. (Refer to
LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE/HOISTING - STAN-
DARD PROCEDURE)
