1. Jack up the vehicle. Then support the vehicle with rigid racks at the specified
jack-up points or place the front or rear wheels on the rollers of the braking
force tester.
2. Release the parking brake, and feel the drag force (drag torque) on each road
wheel. When using the braking force tester, take a reading of the brake drag
force.
3. Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connec
tor. also under special conditions, such as driving on a rough
road.
NOTE: For vehicles with ASC, refer to HYDRAULIC UNIT CHECK
.
CAUTION:
The roller of the braking force tester and the tire
should be dry during testing. When testing the front brakes, apply the parking
brake. When testing the rear brakes, stop the
front wheels with chocks.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958,
always turn the ignition switch to the
"LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or
disconnecting scan tool MB991958.

2004 DRIVELINE/AXLES
Front Axle - Endeavor
GENERAL DESCRIPTION The front axle consists of front hubs, knuckles, wheel bearings and drive shafts, and
has the following features:
The wheel bearing incorporates a unit ball bearing (double-row angular contact
ball bearing) for reduced friction. The front wheel hub assembly combines the hub, wheel bearing, housing, and
oil seal in a single unit for fewer parts, better durability, improved assembly
precision, and better structural organization. The driveshaft incorporates BJ-PTJ type constant velocity joints< FWD>, BJ-
DOJ < AWD-LH>and BJ-TJ< AWD-RH> with high transmission efficiency
for low vibration and noise. Due to the use of the inner shaft and bracket assembly, the right and left drive
shafts are approximately the same in length. This reduces noise, vibration and
torque steer.< FWD> ABS rotor for detecting the wheel speeds is press-fitted to the rear hub in
vehicles with ABS.

WHEEL BEARING END PLAY CHECK 1. Remove the caliper assembly and suspend it with a wire.
2. Remove the brake disc from the front hub.
3. Attach a dial gauge as shown in the illustration, and then measure the end play
while moving the hub in the axial direction.
Limit: 0.05 mm (0.002 inch)
4. If end play exceeds the limit, disassemble the front hub assembly and check the
parts.
5. Install the brake disc, caliper assembly and tighten the caliper assembly
mounting bolts to the specified torque 90 +/- 10 N.m (67 +/- 7 ft-lb).

Installation Service Points A. When installing the axle shaft, be careful that the splined part of the axle shaft
does not damage the oil seal.
B. Assemble the axle shaft washer as shown. See Fig. 4
. Tighten the axle shaft
nut. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
.

2. If the disc thickness is less than the limits, replace it with a new one. If
thickness variation exceeds the specification, turn rotor with an on-the-car type
brake lathe ("Accuturn-8750" or equivalent). If the calculated final thickness
after turning the rotor is less than the standard value, replace the disc. BRAKE DISC RUN-OUT CHECK AND CORRECTION 1. Remove the brake assembly, and then hold it with wire.
2. Temporarily install the disc with the hub nut.
3. Place a dial gauge approximately 5 mm (0.2 inch) from the outer
circumference of the brake disc, and measure the run-out of the disc.
Limit:
< Front brake disc>: 0.03 mm (0.0012 inch)
< Rear brake disc>: 0.08 mm (0.0031 inch)
