ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
FRONT DISC BRAKE PAD
REMOVAL
1) Hoist vehicle and remove wheel.
2) Remove caliper pin bolts.
3) Remove E-ring from strut and then remove caliper from caliper
carrier.
NOTE:
Hang removed caliper with a wire hook or the like so as to
prevent brake hose from bending and twisting excessively
or being pulled. Don't operate brake pedal with pads re-
moved.
4) Remove pads.
INSPECTION
Brake Pad
Check pad lining for wear. When wear exceeds limit, replace with
new one.
CAUTION:
Never polish pad lining with sandpaper. If lining is polished
with sandpaper, hard particles of sandpaper will be depos-
ited in lining and may damage disc. When pad lining re-
quires correction, replace it with a new one.
Pad thickness (lining + rim) ªaº
Standard: 15.0 mm (0.590 in.) For SUMITOMO ELECTRIC. . .
brake calliper
15.5 mm (0.610 in.) For TOKICO brake caliper. . .
Service limit: 7.0 mm (0.275 in.) For SUMITOMO ELECTRIC. .
brake caliper
7.5 mm (0.295 in.) For TOKICO brake caliper. .
NOTE:
When pads are removed, visually inspect caliper for brake
fluid leak. Correct leaky point, if any.

ªAº: Apply grease
Brake Disc
Before this inspection, brake pads must be removed.
Check disc surface for scratches in wearing parts. Scratches on
disc surface noticed at the time of specified inspection or replace-
ment are normal and disc is not defective unless they are serious.
But when there are deep scratches or scratches all over disc sur-
face, replace it. When only one side is scratched, polish and correct
that side.
Disc thickness ªaº
Standard: 22 mm (0.866 in.) For SUMITOMO ELECTRIC. . . . .
brake caliper
17 mm (0.670 in.) For TOKICO brake caliper. . . . .
Service limit: 20 mm (0.787 in.) For SUMITOMO ELECTRIC. .
brake caliper
15 mm (0.590 in.) For TOKICO brake caliper. .
Use wheel nuts and suitable plain washers to hold the disc securely
against the hub, then mount a dial indicator as shown and measure
the runout at 25 mm (0.98 in.) from the outer edge of the disc.
Limit on disc deflection: 0.15 mm (0.006 in.)
NOTE:
Check front wheel bearing for looseness before measure-
ment.
Cylinder Slide Guide Pin / Pin Bolt
Check guide pin for smooth movement as shown.
If it is found faulty, correct or replace. Apply rubber grease to guide
pin outer surface. Rubber grease should be the on whose viscosity
is less affected by such low temperature a ±40
C (±40
F).
Dust Boot
Check boot for breakage, crack and damage. If defective, replace.

REMOVAL
1) Hoist vehicle and remove wheel.
2) Remove brake flexible hose mounting bolt from caliper. As this
will allow fluid to flow out of hose, have a container ready before-
hand.
3) Remove caliper pin bolts.
4) Remove caliper.
DISASSEMBLY
Before disassembly, clean all around caliper with brake fluid.
1) Remove anti noise shim (if equipped) and blow compressed air
into cylinder through bolt hole where flexible hose was fitted.
With this air pressure, piston can be pushed out of cylinder.
WARNING:
Do not apply too highly compressed air which will cause
piston to jump out of cylinder. It should be taken out grad-
ually with moderately compressed air. Do not place your
fingers in front of piston when using compressed air.

Caliper
Before installing caliper (cylinder body) to carrier, check to ensure
that guide pin (pin bolt) inserted in each caliper carrier hole can be
moved smoothly in thrust direction.
NOTE:
Where temperature gets as low as ±30
C in cold weather, use
rubber grease whose viscosity varies very little even at ±40
C
(±40
F).
