Vehicle Lifting Points
When Using Frame Contact Hoist
WARNING:
 Before applying hoist to underbody, always take vehicle balance throughout service into consider-
ation. Vehicle balance on hoist may change depending on what part to be removed.
 Before lifting up the vehicle, check to be sure that end of hoist arm is not in contact with brake pipe,
fuel pipe, bracket or any other part.
 When using frame contact hoist, apply hoist as shown (right and left at the same position). Lift up
the vehicle till 4 tires are a little off the ground and make sure that the vehicle will not fall off by try-
ing to move vehicle body in both ways. Work can be started only after this confirmation.
 Make absolutely sure to lock hoist after vehicle is hoisted up.

Brake Drums and Shoes
INSPECTION
1) Remove wheel and brake drum.
2) Check rear brake drums and brake linings for excessive wear
and damage, while wheels and drums are removed. At the
same time, check wheel cylinders for leaks. Replace these
parts as necessary.
For details, refer to “Brake Drum” in Section 5.
Brake Hoses and Pipes
INSPECTION
Check brake hoses and pipes for proper hookup, leaks, cracks,
chafing and other damage.
Replace any of these parts as necessary.
Brake Fluid
CHANGE
Change brake fluid as follows.
Drain existing fluid from brake system completely, fill system with
above recommended fluid and carry out air purge operation.
For air purging procedure, refer to “Air Bleeding of Brake System”
in Section 5.
CAUTION:
After replacing any brake pipe or hose, be sure to carry
out air purge operation.
CAUTION:
Since brake system of this vehicle is factory-filled with
glycol-base brake fluid, do not use or mix different type
of fluid when refilling system; otherwise serious damage
will occur. Do not use old or used brake fluid, or one
taken from unsealed container.

General Diagnosis
Since the problems in steering, suspension, wheels and tires involve several systems, they must all be consid-
ered when diagnosing a complaint. To avoid using the wrong symptom, always road test the vehicle first.
Proceed with the following preliminary inspections and correct any defects which are found.
1) Inspect tires for proper pressure and uneven wear.
2) Raise vehicle on a hoist and inspect front and rear suspension and steering system for loose or damaged
parts.
3) Spin front wheel. Inspect for out-of-round tires, out-of-balance tires, bent rims, loose and/or rough wheel
bearings.
Diagnosis Table
Condition Possible Cause Correction
Vehicle Pulls (Leads)
Mismatched or uneven tires Replace tire.
Tires not adequately inflated Adjust tire pressure.
Broken or sagging springs Replace spring.
Radial tire lateral force Replace tire.
Disturbed front wheel alignment Check and adjust wheel alignment.
Disturbed rear wheel alignment Check and adjust wheel alignment.
Brake dragging in one road wheel Repair front brake.
Loose, bent or broken front or rear suspension
partsTighten or replace suspension part.
Abnormal or
Excessive Tire WearSagging or broken springs Replace spring.
Tire out of balance Adjust balance or replace tire.
Disturbed front wheel alignment Check wheel alignment.
Faulty shock absorber Replace shock absorber.
Hard driving Replace tire.
Overloaded vehicle Replace tire.
Not rotating tire Replace or rotate tire.
Worn or loose road wheel bearings Replace wheel bearing.
Wobbly wheel or tires Replace wheel or tire.
Tires not adequately inflated Adjust the pressure.
Wheel Tramp
Blister or bump on tire Replace tire.
Improper shock absorber action Replace shock absorber.

Radial Tire Lead
“Lead” is the deviation of the vehicle from a straight path on a level rod even with no pressure on the steering
wheel.
Lead is usually caused by:
1) Incorrect alignment.
2) Uneven brake adjustment.
3) Tire construction.
The way in which a tire is built can produce lead in a vehicle. An example of this is placement of the belt. Off
center belts on radial tires can cause the tire to develop a side force while rolling straight down the road. If one
side of the tire has a little larger diameter than the other, the tire will tend to roll to one side. This will develop a
side force which can produce vehicle lead.
The procedure in above figure (Lead Diagnosis) should be used to make sure that front alignment is not mis-
taken for tire lead.
1) Part of the lead diagnosis procedure is different from the proper tire rotation pattern currently in the owner
and service manuals. If a medium to high mileage tire is moved to the other side of the vehicle, be sure to
check that ride roughness has not developed.
2) Rear tires will not cause lead.
Vibration Diagnosis
Wheel unbalance causes most of the highway speed vibration problems. If a vibration remains after dynamic
balancing, its possible causes are as follows.
1) Tire runout.
2) Wheel runout.
3) Tire stiffness variation.
Measuring tire and/or wheel free runout will uncover only part of the problem. All three causes, known as loaded
radial runout, must be checked by using a Tire Problem Detector (TPD). If TPD is not available, alternative
method of substituting known good tire and wheel assemblies on the problem vehicle can be used, although it
takes a longer time.

Rear Suspension Fasteners
Check each bolt and nut fastening suspension parts for tightness.
Tighten loose one, if any, to specified torque, referring to “Tighten-
ing Torque Specifications” of this section.
Bearing Retainer and Axle Shaft Oil Seal
Check
When brake drum has been removed, check inside of brake
drum for gear oil leakage.
Also, check backside of brake back plate for oil leakage.If oil
leakage is found, replace defective oil seal.
Whenever it is possible to check oil seal during disassembly,
check its lip for wear.
If oil leakage or worn lip is found, replace defective oil seal.
Bump Stopper and Spring Rubber Seat Check
Inspect for wear and breakage. If found defective, replace.
Wheel Disc, Nut and Bearing Check
Inspect each wheel disc for dents, distortion and cracks. A
disc in badly damaged condition must be replaced.
Check wheel hub nuts for tightness and, as necessary,
retighten to specification.
