(3) Check the brake system for any leaks.
(4) Reconnect the electrical connector to the brake
fluid level indicator (Fig. 14).
ALB LEVER
REMOVAL
(1) Raise and support the vehicle.
(2) Remove the retaining clip for the ALB lever
(Fig. 15).
(3) Remove the bolt for the lever at the axle (Fig.
15).
(4) Remove the lever.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the lever to the vehicle.
(2) Install the lower mounting bolt to the axle (Fig.
15).
(3) Install the lever to the shock bolt and then
install the clip (Fig. 15).
(4) Check the side deflection of the ALB lever with
a straight edge from Point-A to Point-B as the
graphic shows. Max deflection play of the actuator
rod should be no more than 15 mm (.60 in) (Fig. 15).
(5) Lower the vehicle.
ALB CONTROLLER
REMOVAL
(1) Install the brake pedal rod to hold the brake
pressure.
(2) Raise and support the vehicle.(3) Remove the brake lines to the (automatic load-
dependant brake pressure control) ALB controller.
(4) Remove the adjusting nut and the spring from
the ALB controller.
(5) Remove the mounting bolts.
(6) Remove the ALB controller.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the ALB controller to the vehicle.
(2) Install the mounting bolts for the controller.
(3) Install the brake lines. Tighten the lines to 16
N´m (142 in. lbs.)
(4) Install the adjusting rod, nut and spring to the
ALB controller.
(5) Lower the vehicle.
(6) Remove the brake pedal hold down rod.
(7) Fill and bleed the brake system (Refer to 5 -
BRAKES - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
(8) Raise the vehicle and adjust the ALB controller
(Refer to 5 - BRAKES/HYDRAULIC/MECHANICAL/
ALB CONTROLLER - ADJUSTMENTS).
(9) Lower the vehicle and test drive.
ADJUSTMENTS
ADJUSTMENT
(1) Clean any debris away from the test ports caps
at the ALB controller.
(2) Connect brake adapters special tool 9297 to the
test ports at the ALB controller.
(3) Install a Pressure Gauge, Special Tool
C-4007-A, to the adapters.
(4) Tighten all tube nut fittings to 17 N´m (145 in.
lbs.) torque.
(5) Bleed any air out of the system. This includes
bleeding the air from the hose between the pressure
test fitting and pressure gauge, which is done at the
pressure gauge.
NOTE: Adjustment is determined for the automatic
load-dependent brake power control system accord-
ing to the ALB plate. This is housed in the stowage
compartment under the front passenger's door
panel. The part number of the rear spring is
stamped into the spring eye. This must correspond
to the part number of the rear spring on the ALB
plate.
(6) To accurately adjust the rear axle load you
must first determine the rear axle load by weighing
the vehicle at a local scale.
(7) Install the brake pedal winch Special tool 9296
between the brake pedal and the driver seat and
slowly turn the dial until the specified inlet brake
pressure is indicated at the gauge.

ADJUSTMENT - FRONT LAMP UNIT
VEHICLE PREPARATION FOR FRONT LAMP UNIT
ALIGNMENT
(1) Verify headlamp dimmer (multi-function)
switch, fog lamp switch (if equipped), and high beam
indicator operation.
(2) Verify that the headlamp leveling switch is in
the ª0º position.
(3) Repair or replace any faulty or damaged com-
ponents that could interfere with proper lamp align-
ment.
(4) Verify proper tire inflation.
(5) Clean front lamp unit lenses.
(6) Verify that the cargo compartment is not
heavily loaded. Vehicle should be at or near curb
weight.
(7) The fuel tank should be ªFull.º Add 2.94 kilo-
grams (6.5 pounds) of weight over the fuel tank for
each estimated gallon of missing fuel.
(8) Load the driver's seat with 75 kilograms (165
pounds) of weight.
FRONT LAMP UNIT ALIGNMENT
(1) Position the vehicle on a level surface.
(2) Turn On the headlamp low beams or the fog
lamps (if equipped).
(3) Open the hood.
(4) Set up the headlamp adjuster according to the
instructions provided by the manufacturer of the
unit.
(5) Adjust the front lamp unit reflector as required
by turning the adjustment screws in or out (Fig.
19).
(6) When properly aligned, the low beam head-
lamps and, if equipped, fog lamps should provide acut-off pattern as shown in (Fig. 20) and (Fig. 21).
Repeat the adjustment procedure as necessary to
obtain the recommended cut-off patterns.
FRONT POSITION LAMP BULB
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Disengage and swing the retainers that secure
the front lamp unit rear cover to each side of the
lamp housing and remove the cover (Fig. 22).
