REMOVAL SERVICE POINT
AA"REAR BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLY REMOVAL
Remove the rear brake caliper assembly and support it with
wire or similar.
CAUTION: Brembo disc brake
Take care not to contact the parts or tools to the caliper
because the paint of caliper will be scratched. And if
there is brake fluid on the caliper, wipe out quickly.
INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS
"AAADJUSTER ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION
Install the adjuster assembly so that the shoe adjusting bolt
of left hand wheel is attached towards the rear of the vehicle,
and the shoe adjusting bolt of right hand wheel is towards
the front of the vehicle.
"BASHOE-TO-ANCHOR SPRING INSTALLATION
Install the shoe-to-anchor springs in the order shown in the
illustration.
NOTE
The figure shows the left wheel; for the right wheel, the position
is symmetrical.
INSPECTION
BRAKE LINING AND BRAKE DRUM CHECK
1. Measure the thickness of the brake lining at several places.
Standard value: 2.8 mm
Limit: 1.0 mm
2. If the thickness of the brake lining has worn down to
the limit value or more, replace the shoe and lining
assemblies on both sides of the vehicle.
3. Measure the inside diameter of the brake disc in two
places or more.
Standard value: 168.0 mm
Limit: 169.0 mm
4. If the inside of the brake disc has worn down to the
limit value or more, or if it is excessively worn on one
side, replace the brake disc.

STEERING -On-vehicle Service37A-7
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
STEERING WHEEL FREE PLAY CHECK
1. With engine running (hydraulic operation), set front wheels
straight ahead.
2. Measure the play on steering wheel circumference before
wheels start to move when slightly moving steering wheel
in both directions.
Limit: 30 mm or less
3. When play exceeds the limit, check for play on steering
shaft connection and steering linkage. Correct or replace.
4. If the free play still exceeds the limit value, set steering
wheel straight ahead with engine stopped. Load 5 N
towards steering wheel circumference and check play.
Standard value: 0 - 10 mm
5. If the play exceeds the standard value, remove steering
gear box and check total pinion torque. (Refer to
P.37A-17.)
STEERING ANGLE CHECK
1. Locate front wheels on turning radius gauge and measure
steering angle.
Standard value:
Inner wheel31_45’±1_30’
Outer wheel27_15’
2. When the angle is not within the standard value, the
toe-in is probably incorrect. Adjust the toe-in.
Standard value: 0±2mm
Adjust the toe-in by undoing the clip and lock nut, and
turning the left and right tie rod turnbuckles by the same
amount (in opposite directions).
3. Recheck the steering angle.
TIE ROD END BALL JOINT TURNING TORQUE
CHECK
1. Disconnect tie rod and knuckle with special tool.
Caution
(1) Loosen the nut of the special tool, but do not
remove it. If it is removed, the ball joint thread
may be damaged.
(2) Tie the special tool with a cord so as not to fall
off.

2. If the total rotation torque or torque fluctuation does not
meet the standard values, adjust by returning the rack
support cover within a range of 0 to 30_.
Caution
(1) Adjust around the maximum limit of the standard
values.
(2) See that no ratcheting or catching are present
when operating the rack towards the shaft
direction.
(3) Measure the total pinion torque through the whole
stroke of the rack.
3. If the adjustment is impossible in the given range, check
the components of the rack support cover, and replace
if necessary.
"LATAB WASHER/TIE ROD INSTALLATION
After installing the tie rod to the rack, fold the tab washer
end (2 locations) to the tie rod notch.
"MABELLOWS BAND INSTALLATION
1. Turn the adjusting bolt of the special tool to adjust the
opening dimension (W) to the standard value.
Standard value (W): 2.9 mm

Screw in the adjusting bolt.

Loosen the adjusting bolt.
NOTE
(1) The dimension (W) is adjusted by about 0.7 mm per
one turn.
(2) Do not turn the adjusting bolt more than one turn.
2. Use the special tool to crimp the bellows band.
Caution
(1) Hold the rack housing, and use the special tool
to crimp the bellows band securely.
(2) Crimp the bellows band until the special tool
touches the stopper.
