Radial Tire Lead / Pull DescriptionS7RS0B2401006
“Lead / Pull” is the deviation of the vehicle from a straight
path on a level road even with no pressure on the
steering wheel.
Lead is usually caused by the following conditions.
• Improper tire and wheel alignment.
• Uneven brake assemblies.
• 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 the figure (Lead Diagnosis) should be
used to make sure that wheel alignment is not mistaken
for tire lead.
• 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.
• Rear tires will not cause lead.
Balancing Wheels DescriptionS7RS0B2401007
There are two types of wheel an d tire balance: static and
dynamic. Static balance, as shown in figure, is the equal
distribution of weight around the wheel. Wheels that are
statically unbalanced cause a bouncing action called
tramp. This condition will eventually cause uneven tire
wear.
Dynamic balance, as shown in figure, is the equal
distribution of weight on each side of the wheel
centerline so that when the tire spins there is no
tendency for the assembly to move from side to side.
Wheels that are dynamically unbalanced may cause
shimmy.

2) Set brake pad springs (1), shim (2) and install brake pads (3).
NOTE
Install right side brake pad with wear
indicator (4) to vehicle center side.
3) Install caliper and tighten caliper pin bolts (a) to specified torque.
Tightening torque
Caliper pin bolt (a): 26 N·m (2.6 kgf-m, 19.0 lb-ft)
4) Install wheel and lower lift.
5) Tighten wheel nuts to specified torque. Tightening torque
Wheel nut (a): 85 N·m (8.5 kgf-m, 61.5 lb-ft)
6) After completion of installation, check for brake effectiveness.
Front Disc Brake Pad InspectionS7RS0B4206004
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 deposited in
lining and may damage disc. When pad lining
requires correction, replace it with a new one.
Front brake pad thickness (lining thickness)
Standard: 10 mm (0.40 in.)
Limit: 2 mm (0.08 in.)
NOTE
When pads are removed, visually inspect
caliper for brake fluid leak. Correct leaky
point, if any.
Front Disc Brake Caliper Removal and
Installation
S7RS0B4206005
Removal
1) Hoist vehicle and remove wheel.
2) Loosen flexible hose joint bolt (1) a little at caliper.
CAUTION!
Be careful not to twist flexible hose while
loosening the bolt.
3) Remove caliper pin bolts (1).
4) Remove caliper fr om caliper carrier.
5) Disconnect flexible hose fr om caliper using care not
to twist it. As this will allow brake fluid to flow out of
flexible hose, have a container ready beforehand.
