thickness which the brake rotor machined surface
may be cut to.
CAUTION: Do not machine the rotor if it will cause
the rotor to fall below minimum thickness.

Minimum allowable thickness is the minimum
thickness which the brake rotor machined surface
may be cut to.
CAUTION: Do not machine the rotor if it will cause
the rotor to fall below minimum thickness.
Before installation, verify the brake rotor face and
the hub adapters are free of any chips, rust, or con-
tamination.
When mounting and using the brake lathe, strict
attention to the brake lathe manufacturer's operating
instructions is required.
Machine both sides of the brake rotor at the same
time. Cutting both sides at the same time minimizes
the possibility of a tapered or uneven cut.
When refacing a rotor, the required TIR (Total
Indicator Reading) and thickness variation limits
MUST BE MAINTAINED. Extreme care in the oper-
ation of rotor turning equipment is required. Specifi-
cations for brake rotor machining can be found in
this section's specification table. (Refer to 5 -
BRAKES/HYDRAULIC/MECHANICAL/ROTOR -
SPECIFICATIONS)

parts installed.
If a wheel cylinder is leaking and the brake lining
material is saturated with brake fluid, the brake
shoes must be replaced.

PARKING BRAKE
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The parking brake system is operated by a foot
operated parking brake lever. The parking brake
lever is mounted on the body of the vehicle to the left
of the brake pedal (Fig. 94). It is a automatic-adjust-
ing type lever.
Vehicles without Fold-in-floor seating have four
flexible steel parking brake cables. They are:
²Front
²Intermediate
²Left rear
²Right rear

Vehicles with Fold-in-floor seating have three flex-
ible steel parking brake cables. They are:
²Front
²Left rear
²Right rear
The front parking brake cable extends from the
parking brake lever. A steel equalizer bracket con-
nects the front parking brake cable to the left rear
and intermediate cables on vehicles without Fold-in-
floor seating. The equalizer bracket connects the
front parking brake cable to the left rear and right
rear cables on vehicles with Fold-in-floor seating. The
intermediate cable is connected to the right rear
cable on vehicles without Fold-in-floor seating. A
standard cable connector is used to accomplish this
connection.
On vehicles equipped with rear drum brakes, the
rear service brakes also act as the vehicle's parking
brakes.
Vehicles equipped with rear disc brakes use a
small duo-servo brake assembly mounted to the each
rear disc brake caliper adapter as the parking brake.
The inside of the brake rotor (hat section of drum-in-
hat style brake rotor) is used as the parking brake
drum.
DESCRIPTION - EXPORT
The parking brake system on this vehicle features
a hand-operated parking brake lever. The lever is
located between the two front seats and requires a
special front cable.
OPERATION
The automatic-adjusting feature in the foot oper-
ated parking brake lever continuously applies mini-
mal tension to the parking brake cables when the
parking brake lever is in the released position to
keep them in adjustment at all times. Due to this
feature, the parking brake cables require no periodic
adjustment.
When the parking brake lever is applied, the
cables are pulled, thus applying the brake shoes
(rear drum brakes) or parking brake shoes (rear disc
brakes) at each rear wheel.
The brake shoes are mechanically operated by an
internal lever and strut connected to the rear park-
ing brake cables.
An equalizer bracket is used at the rear end of the
front parking brake cable to distribute tension
equally to each parking brake cable.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - PARKING BRAKE
AUTOMATIC ADJUSTER TENSION RELEASE
The parking brake lever (pedal) mechanism used
in this vehicle is designed so that the automatic
adjuster is not required to be locked out when servic-
ing the parking brake lever (pedal) or the parking
brake cables.
This parking brake lever (pedal) mechanism is
designed so that the adjuster mechanism will rotate
only half a turn when the tension is released from
the parking brake cable. This eliminates the require-
ment to lock out the automatic adjuster when servic-
ing the parking brake lever (pedal) mechanism and
cables.
Use the following procedure to release the tension
from the parking brake cables and the automatic
adjuster in the parking brake lever (pedal) mecha-
nism.
(1) Release the parking brake.
(2) Raise and support the vehicle. (Refer to
LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE/HOISTING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE)
(3) If equipped with Fold-in-floor seating, perform
the following:
(a) Clamp an appropriate pair of locking pliers
on the front parking brake cable strand approxi-
mately 25 mm (1 inch) forward of the button at the
equalizer (Fig. 95).

(b) Grasp the equalizer and pull rearward on it
until enough slack is present to disconnect the
equalizer from front or rear cables. While holding
the front cable in this position using the locking
pliers, disconnect the equalizer from cables (Fig.
96).
(c) Ease up on the front cable tension allowing
the lever automatic self-adjusting mechanism to
pull the front cable strand forward. This action
allows the adjuster mechanism to rotate around to
its stop, removing tension from the adjuster and
front parking brake cable.
(d) Remove the locking pliers from the front
parking brake cable as necessary.
(4) If not equipped with Fold-in-floor seating, per-
form the following:
(a) Grasp the exposed section of the front park-
ing brake cable and pull rearward on it.
(b) While holding the cable in this position,
(c) Clamp an appropriate pair of locking pliers
on the front parking brake cable strand just rear-
ward of the second body outrigger bracket (Fig.
97).
(d) Disconnect the parking brake cables from the
parking brake cable equalizer (Fig. 98).
(e) Remove the locking pliers from the front
parking brake cable as necessary. This action
allows the adjuster mechanism to rotate around to
its stop, removing tension from the adjuster and
front parking brake cable.

the park brake in this position, install a pair of lock-
ing pliers on the front parking brake cable just rear-
ward of the second body outrigger bracket (Fig. 97).
(2) Install the equalizer on the front parking brake
cable.
(3) Install the left rear and intermediate park
brake cable in the correct location on the parking
brake cable equalizer (Fig. 98).
(4) Remove the locking pliers from the front park-
ing brake cable. This will allow the adjuster in the
park brake lever (pedal) mechanism to tension the
park brake cables.
(5) Apply and release the parking brake lever
(pedal) one time. This will seat the parking brake
cables and allow the auto adjuster in the parking
brake lever (pedal) mechanism to correctly tension
the parking brake cables.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - CABLE END
CLEANING AND LUBRICATION
Periodic cleaning and lubrication can be done to
ensure proper operation of the parking brake cables.This procedure applies to the trailing end of all park-
ing brake cables.
CAUTION: If a liquid cleaner is necessary, use a
cleaner such as MoparTNon-Chlorinated Brake
Parts Cleaner or equivalent.
(1) Using an appropriate bristle brush, clean the
cable strand in the area that retracts into the cable
housing when the parking brake lever is applied (Fig.
99).
(2) Clean the cable seal area at the end of the
cable housing (Fig. 99).
(3) Lubricate the cleaned area with a general pur-
pose grease lubricant.
ADJUSTMENTS
ADJUSTMENT - PARKING BRAKE CABLES
The park brake cables on this vehicle have an
automatic self adjuster built into the park brake
pedal mechanism. When the foot operated park brake
pedal is in its released (upward most) position, a
clock spring automatically adjusts the park brake
cables. The park brake cables are adjusted (ten-
sioned) just enough to remove all the slack from the
cables. The automatic adjuster system will not over
adjust the cables causing rear brake drag.
Due to the automatic adjust feature of the park
brake pedal, adjustment of the parking brake cables
on these vehicles relies on proper drum brake and
park brake shoe adjustment. (Refer to 5 - BRAKES/
HYDRAULIC/MECHANICAL/DRUM - ADJUST-
MENTS) and (Refer to 5 - BRAKES/PARKING
BRAKE/SHOES - ADJUSTMENTS).
When the park brake pedal is applied the self
adjuster is by-passed and the pedal operates nor-
mally to engage the park brakes.
When a service procedure needs to be performed on
the park brake pedal or the park brake cables, the
automatic self adjuster can be manually locked out
by the service technician.
